Supermodels' Kids Who Look Just Like Their Famous Parents

It can be easy to spot a mother-daughter pair or mother-son pair, with their similar appearances and gestures. Supermodels, of course, are no different. Many of the world's most famous supermodels have children who are now grown, making it simple to spot their similarities. In fact, many of them have even followed in their famous parents' footsteps with an impressive modeling career themselves. And the ones who chose to only dabble in the industry or go another route entirely are making their mark in their own chosen paths.

While Kaia Gerber, daughter of Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber, may be one of the most well-known supermodel offspring, many others are also making their mark. From Lila Grace Moss-Hack, daughter of Kate Moss and Jefferson Hack, and Grier Hammond Henchy, who calls Brooke Shields "Mom," to Leni Klum, Heidi Klum and Seal's model daughter, and Sailor Brinkley-Cook, who's unmistakably Christie Brinkley's daughter, these supermodels' kids look just like their famous parents.

In the 1990s, Kate Moss rose to fame for her Calvin Klein ads, her tiny frame which helped launch the mid-'90s "heroin chic" fad, and her tumultuous relationship with Johnny Depp.

In September 2002, the supermodel gave birth to a daughter named Lila, whom she shares with her ex, Jefferson Hack. Today, Lila Grace Moss-Hack is all grown up and looks just like her famous mom. The two have even walked the runway together during Paris Fashion Week in 2021, an event which marked Moss' return to the runway.

Moss-Hack, who's signed to her mother's Kate Moss Agency, initially made her modeling debut as the face of Marc Jacobs' campaign in 2018. "Lila's strong character, demeanor and great beauty was already very apparent," Jacobs said of the young model in an Instagram post, going on to reminisce about meeting her mom for the first time. "This past July is the last time I saw Lila when Kate brought her to the set ... It was a bit surreal to have Kate in the studio with Lila as it brought back memories..."

In November 2020, Moss told British Vogue how she felt upon seeing her daughter on the runway for the first time in an earlier show. "I was really nervous for her," she said, adding, "When she came out we were like, 'She's doing it! She's doing it!' Yeah, I was really proud."

In 2020, Heidi Klum's daughter, Leni Klum, whom the supermodel shares with ex-husband Seal, turned 16 and was deemed old enough to model, according to her protective mom. "I always thought she was too young. We always also decided to keep the children out of the public eye," Heidi told People TV, explaining that, while her daughter received many offers to model over the years, she always turned them down. "But she's driving a car now, she's 16, so I figured if you can do that, you can also model now if this is what you wish to do."

As it turns out, Leni enjoys it just as much as her famous mom, the longtime host of "America's Next Top Model" and judge on "America's Got Talent." "She kind of comes [on set] and looks and learns not just what I do but also what all the different people are doing on a TV set," the supermodel said of her daughter's introduction to the industry. "When you're that age you're still trying to figure out who you are, what you want to be and kind of see for the first time what are all these different jobs to make a TV show happen. She does want to do what I do."

Sistine Stallone gets her good looks and talent from her model-turned-skincare entrepreneur mom, Jennifer Flavin, and her actor dad, the iconic Sylvestor Stallone. As a teen, Sistine thought she'd follow in her mother's footsteps as a model. "I don't enjoy acting as much as I love modeling. I was drawn to the art and craftsmanship of what goes into creating unique images," she told Vogue in 2016.

However, the acting bug did hit eventually, as she starred in 2019's "47 Meters Down: Uncaged" and 2021's "Midnight in the Switchgrass," appearing alongside the legendary Bruce Willis as well as real-life couple Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly. Additionally, Sistine hosts a podcast called "Unwaxed" with her sister, Sophia Stallone.

The model-actress-podcast host has developed a strong work ethic from her former supermodel mom, who made a name for herself in the modeling world in the early 1990s. Watching her own mother struggle to pay the bills influenced Jennifer's drive early on. "I stayed really focused because I didn't have a backup plan," she once told Haute Living. What are some of the lessons mom has shared with her daughter? "She has taught me to show up on time and be willing to do what it takes to deliver the photographer's vision," Sistine told Vogue, "arrive a little bit early, stay a little bit later, and work as hard as you can in between."

When it comes to this supermodel mother-daughter duo, it can be difficult to tell them apart! Christie Brinkley and younger daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook, whom Brinkley shares with ex-husband Peter Cook, can often be spotted seated front row at fashion shows and even have shared the modeling spotlight during events such as Elie Tahari's 2019 show during New York Fashion Week.

Modeling apparently comes naturally for the striking young blonde, who also shared the spotlight with Brinkley and her older sister, Alexa Ray Joel, whose dad is Brinkley's ex-husband Billy Joel, when the group was asked to pose together for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition in 2017 – a moment Brinkley almost "couldn't even believe."

The supermodel had famously appeared in the magazine eight times from 1975 to 2004 and is the only model to ever grace the front cover three years in a row (or even two years in a row, for that matter). "This is a real full circle moment for me," Brinkley said while on set. "How many years ago, I was that insecure girl hoping that I would be good enough for the magazine. So to see my daughters now having the same thoughts I had, and to be able to see them actually be there on the job, was definitely a big moment."

Anansa Sims, daughter of the legendary Beverly Johnson, shares her mother's beauty and intellect. Posing together on the red carpet more than once over the years, their connection is obvious. In a personal essay for Vogue's September 2009 issue, Johnson, who made history as the first African-American woman to grace the cover of Vogue, wrote that, apart from making modeling history, the only other "thrilling thing" that happened in her life was the birth of her daughter. 

Sims dabbled a bit in modeling early on. In 2009, the curvy Sims appeared in a spread for Glamour alongside plus-sized models Ashley Graham, Kate Dillon, Amy Lemons, Lizzie Miller, Crystal Renn, and Jennie Runk in an inclusive effort to feature all types of bodies that are beautiful.

Despite her modeling experience, Sims decided to carve her own path separate from her mother. According to her Instagram bio, she earned a Master of Business Administration and a Bachelor of Arts. Forging a more traditional academic path is actually not all that different from her mother, who had studied law in Boston before her modeling career took off. The wife, mom of four, and stepmom of two, as her bio notes, also loves real estate and is an advocate for self-love, something we've garnered as much from her appearance in Glamour.

While thus far we've featured the daughters of supermodels, sons can look just like their supermodel moms as well! Brooklyn Beckham, son of former Spice Girl and model-turned-fashion designer Victoria Beckham and soccer star dad David Beckham, has his mother's love of fashion.

In 2014, Brooklyn made his modeling debut when he posed at the young age of 15 for the cover of Man About Town magazine, a high-end men's publication published twice a year. The Daily Mail remarked at the time that the young Beckham had his "dad's looks and m[o]m's pout."

These days, Brooklyn is still modeling along with his other professional pursuits, which include photography and cooking. He's also become an environmental activist passionate about the importance of sustainability, which has impacted his sense of style. While his designer of choice for red carpet events is Dior, he told GQ that he stopped spending tons of money on clothes because he used to buy too much and "never wear any of it." "People who want to still buy clothes really should go and shop from sustainable and eco-friendly brands. There's so many out there that are doing good when it comes to ethical sourcing of fabrics and materials," he said.
