Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes had one of the most high-profile marriages of the early 2000s, and out of their relationship came their daughter, Suri Cruise. And now, the young woman is turning 18 today, on April 18!

Although she does not have a good relationship with her father, fans noticed that she resembles Tom when they saw her recently. Suri is ready to forge her own path in life, independent of her parents’ careers. According to reports, the young woman wants to make her own way in the fashion industry.

Although she has decided on a different route through life, Surie has shown off her acting talent in a high school play, in which she took on the role of Morticia in a musical version of “The Addam’s Family.” Besides breaking away from her parents’ career, Surie is also reportedly far from her dad’s religion, Scientology.

Tom and Katie divorced when Suri was just five. After her parents’ divorce, Suri did not see or speak to her father, and the pair still share a highly strained and estranged relationship. Although Tom said not having a relationship with his daughter was not an “ideal situation.”

He knew that when he and Katie split, things would change within their family dynamic, and accepted that. The actor confirmed that one of the reasons Katie had left him and kept their daughter from having a relationship with him was to protect Suri from the Church of Scientology.

Tom has been a Scientologist for many years. The church allegedly forbade the star from having a relationship with his daughter because she is not a Scientologist, yet a source effused:

“That is his loss, his issue, his problem. He must really be brainwashed.”

Leah Remini, an ex-Scientologist, once confirmed that Tom would see Suri as a “suppressive person” and think he could not be connected to her. Yet Suri’s success has remained strong. Katie‘s daughter hasn’t changed much since childhood.

What Did Suri’s Transformation Look Like over the Years?

When Suri was a little girl, she was all cute and chubby-cheeked. Her parents didn’t leave her at home always and opted to go out to different public occasions where the toddler was photographed looking her best.

Suri at Nearly a Year Old

Suri as a 1-Year-Old

When the little girl turned two, she was photographed after being spotted at a children’s store. Her similarity to her famous mother had become evident at this point, as she shyly held a teddy bear in the picture

Suri as a 2-Year-Old

A year later, the little appeared to have come into herself as she was seen waving to the cameras while inside a confectionary store. She had the same color eyes as her mother and her hair had grown out.

Suri as a 3-Year-Old

Two years later, the little girl had grown in height and her hair was even longer. It seemed her parents had ensured she learned how to swim at a young age, as she was seen at a pier wearing a cute swimming costume.

Suri as a 5-Year-Old

At age six, she seemed more confident in herself but was still very much into stuffed toys as she was photographed in New York City holding a teddy bar. She also looked more and more like Katie.

Suri as a 6-Year-Old

Fast-forward to a few years later, on April 18, 2016, Katie was photographed alongside her daughter who had just turned 10. The publication noted in the Instagram photo that the little girl had a growth spurt!

The following year, Suri’s looks were becoming more defined as she inched closer to teenagehood. Her hair was cut shorter as she attended another sporting event where she was photographed looking right at the camera.

Suri as an 11-Year-Old

On November 21, 2020, Tom’s daughter was now a teenager who seemed to be a lover of dogs as she was seen walking two of them in New York. The little girl appeared to lean more to her mother’s dress sense in a jean, sneakers, and jersey

At age 15 she was photographed several times with her actress mother going about their lives. Suri looked more and more like Katie and the little girl seemed to be getting taller by the day!

By age 16 Suri was almost undistinguishable from her mother. When she was photographed strolling around in New York in November 2022 while wearing a facemask, it was hard to tell that she wasn’t Katie. The pair even have the same eyes!

By the time she turned 17, she looked more like her beautiful mother’s sister than her teenage daughter! Tom’s child had the same lean body as Katie and was almost as tall as the actress. Suri was photographed at various times during that time.

Suri as a 17-Year-Old

By the time Suri turned 17, her looks had evolved more to accommodate both parents. Tom’s genes were clearly defined in the teenager, but she still favored her mother more. On June 25, 2023, she was photographed in Soho, New York, walking with some friends.

This time she looked like a proper adult, complete with a face full of makeup. For this outing, she wore a black tank top, a knee-length denim skirt, several silver bracelets, a black choker necklace, white socks, and black sneakers. In fact, she is ready to go to college in New York to study fashion.

Why Did Suri Divide Fans and How Does She Look Before Her 17th Birthday?

Katie and Suri have spent much of their time together since the former won sole custody of her daughter in the early 2000s. They have even struck fans with how alike they look and dress similarly as Suri nears her mother’s height.

Yet photos of Katie and Suri in New York in the last week of March 2023, had fans divided on who the teenager looked like more. As the mother and daughter stepped out together, some thought Suri looked just like her mom, and others thought she was more like her father. One even called her Tom’s “clone.”

Another photo of Suri and Katie showed the younger girl wearing a comfortable outfit of baggy jeans and a sweatshirt. The image prompted fans to say she looked just like her father, and they couldn’t believe she hadn’t seen him in so many years, while someone else stated:

Someone else who saw a picture of Tom’s daughter holding flowers during 2023’s Mother’s Day thought the teenager had certain features that made them certain that she looked more like the actor. The X or Twitter user wrote:

“Sorry everyone but Suri looks just like her dad! Look at her NOSE, & eyes…it’s unmistakably Tom. (IJS)

Suri is not only already grown up, but she has also shown off some of her talents, which are nothing similar to her mother and father’s acting talents. Yet her creativity shines through.

