This sentence is badly constructed

Over the years, moments of interest from her post-Disney life would make headlines, like [...] her impassioned defense of then-nominee for Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford, who turned out to be her aunt.

It took me multiple reads to get to the end in one piece. Sometimes, you just need to throw out the sentence you started with and redo it from scratch. (It doesn't help that in the original form the sentence has another example, which I removed for clarity about which part I was criticizing. That part is fine, but it makes the sentence even longer.)
