Everyone knows celebrities have won the genetic lottery with their good looks and most of them have passed them to their equally good-looking children, creating the next generation of Hollywood superstars.
We scoured the internet and found celebrity parents and kids who look almost identical to each other, from habits to hairstyles to have the same face! The resemblance is striking, read on and see for yourself.
PRINCE WILLIAM & PRINCESS DIANA
In August 1997, the world was devastated when beloved Princess Di died in a car accident and while the world mourned, no one was as shattered as her children, Prince William and Harry.

While the princess never got to see her children grow up, her kids have kept her legacy alive, especially Prince William. The two do not just mirror each other in character but share a striking physical resemblance. From the nos to the eyes, this picture is proof that Prince William is more Diana than Charles.
Prince George and Prince William
And of course, just as Prince William shared his looks with his mother, his own first-born and he are identical. Out of the three children of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince George is the most like his father.

This cute throwback picture of Prince William when he was about the same age as Prince George fully shows the extent of their similar physical similarities. We love that little prince George even dresses up like his father! Only time will tell if he retains his original royal look or grows up to look more like his mother, Kate Middleton.
Princess Charlotte and Duchess Catherine
As Prince George is his father’s mini-me, Princess Charlotte is all her mother. Some even comment on how she looks a lot like Queen Elizebeth II as well, but all we see is Kate Middleton in her, especially in this side-by-side comparison.

Princess Charlotte seems to have her mother’s eye, nose as well as smile. And royal insiders also reveal how she has also inherited her mother’s love for the outdoors and is quite a rambunctious child.
Princess Eugenie and Sarah Ferguson
With Princess Eugenie just giving birth to her first child recently, we can’t wait to see who baby August takes after more but before we can do that, we can’t ignore Princess Eugenie’s own resemblance to her mother.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Sarah Ferguson, Duchess Of York has used her royal career and divorce to turn herself into a TV personality and writer. Though she and Eugenie haven’t lived together since her parent’s divorce when she was only six years old, the mother-daughter still share a strong relationship and very good genes by the looks of it.
JANE CARREY & JIM CARREY
Jim Carrey’s personal life might have been a mess, but the comic-star has been a great father to his only child. Jane Carrey was born in 1987 after Jim’s whirlwind romance with Melissa Womer, a waitress, and actress. Throughout her childhood, Jane, who has her father’s smile, saw quite a bit of ups and downs.
Source: HealthyGeorge
She could have lived a luxurious life thanks to her father’s fat bank account, but Jane wanted to make a name for herself. The young mother has been waitressing for a living and wants to pursue a career in music. She did audition for American Idol but got eliminated soon after. Nevertheless, we hope she continues to fight for her dreams, seeing as her father has chosen retirement already.
LILY-ROSE DEPP & JOHNNY DEPP
Lily-Rose was born in 1999 to Johnny Depp and the french singer Vanessa Paradis, the beautiful couple’s genes certainly were passed to their eldest daughter. Her parents who were never married, split in 2012 after 14 years. Lily-Rose is paving her acting career, but also her modelling career is rising, as she was picked to be the face of Chanel’s fragrances.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Lily-Rose is working hard these days on different films and attending famous film festivals such as Sundance Film Festival, Cannes Film Festival, and the Venice Film Festival. With successful parents like hers and her unique beauty, we have a feeling we will be seeing her a lot on the big screen in the next years.
MAYA HAWKE & UMA THURMAN
If the name wasn’t a giveaway enough, Maya Thurman-Hawke is the child of the talented pair, Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. It seems she was destined for fame since Maya began taking the ramp by storm at an early age itself. She made her screen debut with the BBC mini-series Little Women and is soon expected to be seen on the third season of Netflix’s Stranger Things.
Source: HealthyGeorge
While we’re glad the young woman chose to continue her college education despite battling dyslexia, it would be great if she hadn’t been forced to drop out due to acting commitments. Either way, with such talented parents, we’re sure Maya will carve her own path in the industry without having to depend on her parent’s investments.
RUMER WILLIS & BRUCE WILLIS
Here she is again, Rumer Willis, hard not to be mentioned when your parents are two of Hollywood’s biggest stars. Rumer has inherited her features from both Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, though we are unsure whether she’s more like her Mom or Dad.