What Talents Has Suri Already Shown?

While Suri’s parents are both multi-award-winning actors, she has shown talents in the musical field instead. Her mother has even asked her to sing a cover of “Blue Moon,” which played over the opening credits of Katie’s production “Alone Together.”

Katie wrote the romantic comedy based on the quarantine period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The actress said she asked her daughter to do it because she believes she is “very, very talented” and only accepts the best talent on her projects.

Suri also sings in her mother’s film “Rare Objects,” which she shot in 2021. However, she has a relatively normal life when she is not working on big Hollywood projects with her mother. School and her friends take up her time.

While Katie has gone in a different direction with her career, she has slowed down and said she has taken up hobbies like painting, writing, and sewing. She passed her love of fashion on to her daughter.

Suri has sent out college applications to a couple of places, but Katie would like her to stay in New York so they can be close to one another. The actress’ daughter is “leaning toward” studying fashion in the Big Apple right now.

The teenager’s mother was once asked if Suri had seen “Dawson’s Creek,” and Katie revealed that she had, but explained that she never forced the 17-year-old to watch or have an interest in her work. However, during the pandemic, they laughed about the show, with Tom’s ex-wife confessing that it was “wild” having a daughter who’s almost the same age as she was when she began her career.

Ines De Ramon recently posed for Uter Official, a fashion brand that focuses on unisex, silk clothing. The brand’s clothes are designed in Los Angeles by Philippe Uter. Ines showcased their latest Spring/Summer collection, bringing her unique style to the campaign. However, she has another job when she is not modeling and a full life with Brad Pitt.

De Ramon posed for Uter Official’s Spring/Summer collection. The photoshoot took place outdoors, where Ines sat on a sun lounger wearing an unbuttoned shirt with a newspaper on her lap.

She also wore a vibrant orange hoodie in two other photos. In one, she lay on her side and looked straight at the camera. In another, she gazed up at the sky. More photos on Uter’s official website show Ines by a pool and standing in a stylish blue outfit.

De Ramon is not only a model but also a businesswoman. She is the vice president at Anita Ko Jewelry, where she helps lead the company. Besides her work in fashion and jewelry, Ines has a personal life that many people talk about. She was previously married to Paul Wesley, an actor known for “Vampire Diaries.” They were married in 2019 but decided to part ways in 2022.

Now, De Ramon is dating Brad Pitt, a famous actor. They have been together for almost two years. Ines often wears a necklace with a “B” pendant, which stands for Brad. The couple now live together in Pitt’s house in Los Angeles with those close to them saying they are happy and in love.

Pitt is a well-known actor who has starred in many films and has been awarded an Oscar. He was previously married to Jennifer Aniston and then Angelina Jolie, with whom he has six children. Pitt has recently starred in movies like “Bullet Train” and “Babylon.” He also has new movies coming soon, including one with costar George Clooney.

De Ramon is making a name for herself in the modeling world while also fostering her relationship with Pitt. Her work with Uter Official and her role at Anita Ko Jewelry show her diverse talents. At the same time, her relationship with Pitt is growing stronger as they share their lives together.

De Ramon’s divorce from Wesley has been an interesting topic for fans for some months now. We previously reported that their divorce had been finalized after quite some time

Ines de Ramon has recently stepped into the limelight as Brad Pitt’s younger girlfriend, capturing public attention with their budding romance. However, before her relationship with the Hollywood icon, she was best known in the entertainment industry as the wife of “Vampire Diaries” star Paul Wesley.

The couple’s journey together concluded with the recent finalization of their divorce, marking the end of their marital chapter that began in 2019.

According to court documents, de Ramon and Wesley signed the divorce papers on February 23. The filing then took place in Los Angeles County Superior Court shortly after. The documents highlight that de Ramon and Wesley “have entered into a written agreement regarding their property and their marriage or domestic partnership rights.”

A notable detail from the proceedings is de Ramon’s request to revert to her maiden name, pending only the judge’s approval to finalize the divorce. Her no contest to Wesley’s filing suggested an amicable split. Additionally, both parties agreed to give up the right to receive spousal support.

Although the actor initiated the divorce process in February 2023, citing irreconcilable differences, a representative for Wesley disclosed that the couple had mutually decided to part ways approximately five months prior, around April 2022.

This separation marks Wesley’s second, following his previous dissolution of marriage from his fellow “Vampire Diaries” co-star Torrey DeVitto in 2013.

After separating from Wesley, de Ramon found love again with Brad Pitt. The couple first sparked rumors of a romantic connection in November 2022, when they were seen together at a Bono concert in Los Angeles. At that time, their romantic relationship was not confirmed. They were also in the company of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber during the concert.

However, by the holiday season, speculations of their dating began to circulate widely. Their relationship eventually blossomed into a full-fledged romance that they did not hide but kept private.

