HELP- The Sims 4! My sim won't show up in my household after starting game!

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
What is your current game version number? 1.102.190.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Horse Ranch, Cottage Living, Snowy Escape, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Island Living, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get together, Get to Work, Dream Home Decorator, Jungle Adventure, Sap Day, Outdoor Retreat, Nifty Knitting, Tiny Living, My First Pet, Laundry Day, Kids' Room, Romantic Garden, Perfect Patio
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I'm not sure. I don't have mods enabled and my sim came from the gallery, however it was a "blank" sim.
What happens when the bug occurs? I created a household of two people, both off the gallery. They both started off being "blank," (not entirely obviously). When I place them into a house, my girl sim cannot be played. She is physically there in game and my other sim can interact with her but I can't control her or do anything with her. I reset her, I tried using MC Command Center because it usually fixes that stuff but it didn't. I thought maybe it was because of my mods but even after I turned them off, it still kept doing it. I've even tried starting the game over entirely.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see both of my sims I created for the household in my household. I expect to be able to control both of my sims.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

I don't want to abandon the sims because I made them look like my BF and I and I HATE making sims.
