There’s a certain allure to celebrities getting together, which seems to be magnified by the celebrity kids that may be borne out of these romances (and occasional dramas).
Sometimes, these children follow in their parents’ footsteps and other times they may rarely be in the public eye. But one thing’s for sure, when there’s a lookalike vibe it can take us right back to the start of a famous relationship (or the search archives, if it was before your time).
Here, we round up 22 examples of celebrities with kids who look just like them.
Nicole Kidman And Keith Urban with their teen daughters, Sunday and Faith
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s teenage daughters, Sunday (15) and Faith (13) joined their famous parents on the red carpet for Kidman’s lifetime achievement award.
Sunday, with her blonde hair and porcelain complexion, looks exactly like her Kidman. Faith, who also shares similarities with her parents, has darker locks.
The family was also joined by Kidman’s sister, Antonia Kidman and her daughter Sybella Hawley (17).
Nicole also shares two adopted children, daughter, Bella (31) and son, Connor (29), with ex Tom Cruise.
Naomi Watts and Kai Schreiber
Naomi Watts, 55, attended Dior’s pre-fall show in New York in 2024, alongside her lookalike youngest daughter Kai Schreiber, 15. The pair were relaxed alongside an all-star front row including Alexandra Daddario, Michelle Williams, Rachel Zegler and Anya Taylor-Joy.
Kai, a student, looked stunning in a skirt and sweater outfit by Dior, while Watts also wore a crisp white dress from the label.
Watts shares Kai and her brother Alexander with ex-partner Liev Schreiber. She is now married to American actor Billy Crudup.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Apple Martin
Gwyneth Paltrow posted a snapshot to her Instagram feed showing a lazy day of lounging and soaking up the sun with daughter, Apple Martin, in 2020. Aside from their abundant sunshine and luxurious outdoor bed, Paltrow and her daughter look like a spitting image of each other.
Harlow Madden, Sparrow Madden, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden
The Maddens attended the premiere of Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead in Los Angeles, and there was a clear resemblance between mother and daughter, and father and son.
Harlow (16) appears to have inherited her mother’s hazel eyes and smile, wearing a bandeau top and leather-look flares for the occasion. Likewise, Sparrow (14) resembles his dad, in rocker-style baggy jeans and neck chain, with the same blue eyes. They were pictured with Nicole’s mum, Brenda Harvey-Richie.
The family are rarely pictured in public, with 2024 proving to be the family’s red carpet debut.
Thandiwe Newton and Nico Parker
When Westworld star Thandiwe Newton took her then-15-year-old daughter to the Dumbo premiere in 2019, the mother-daughter pair matched in velvet gowns. Not only do the two share a similar sense of style, with Newton in a crimson Oscar de la Renta look and Parker in green Gucci, they also look alike.
Catherine Zeta-Jones and Carys Zeta Douglas
In 2018, the resemblance between Catherine Zeta-Jones and daughter Carys Zeta Douglas caused a stir in the media after they attended the Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda women’s couture event at the New York Metropolitan Opera House. More recent photos from Carys’s Instagram reveal they still look very similar – she could practically play a younger Zeta-Jones if there was a movie that called for it.
Elizabeth Hurley and Damian Hurley
Not only does Damian Hurley look like his mum, he’s followed in her footsteps, with his first acting role in The Royals in 2016-18. He also revealed on the Today show the advice she gave him before starting, “Learn your lines and don’t be annoying.” Liz Hurley posted this snap on Instagram with her son when he was 18 and we had to do a double take!
Alessandra Ambrosio and Anja Ambrosio
The supermodel mum shared this snap with her doppelgänger daughter during a family holiday in Mykonos when Anja was a kid. She’s all grown up now, and still looks like her mum, as an Instagram post from early 2024 revealed.
Kris Jenner and Kylie Jenner
Kylie has no qualms about looking and dressing like her famous mum, stealing Kris’ swimsuit from the ’80s to wear during a birthday vacation to Mexico.
Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber
The original supermodel’s daughter is the spitting image of her famous mother. Gerber’s even following in her mother’s footsteps by signing to IMG models and walking major runways.
Reese Witherspoon and Ava Phillippe
Reese Witherspoon and her daughter Ava, look so similar that the mother and daughter duo could pass as twins. Or, if they ever decided to re-make Cruel Intentions (not that they need to), we know who would be top of the cast list.
Susan Sarandon and Eva Amurri
Susan Sarandon’s daughter Eva Amurri has definitely inherited her Oscar-winning mother’s striking looks.
Jessica Simpson and Maxwell Drew
Jessica Simpson’s daughter Maxwell may be a baby in this photo, but she already had her mother’s red-carpet moves mastered. And a post Simpson shared for Maxwell’s 11th birthday (2023) shows the resemblance has grown since then.
David Beckham and Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz
All the Beckham boys are spitting images of their father, David. Here, David, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz pose in their adorable matching suits at the world premiere of The Class of ’92 in London back in December 2013.
Kanye West and North West
The father-daughter duo looked alike even in slumber when North West was a very little kid. Check out their coordinated grey lounge wear! Now a bit older, North has gone on to share a TikTok account with mum Kim Kardashian (@kimandnorth), and there’s a clear resemblance to both of this celebrity kid’s parents.
Hillary Clinton and Chelsea Clinton
Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her daughter Chelsea are one and the same in both looks and political mindedness. Here, they are at the Clinton Global Initiative event at the University of Miami.
Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise
Katie Holmes and Suri have looked alike for many years, but when the stylish pair were out and about in NYC in 2013, they seriously looked like twins.
Julianne Moore and Liv Moore
Julianne and Liv Moore looked identical while attending the Reed Krakoff fashion show together in New York back in 2013. More recent photos shared by Moore are proof that you can’t outgrow your genes (and may not want to if your parents look like this!).
Will Smith and Jaden Smith
Here, the father-son duo flash big smiles at the premiere of BRIGHT in Los Angeles in 2017. Jaden has famously followed his father into acting, including a starring role in the Netflix show The Get Down.
Uma Thurman and Maya Thurman
Prior to her role on Stranger Things, Maya Thurman Hawke and her mother, Uma Thurman, could have passed as sisters. The glamorous mother-daughter duo certainly proved our point as they arrived at the Giorgio Armani Couture Spring Summer show in 2019. We can also see hints of dad Ethan Hawke in her looks, too.
Heather Locklear and Ava Sambora Locklear
Heather Locklear’s daughter with ex-husband Richie Sambora is all grown up, and is the spitting image of her famous mum. Ava Sambora (also known as Ava Locklear) has worked as both an actor and model, making her another celebrity kid who’s followed in her parents’ footsteps.
Tina Fey and Alice Richmond
Comedic actress Tina Fey and her mini-me Alice attend opening night of Mean Girls on Broadway in New York City in 2018.
Demi Moore and Rumer Willis
When it comes to Demi Moore and her daughter Rumer Willis, their striking similarities have us seeing double.