In December 2023, the couple was seen enjoying a low-key celebration in Paris for Pitt’s 60th birthday. Despite their preference for privacy, the two couldn’t escape public attention during this intimate celebration

Pitt was the picture of relaxed elegance, stepping out in casual chic attire, his ensemble rounded off with aviator sunglasses. By his side, de Ramon exuded effortless style, her fashion choices adding a touch of understated glamour to the day’s festivities.

Their activities included an evening at the Théâtre du Châtelet to enjoy the melodies of Asaf Avidan and the delivery of ’60’ balloons, hinting at the thoughtful planning behind the celebration.

Like his girlfriend, Pitt’s long and tumultuous divorce from Angelina Jolie appears to be nearing its conclusion, with both parties making significant steps towards a settlement in February 2024. Court documents showed that the former lovers served their final disclosures to each other after years of little progression.

With Brad Pitt and de Ramon’s relationship going strong, the two have reportedly “become very close” with her famous boyfriend’s “inner circle of friends.” Although all seems to be fair and well with the pair, Pitt has yet to introduce his partner to his children, the source added:

“It’s not that he doesn’t love Ines; it’s just that he wants to ensure this relationship is going the distance before he takes that major step.”

The insider disclosed that Pitt, who shares six children – Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox – with former wife, Jolie – previously dated several other women in the past but never introduced them to his kids.

In March 2023, another source disclosed that de Ramon had yet to meet Pitt’s offspring or their mother. The insider added that the duo’s romance was “still fairly new” and that things would take a while to progress. The A-lister is reportedly content with his relationship with de Ramon and “isn’t in a rush” to take things to the next level unless they happen naturally.

A source at the time revealed in December 2022 that Pitt was “smitten” with the brunette beauty and was not “expecting to find someone extraordinary” like her. However, they were merely friends then.

The pair’s newfound romance was confirmed a month later, in late December 2022, and the two were reportedly enjoying each other’s company. All the while, Pitt has had to deal with legal drama between him and his ex-wife. But a source revealed in a July 2023 interview that de Ramon’s’ “feelings for him haven’t wavered whatsoever.”

The insider explained the ordeal had only strengthened the couple’s bond as they are transparent and honest about the happenings of their lives, regardless of them being good or bad.

The two remained together for several years before splitting up. They were unmarried with children, but Mills was content with where and who she was.

In 1983, after dating Holland for half a decade, a 37-year-old Mills spoke about her perspective on her relationship status as a happily unwed woman. The actress expressed:

“I don’t see any more security in being married than in not being married.”

The two resided in different houses as a testament to their non-commital yet serious entanglement. However, Mills admitted that there was a certain point where the two were basically cohabitating.

Donna Mills Gets Baby Fever

After Mills and Holland split, the actress focused, not on romantic relationships but her career. Although she said she didn’t have an aversion to having children, her focus on climbing the industry ladder got in the way. In her own words, she said:

“I was very concentrated on my career, but at a certain point, I realized there was something missing — it was a child.”

Mills explained that in her fifties, she began to recognize the heights of her baby fever when she had finished many of her projects. The actress recalled her jealousy toward mothers and their loving interactions with their children.

Donna Mills Adopts a Baby and Puts Career on Pause for 18 Years

At 54 years old, Mills adopted a four-day-old girl she named Chloe despite concerned reactions regarding her age at the time. She recalled:

She also spoke about reactions to her adoption of a child of color, stating that no one in her life had expressed any opinions. However, the doting mother did choose to join an organization that helped her address possible issues, such as looking after Chloe’s hair.

Mills does not only defend the choice of having a child so late in life but actively encourages it.

Mills decided to focus entirely on motherhood after welcoming Chloe because of how much she made throughout her successful career. In fact, at the height of her career, she gave up almost two decades of work to devote her time to Chloe. The actress recalled:

“Motherhood was what I wanted to experience, and so for 18 years, I really stopped doing everything else.”

She remembered still working in the film industry in the beginning stages of her motherhood, but when her daughter began her education, she prioritized parenthood.

Mills does not only defend the choice of having a child so late in life but actively encourages it. She expressed that it is excellent timing for individuals who want to build a successful career first.

According to the loving mother, she has maintained a close bond with her daughter, spending regular time together and keeping in consistent contact.

Mills continues to defy aging norms as she unapologetically refuses to go down the path of cosmetic enhancements.

Her Return to Hollywood: Donna Mills Defies Aging Norms Once Again

Hitting 82 years old and with her daughter at 28, age continues to be a non-factor in Mills’ life. She returned to Hollywood via an upcoming movie, “Dawn,” and recently took to Instagram to share a photo from the film, where her hair is shorter and gray. In the caption, she wrote:

“They say blondes have more fun…but I’m loving this white, what do you think?”

This photo perfectly captures an unafraid woman who embraces the aging process, with her caption implying this refreshing approach to life.

Individuals in the comment section praised Mills for her gorgeous picture. One commenter expressed that the actress would suit any hair color, with two exclaiming she is “beautiful no matter what.” One follower commented:

“It makes your beautiful eyes pop even more than they usually do!”

Instagram user _maid_to_the_stars wrote that Mills had not aged a day, while another expressed that the performer and mother looked like an “angel” and was “stunningly beautiful.” So far, the post has reached just over 8000 likes.