Source: HealthyGeorge
The star daughter decided to pursue acting after being done with colleges and further education, and though she’s had small parts in movies since the ’90s, her claim to fame came from the movie House Bunny. These days, Rumer Willis is busy with her show Empire; we hope she makes it big and obviously makes a great name for herself.
SOPHIE VON HASELBERG & BETTE MIDLER
Bette Midler has been one of the finest performers of her time, and even at 72, the actress remains as elegant and poised as always. Recently, the actress attended the Tony Awards with her daughter; trust us, we were amazed to find the resemblance between Better and her actress daughter Sophie Von Haselberg.
Source: HealthyGeorge
It seems though this resemblance remained unnoticed for a long time, possibly because Sophie was pursuing East Asian Studies at Yale and after working in China for a while, Von Haselberg went back to college to study drama in 2011. Sophie made her debut on stage in 2014 with the play “Billy and Ray”, and is since then has been working her way the Hollywood ladder.
ZELDA WILLIAMS & ROBIN WILLIAMS
Unique is a trait that beloved actor Robin Williams was known for. Maybe that’s why he named his daughter Zelda after a video game character? Zelda, who made her movie debut at age five, is an established actress herself, no doubt sporting the gene from her genius father.
Source: HealthyGeorge
His untimely death in 2014 seemed to have left quite the void in her life, though she’s probably financially secure thanks to Robin’s insurance policies. Zelda is an avid athlete as well and took part in art and sport-related college programs as well. She has been appearing in several TV and movie roles currently.
LILY COLLINS & PHIL COLLINS
British musician Phil Collins might have had to see a divorce attorney when his marriage went south, but his daughter Lily has finally opened up about forgiving him. The actress had written an open letter in which she details how she missed her father, and despite several problems between them, had finally forgiven him.
Source: HealthyGeorge
We suppose she realized that being a celebrity can have its negatives as well, something Phil Collins knows too well. Either way, we’re hoping Lily goes a long way with her talent, seeing as how she’s made such a name for herself already. And of course, she’s probably made quite a lot of financial investments too, we sure would!
CHARLIE SHEEN & MARTIN SHEEN
The Sheen’s need no introduction; Martin Sheen has worked closely with Hollywood and the theatres for many decades, having started as a young boy. He didn’t even finish his college education, so keen was he to take up acting. Well, that proved to be a good decision, and today his son Charlie is himself extremely famous as well.
Source: HealthyGeorge
And though his controversial personal life makes more news than his work, we still adore Charlie Sheen who is not just a duplicate of his father, but also a brilliant actor. Charlie’s charming smile and portrayal of roles have earned him fat paychecks and he surely has no shortage of bank accounts to hold his fortune. We hope that he keeps doing good work in future and avoids getting involved in more controversy again.
OZ PERKINS & ANTHONY PERKINS
While his exceptional performances in Friendly Persuasion and Psycho were the ones to bring him fame, Anthony Perkins actually had a career spanning nearly forty years. Even after he died in 1992, the actor’s performances remained etched in our minds.
Source: HealthyGeorge
But even though Perkins might have needed a financial planning advisor to manage his many investments, his son Oz seems to still be struggling in the acting scene. Rest assured there’s no dearth of talent and Oz did make several appearances in several films (his earliest being the twelve-year-old version of his Dad in Psycho II), and has moved on to writing and directing horror movie scripts. We sure hope for the best for his future projects!
MAXWELL DREW JOHNSON & JESSICA SIMPSON
Singer, actress, and fashion designer Jessica Simpson is a versatile person. She started her career as a teenager, and there was no looking back after that. Maxwell is her first child and was born in 2012.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Jessica frequently posts pretty pictures of her daughter on social media. Though only six years old, Maxwell is definitely going to be a style diva when she grows up. Let’s hope whatever she does, she has enough in her banks to keep her going!
AVA SAMBORA & HEATHER LOCKLEAR
Heather Locklear, who was an absolute stunner back when she was only 20 years old, still looks incredibly attractive with her striking eyes and her changing hairstyle. Ava Sambora, her 20-year-old daughter, has luckily inherited her striking beauty.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Ava is a wannabe model who is still pursuing her higher studies at Loyola Marymount University. Her mother might have invested in her health insurance and education, but Ava, who has already appeared in This Is 40 (2012), and two other TV shows, will surely take it from here.