Mills continues to defy aging norms as she unapologetically refuses to go down the path of cosmetic enhancements or plastic surgery.

Commenting on this, she spoke about someone asking why she hasn’t considered cosmetic enhancements, with the actress confidently responding: “No, because I’m not going to look like a duck. I’d rather have lines than a duck bill.”

Another actress who recently challenged societal expectations regarding age is “Big Bang” alum Mayim Bialik who was unafraid to show off her gray hair online.

This was the first time Fin used their new name in public. Wearing a chic black suit and sporting a buzz-cut hairstyle, Fin—previously known as Seraphina Rose Affleck—approached the lectern and introduced themselves with, “Hello my name is Fin Affleck.”

Fin then proceeded to read a verse from the Bible that highlights how qualities like benevolence and honesty outweigh the materialistic value of being a bad person with a lot of wealth.

The service was to remember Jennifer’s dad who had died a week before at 85 years old. Jennifer had initially publicized her father’s passing by posting a tribute to him on Instagram, which mentioned how kind, strong, and doting he was.

She also emphasized how much of an impactful life he led and spoke about the lasting legacy he created for his family, a legacy which is now passed down to Fin and their siblings.

As the middle child of three, Fin has an older sister, Violet Affleck, who is 18, and a younger brother, Samuel Affleck, who is 12. Though their parents separated in 2015 and officially divorced in 2018, they still get along well for the sake of their children.

In 2022, Ben married famous musician, Jennifer Lopez, blending both of their families with the addition of Jennifer’s twins Emme and Max Muñiz. Like their stepsibling Fin, whom they share a great relationship with, Emme uses they/them pronouns.

Fin’s new name is a big change from their original name, Seraphina, which means “ardent” and “fiery” in Hebrew. It is also commonly used as a nickname for names like Finegan, Serafin, and Finian. According to a media source, their name was inspired by Seraphim angels and is one of the top-searched names on Nameberry.

The same source explains that these angels hold particular significance because of their six wings and the fact that they are the “highest-ranking angels.” In choosing the name for their teen, Jennifer Garner and Ben made it popular in contemporary spaces.

Drawing back to Fin’s journey of self-discovery, in them boldly asserting how they want to be addressed, Fin follows the same path as many other celebrity kids. This path sees them choose how they want to tell their own stories about who they are.

Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have mentioned how their child, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt preferred dressing like a boy as a kid and wanted to be called “John or Peter.”

Similarly, other stars like Jamie Lee Curtis and Dwyane Wade have shared their stories about supporting their kids who have come out as transgender.

When it comes to defining oneself, names and pronouns hold a significant level of importance as they can say a lot about who we are as people. As Fin Affleck starts using their new name, they are adding to a bigger conversation about the value of individuals embracing who they are.

Though their name might be new, this change is not the first time Fin has boldly embraced her self-identity. Earlier this year, they were seen rocking a vibrant hairstyle, exhibiting another form of self-expression.

They debuted a pink buzz cut, igniting a spectrum of reactions on social media. The change was revealed during a family outing in West Hollywood.

Accompanied by their father and Jennifer Lopez’s child, Emme, they were seen visiting a thrift store. They walked out with bags after shopping around. While Fin wore a flannel shirt with a T-shirt underneath and Adidas sneakers, Emme opted for shorts, a baggy hoodie, and Converse sneakers.

Social media responses to Fin’s new hairstyle were diverse. Comments included observations on their resemblance to their father, with one user noting, “Wow, she looks like her dad.” Similarly, another expressed, “She does look like her dad. She’s beautiful.”

Others expressed concerns about youth trends, with remarks such as, “They are destroying the youth in society today. Unfortunately, the parents are allowing it to happen.” Some comments, however, celebrated this phase of exploration, stating, “Totally normal youth behavior. Just deal,” and “I love her hair!”

Personal anecdotes were also shared, with individuals recounting their own or their children’s experiences during adolescence, highlighting the variety of ways young people express themselves. In this regard, someone else explained, “My daughter dressed like a Tomboy at that age and so did I.”

The reaction to Fin Affleck’s hair reflects broader societal conversations about youth and self-expression. Through the lens of this family outing, the public discourse navigates the complexities of individuality, parental guidance, and societal expectations.

Though their hair color was new, the teen was spotted sporting a buzz cut a few days earlier, which we previously reported on February 9. Fin was photographed while waiting for their school bus with their mom.

Photos shared online showed Fin wearing jeans, a beige sweater, and an olive-colored backpack, sporting a buzz cut. This edgy hairstyle change came after the teenager, who also wore earphones, was seen with a bob late last year. Images of Fin, born on January 6, 2009, prompted diverse comments from the public.

Of the young adolescent’s appearance, one person noted, “She looks like her dad with that shaved hair.” Similarly, another reiterated, “She looks like her father.” Someone else stated, “Sad what happened to this kid.”

Other social media users praised Fin’s hair, citing their opinions that they look good with a buzz cut. In this regard, one fan gushed, “It looks so cute on her!! So many women shave their heads in fashion.”

An admirer swooned, “Very adorable 💜.” Another social media user expressed, “Paying homage to Demi Moore! Showing her own style! I say a little color will make it pop!”

Although Fin, whose doting parents revealed their lovely name to media outlets seven days after they were born, has garnered significant traction online, they do not have a social media account. This decision was previously discussed by Jennifer Garner, who has kept her children off of social media.

Last year, Jennifer shared a conversation she had with her children. The “13 Going on 30” star divulged, “I just said to my kids, ‘Show me the articles that prove that social media is good for teenagers, and then we’ll have that conversation.'”

Jennifer went on to say that so far, her eldest daughter, Violet, has been appreciative of her mom’s decision not to allow them on social media. As a mother of two kids in their teens and with a son on the verge of teenagehood, the loving mom understands how “hard” it is “to be an adolescent.”

As far as how Violet, Fin, and Samuel’s doting dad feels about social media, the “Air” talent previously expressed, “I got to a place where [the public perception] was so different from who I am that I just stopped reading and stopped caring.”

However, Ben also spoke about the difficulty he experiences as his children get older and get more exposed to the internet. He specifically mentioned the false rhetoric that he is miserable based on pictures of his facial expressions.

According to his mother, Zanziman Ellie was a miracle baby. After many unsuccessful attempts, she finally gained the child she desperately wanted. Born with microcephaly, Ellie is one of a kind.

His condition has affected his features, and he has a smaller head than the average child. Throughout his life, he has been ridiculed for this. To escape the torment, he lived in the Rwandan jungle with his mom.

THE ONLINE COMMUNITY SUPPORTS ELLIE

Ellie never imagined that his unique looks would one day be why he was given a chance in life. While many from his community turned their backs on Ellie and shunned him, people online took an interest and decided to take action.

After a documentary about the young man was broadcasted on TV, a GoFundMe page was created to help get him the support and assistance he needed. People quickly reached out and offered Ellie and his mother the means to improve their lives.

GIVEN A SPECIAL EDUCATION

Ellie was also given the opportunity to get special education. Due to his condition, he has had issues with his mental capabilities. Now, he is a student at Ubumwe Community Center, Gisenyi, Rwanda.

For his first day at school, his sponsors also organized a special surprise. Ellie was spoilt with a dapper suit. It came complete with a waistcoat and jacket. He was beaming with joy as he wore the charming outfit.

“HAVING A GOOD LIFE”

Ellie’s mother thanked God for changing their lives. The mother expressed: “He was being ridiculed, and I would often run after him. At the moment, he is in school with his peers, and I am so happy. My son is having a good life.”

She was also given a home and stated that all of her former pain and anguish had been taken away. Ellie is a star, and he has come a long way since the days when bullies used to get him down

THE ONLINE REACTION

Netizens online were inspired by his story and praised those who helped him. One user wrote: “Imagine how happy his mom is right now, seeing her kid from being excluded from the society for years, to him being so happy right now.”

Another added: “This is what the internet should be used for!” Commenters wished him well and hoped that there would be no more bullying in his future. Now Ellie is ready to take on the world with his dazzling smile and fancy new suit!

The star rose to fame with his moving role in “Forrest Gump” as the son of the title character. This actor became a beloved figure in American cinema.

His career soared after starring in “The Sixth Sense” along with Bruce Willis and won critical acclaim. A year after this breakthrough, the child prodigy acted with Kevin Spacey and Helen Hunt in “Pay It Forward.” He then starred in Steven Spielberg’s “A.I. Artificial Intelligence,” the following year.

This early success laid the groundwork for his career. He would become the first millennial to receive an Oscar acting nomination but lost to Michael Caine.

From having an angelic look to a more mature appearance, here is the history-making child star who has significantly transformed through the years.

The Actor in 1994

In 1994, young Haley Osment charmed audiences with his boyish innocence. Images from that year show him with a cherubic face, framed by light brown hair.

He showed joyful curiosity in commercials and serious thought in film roles. While very young, he had a remarkable ability to convey deep emotions. Both audiences and critics loved this about him.

The child star fell into acting by chance. At the age of four, someone spotted him in Ikea. He first appeared on screen in a 1993 Pizza Hut ad. This led to an approach by “Forrest Gump,” director.

Forrest Jr was only a small part of 5-year-old Osment. But, his screen test with Tom Hanks still circulates on social media. This is thanks to their heartwarming double act.

Osment in 1997

By 1997, Osment still appeared in TV and film. His appearance during this period showed a slight change from his earlier years. The award-winning star began to grow into his features, with a more defined look. It hinted at the young adult he would soon become.

Osment in 1999

“The Sixth Sense” came out in 1999. It saw Osment change into a serious, thoughtful young star. His deep-set eyes and serious manner captured his character’s haunted feelings.

This role brought him global fame. It also secured his place in Hollywood. People saw him as a talented young actor with an old soul.

Director M Night Shyamalan had worried that Osment was too much of a “cherub” to cast in “The Sixth Sense.” But the boy was also serious-minded and precocious.

For Osment’s final audition of three for “The Sixth Sense,” he wore a suit. Shyamalan has said the boy’s vulnerability and depth moved him to tears. He was especially moved by Osment’s delivery of the now-classic line: “I see dead people.”

Osment in 2000

At the start of the new millennium, Osment attended the 72nd Academy Awards as a nominee. The event marked him as one of Hollywood’s top young talents.

Osment’s style had matured at this time. He seemed more polished at public events. His youthful charm now came with growing sophistication.

He also found himself back at school where he was not treated as a celebrity. Then in fifth grade, Osment admitted that it was a “shift in gear,” as he found it easier to navigate.

“The Sixth Sense,” at the time was considered unsuitable for kids under 13. Most of Osment’s classmates did not even get to see the Oscar-nominated film.

Meanwhile, the movie’s star’s sister, Emily Osment, had “a way tougher path” to fame. She is best known for appearing in the popular Disney series, “Hannah Montana,” alongside Miley Cyrus.

The actress’s older brother explained that she had to deal with the invasion of privacy while starring in the show. This deprived her of having a normal life.

Osment further explained what made things worse was that his sibling had to be on social media. Unlike her, he resisted until he was 27 years old.

Osment in 2002

By 2002, Osment still worked on the big screen but under the radar. Not many recognized him as the child that starred in “The Sixth Sense.”

He had done voice work for films like “The Country Bears” and ” The Jungle Book 2,” showing his versatility. Moreover, his looks began to show signs of adolescence.

His face became more angular and he had a teenage growth spurt. It made him look very different from the young boy America had first loved.

Osment in 2005

In 2005, Osment’s looks had changed as he had grown taller. This reflected his shift from a child star to a young adult actor.

Osment in 2006

The year 2006 was tumultuous for Osment. It involved a highly publicized drunk driving incident that resulted in an arrest. In mug shots from this time, he looked like a young man. This was a stark contrast to his polished public image in earlier years.

Osment suffered multiple injuries including a fractured rib and a hurt shoulder. He was charged with driving under the influence and underage drinking.

The then 18-year-old relocated to New York to study experimental theatre at New York University. His parents wanted him to experience college life and so did he.

“I did work that practically nobody saw for a long time, which was not a great career move – but, ultimately, was important for me to figure out whether this was what I truly wanted to do for the rest of my life,” Osment once said.

Osment in 2007

By 2007, Osment was working to rebuild his career and image. His roles during this period showed a more mature perspective. He chose projects that showed his depth as an actor. He did not rely on the innocent charm of his youth.

Osment in 2008

In 2008, Osment made his Broadway debut, a significant step in his career. His look was more mature. It had the start of facial hair.

His role as a heroin addict in “American Buffalo” let him explore dark, complex themes. “That was definitely a very fun period of playing a lot of bad guys,” Osment admitted in a 2020 interview.

This experience also further distanced him from his child-star persona. He agreed that it might have been an act of rebelliousness against his angelic childhood image.

Osment in 2012

In 2012, Osment took on the role in the film “Sassy Pants.” It showed his ability to play against type. He looked very different but still had youthful features.

The movie star had a pinch-his-cheeks-cute face which was rounder. Additionally, his body was a lot beefier, than in his youth.

His performance in “Sassy Pants” was as a quirky, unconventional character. It won him praise and showed his willingness to push acting’s boundaries.

Notably, Osment’s look was fuller and had a well-groomed beard. It matched his shift to more mature and nuanced characters. He looked unrecognizable after gaining weight.

Social media users expressed shock at how Osment looked entirely different than before. They took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to comment on his weight gain.

“Just noticed Haley Joel Osment in the ending credits of ‘What We Do in the Shadows.’ I’m like who? When? Had to google it omg completely unrecognizable,” wrote one person. Another said, “Can we talk about how Haley Joel Osment is almost unrecognizable in this?”

Someone else penned, “Does this man make you wonder why Haley Joel Osment gained so much weight? Almost unrecognizable. Such an incredible actor and now no parts for Haley.”

However, Osment was okay with appearing different. “I would say it’s fine that it’s unrecognizable. It’s good. […] there’s those sort of roles that give you the opportunity to undergo a transformation like that are really really kind of fun,” Osment lamented.

He played a tech-savvy character and his look was clean and modern. It fit the tech theme of the show. He had a sharp wit and timing that resonated well with audiences.

During this period, Osment had a full-grown beard. The star revealed that he grew a beard “to try to hide in public. That didn’t really work at all.”

Having grown up in the limelight, Osment’s upbringing is not cliched like that of fellow child stars. He once commented on working as a child saying there is an expectation for negative experiences along the way.

“But I think there are a lot more stories of people who had positive experiences working as children and didn’t have that kind of cliched storyline going forward. And that’s been the case for me,” Osment explained.

Osement still receives recognition for transforming his abilities and dedicating himself to his craft. “Nice to see a child actor turned out normal,” commented one user. Another wrote, “This guy is still absolutely adorable. He has such a tremendous presence and seems to really have fun with what he does and not take it too seriously.”

“He’s so cute he seems like he would be good at hugging,” one individual expressed. Someone else echoed, “He looks like a huge cuddly teddy bear!!! I just wanna give him a BIG hug!!!!”

“It’s pretty apparent that he grew up to be a very intelligent actor. I see him as the next Phillip Seymour Hoffman,” one social media user stated.

Osment was a child prodigy. Now, he is a versatile actor. He has made bold choices and delivered transformative performances throughout his career.

Each year has marked a big step in his journey. This is true not in his chosen roles but in his physical change. He has become almost unrecognizable from his days as a child star.

In the 1980s, several female stars not only dazzled on screen but also captured hearts with their stunning looks. Decades later, these stars have embraced motherhood, introducing daughters who exhibit their distinct brand of beauty, different from that of their mothers.

From Jaclyn Smith to Tina Louise and Kathleen Turner, let’s explore how these famous figures from yesteryears have transitioned from screen sirens to proud mothers, with children who mirror a beauty unlike their own.

Jaclyn Smith and Spencer Margaret Richmond

At 78, beloved veteran actress Jaclyn Smith remains widely recognized for her memorable role in the television hit “Charlie’s Angels,” which aired from 1976 to 1981.

In December 1985, four years after the show concluded, she welcomed her daughter Spencer Margaret Richmond. Now 38, Richmond is the youngest of Smith’s two children, with an older brother, Gaston Richmond.

In a 2008 interview, Smith shared her views on balancing work and family. “Family is always first. Even though my kids are older—my son is 25 and my daughter is 21—I still like to sit down and have dinner with them as much as I can,” she expressed.

This home-focused lifestyle also led to a creative venture; in August 2017, Smith and her daughter launched the infant wear line, Spencer by Jaclyn Smith.

Richmond expressed her enthusiasm for the collaboration, highlighting its significance as a new mother herself. “As a new mom, I know the importance of finding the right staples for your baby. I saw this collaboration as a great opportunity to create affordable, durable, and ultra-soft baby wear options,” she explained.

Aside from collaborating with her famous mom, Richmond also looks slightly different from her. Early photographs of Smith holding a young Richmond show the doting mother’s soft features including cheekbones, visible eyebrows, and curly hair. Meanwhile, Richmond displayed round cheeks and curly hair.

As adults standing side by side, the contrast becomes more evident. Richmond sports a rounder face, fuller lips, and a straight nose, while mom maintains her high cheekbones and slim face.

Over the years, photos consistently show these differences, with Spencer’s features remaining softer compared to Smith’s more defined jawline and cheekbones.

Shelley Long and Juliana Long Tyson

Best known for her portrayal of Diane Chambers on “Cheers,” Shelley Long, 74, has garnered an Emmy and two Golden Globes throughout her illustrious career. The show spanned from 1982 until 1993, during which Long took a break to focus on her family, welcoming her daughter Juliana Long Tyson in March 1985.

Today, at 39, Tyson is the CEO and Creative Director of Good Juju Ink, per her LinkedIn profile. It is a decade-old illustration design company based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

She is not just a businesswoman but also deeply family-oriented, having married her childhood neighbor, John Kissick, in 2015. The couple reconnected nearly twenty years after first knowing each other. Juliana, originally from Pacific Palisades, now lives in Oakland, California.

In addition to her life now, Tyson has turned out differently compared to her mother in terms of physical appearance. Long’s facial features include a broad forehead and a noticeable smile.

Meanwhile, Tyson’s facial structure is more oval compared to her mother’s more rounded face. Notably, her eyes are wide and her cheekbones are more pronounced. Both mother-and-daughter duo have a bright, engaging smile.

Kathleen Turner and Rachel Ann Weiss

Kathleen Turner, 69, became a household name with the 1981 thriller “Body Heat.” The actress welcomed her daughter Rachel Ann Weiss six years after the film’s release. Weiss, now 36, followed in her mother’s footsteps by venturing into acting, with roles in films such as “Little Monsters” and “The Balancing Act.”

Turner has always supported her daughter’s career in both acting and music. In a 2013 interview, Weiss mentioned that her mom attended all of her performances whenever possible

Five years later in 2018, Turner shared she imparted crucial life lessons to her daughter. The star emphasized bravery and the importance of speaking up, especially in the challenging show business environment. “Be brave,” she advised, a testament to her own experiences with discrimination in her career.

While living their lives in the spotlight, it has become apparent that the mother-and-daughter duo do not look that much alike. Images depict Turner with a wider face and a distinct jawline, while her daughter Weiss appears with a slimmer face and higher cheekbones.

As Turner’s features softened with age, maintaining a broad facial structure, Weiss’s face remained narrow with more pronounced features. This shows a blend of her mother’s traits but with her unique distinctions.

Joan Van Ark and Vanessa Marshall

Joan Van Ark, 80, known for her role in the soap opera “Dallas” and its spin-off “Knots Landing,” was already a mother when these series began. Her daughter, Vanessa Marshall, born in October 1969, grew up to pursue a career in acting too.

Marshall, who remains proud of her mom’s efforts in the entertainment industry, particularly does voice acting. She has notable roles in “Wonder Woman” and “Star Wars Rebels.

In addition to working in the same industry, Marshall and Van Ark share a striking resemblance. They both possess slim faces and pronounced cheekbones, though Marshall has slightly fuller cheeks and a broader smile.

Tina Louise and Caprice Crane

Tina Louise is iconic for her role as Ginger Grant in “Gilligan’s Island” and is the surviving member of the cast. The 90-year-old chose family life over fame following the show’s conclusion in 1967. Three years later, the veteran star disappeared from the limelight. Since the early 1970s, she did not appear on-screen, and people wondered where she was.

It was not until 1973 that the veteran star explained why she had not been working. Louise revealed she became a parent during that time, having welcomed her daughter Caprice Crane in November 1970.

The TV star further explained she had to decide between being a working mother or caring for her child. At the time she talked about her hiatus, Crane was already in nursery school, giving Louise leeway to get back to work again.

She acknowledged that she had to make a living to support herself and expressed excitement at returning to the big screen. Things had changed for the better; Louise saw herself doing much more than acting like modeling or doing commercials.

Meanwhile, unlike her famous mom, Crane took a different path in the industry. She began working behind the camera as a screenwriter and has credits in shows like the “90210” and “Melrose Place” reboots. The brunette also achieved success as a novelist.

Besides work, Crane has expressed immense adoration for her mom. She paid a birthday tribute to her in February 2023 alongside a lengthy heartwarming message and a throwback photo.

Crane captioned her post: “Happy happy birthday to my beautiful mama! I’m grateful every day that I can pick up the phone and call you…You are the most precious mama and YaYa and we all love you more than you can possibly imagine.”

Louise has embraced her role as a mother and grandmother, often sharing heartfelt moments with her family on social media. In a 2022 post, she described the joy of attending her grandchildren’s birthday party. “Best children’s birthday party I have ever been to! So much fun! My daughter Caprice Crane did a super job planning,” Louise wrote.

Over the years Louise has been pictured with her daughter and the photos show how much the pair look different from each other. In their early photo, Louise’s face is heart-shaped with high cheekbones and a distinct jawline.

In contrast, Crane has a youthful appearance with rounded cheeks and a less visible jaw. As she matures, her facial structure elongates and her cheekbones become more defined, creating a sharper contrast with her mother’s heart-shaped contour and prominent jaw.

Later images showcase Crane’s evolution, with her facial features developing a more apparent definition, distinct from Louise’s softer yet structured facial aesthetics. In the most recent photos, her face has matured with a stronger bone structure, featuring a more prominent chin and angular lines that set her apart from her mother’s classic features.

Beverly D’Angelo and Olivia Pacino

Beverly D’Angelo, 72, is an actress who starred in the “National Lampoon’s Vacation” series. She later had twins with actor Al Pacino in January 2001. Their daughter, Olivia Pacino, now 23, represents a new generation carrying forward her mother’s artistic spirit.

D’Angelo’s reflections on motherhood and co-parenting highlight her deep connection to her family. This is despite the challenges that came with raising twins as a single parent from the age of 51.

She and the acclaimed actor had a bitter custody battle following their split but have since mended fences. This experience prompted D’Angelo to reflect. She said, “When you focus on getting pregnant, you can lose the perspective that you’re creating a family and a responsibility to a child’s future.”

Since D’Angelo and her ex decided to put their differences behind them, she has focused on being a better mom for their children. The star’s only daughter is now a young woman who has her own attractive features compared to hers.

Photos show D’Angelo with a rounder face and fuller cheeks. While Pacino presents with an oval face and higher cheekbones, illustrating subtle yet distinct differences from her mother.

Catherine Bach and Sophia and Laura Lopez

Catherine Bach, known as Daisy Duke from “The Dukes of Hazzard,” faced personal tragedies and triumphs. After the show, she endured a tumultuous personal life, including the loss of her husband Peter Lopez in 2010.

Bach found solace in faith and her daughters, Sophia Lopez, 28, and Laura Lopez, 25. Today, as her daughters forge their paths—Laura as a real estate agent—Bach continues to be a pillar of strength and resilience for her family.

Aside from flourishing, Bach’s daughters show differences in facial features—both having softer, rounder faces. This is in contrast to their mother’s more defined features, evident in a series of photographs over time.

As time passes, the Hollywood star’s daughters continue to show softer features. Meanwhile, Bach’s defined features gently distinguish her from Sophia and Laura.

Kelly LeBrock and Arissa LeBrock

Kelly LeBrock debuted in the film “The Woman in Red” and starred alongside Steven Seagal in “Hard to Kill.” LeBrock and Seagal were more than just co-stars. The pair married in 1987 and welcomed their first child, Annaliza Seagal, 37, that same year.

The couple expanded their family when they had their son Dominic Seagal in June 1990 followed by their youngest daughter, Arissa LeBrock, 30, in July 1993 in Los Angeles, California.

Two years later in 1996, their marriage ended in divorce. LeBock later chose to step away from Hollywood to focus on raising her children following her divorce from Seagal.

In a candid 2017 interview, the actress discussed the challenges and rewards of her life away from the limelight. She chose a secluded life in Southern California to provide a stable environment for her children.

The kids are now all grown up and the youngest possesses different features from her parent. Arissa contrasting her mother, shows a more angular face with pronounced cheekbones and jawline. This is a clear divergence from LeBrock’s softer facial structure.

These stories of beauty icons from the ’80s and their daughters illustrate the diversity of beauty across generations, emphasizing that while some traits are passed down, each individual shines with their unique allure.