MIGUEL LEON TYSON & MIKE TYSON
Once a professional heavyweight boxing champion, Mike Tyson is, perhaps, one of the most recognized names in the world. Despite a great career, Mike had a chequered history. Both his professional and personal life was marred by several controversies.
Source: HealthyGeorge
In fact, he was convicted for physically abusing an 18-year-old woman despite his lawyer’s best effort. Though he had a great comeback after he came out of prison, he faced bankruptcy. At present, he has been seen training with his son Miguel Leon Tyson. Miguel is only 15 but already knows how to deliver a strong punch just like his father. We can’t wait for Miguel to grow up and follow in his father’s wake.
JASON RITTER & JOHN RITTER
Talk about peas-in-a-pod, the uncanny resemblance between John Ritter and his son Jason deserves to be mentioned. John Ritter sure stole our hearts with his numerous roles and performances, especially the sitcoms “8 Simple Rules” and “Three’s Company”.
Source: HealthyGeorge
He’s also acted in many movies, and Jason seems to have been fortunate enough to have received much of this talent. One doesn’t need insurance when they inherit such talent, do they? Jason Ritter can be noted for his performances in “The Event”, and “Joan of Arcadia”, and we’re hoping he gets to exercise his talent even more in the coming days.
CHRISTIAN GUDEGAST & ERIC BRAEDEN
Christian Gudegast is a writer and filmmaker and the only son of German-born Eric Braeden and Dale Russell. Christian graduated top of his class from the UCLA Film School in 1992 and won the Best Student Film award the same year for Shadow Box, his thesis film. Not only did Christian share the same good looks with his father, but he also seemed destined to be as popular.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Christian has the same pronounced jawline as his father and a smile so similar. It would be hard to tell the two apart if one did not see their eyes. Apart from sharing his father’s ruggedness, Christian also uses his father’s original German surname. Christian may not have the same net worth as his more popular father, but he sure reminds us of a young Eric Braeden.
BUBBA STRAIT & GEORGE STRAIT
Born George Harvey Strait Junior, Bubba is the second child of country music legend George Strait and his wife, Norma Strait. George married his high school sweetheart Norma in 1971 and ten years after that, their only son was born. Bubba shares his iconic father’s passion for country music and rodeo. While still in college, Bubba began his competitive rodeo career and became a professional roper after graduation.
Source: HealthyGeorge
George junior takes after his father in more ways than one. The father and son have the same innocent sparkling eyes that always seem to shine with a hint of a smile. Lately, Bubba Strait co-wrote three songs on George Strait’s 38th album, Twang. Bubba also wrote the song Arkansas Dave for the same album. Like father like son, they say.
JORDAN MCGRAW & DR. PHIL
Musician Jordan McGraw is the son of television personality, Phil McGraw, and his wife, Robin Jo Jameson. Famous worldwide as Dr Phil, Phil McGraw has two kids Jay and Jordan. Jordan started playing the guitar at the young age of fifteen years. The thirty-three-year-old is also the lead singer of American band Hundred Handed whose debut single Love Me Like The Weekend released in 2015.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Jordan recently in a People magazine interview spoke about how his father Dr Phil’s influence has been strong on him. It seems that Jordan not only shares his father’s dreamy blue eyes but also shares his father’s taste in music that, according to him, shaped his music taste. Jordan revealed that there was always music playing in his house, and he grew up to great music that shaped him as a musician.
HUNTER FIERI & GUY FIERI
American restaurateur Guy Fieri opened up his first restaurant California Pasta Grill in the same year his Hunter was born. 23-year-old Hunter Fieri is now interested in a career in food just like his Emmy Award-winning foodie father. He graduated this year from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where Guy himself once studied.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Hunter is just a slimmer and younger version of Guy with the same piercing black eyes, a laid-back smile, and that energetic laugh that Guy Fieri is loved for. Hunter has been appearing on his father’s show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives quite often and is set to follow Guy’s passion for food. With a few extra pounds on him, Hunter can become the spitting image of Guy Fieri.
MILO GIBSON & MEL GIBSON
Even with his controversial life, super-talented actor Mel Gibson gained fame with his performances in movies such a Brave Heart, Mad Max, and of course, the Lethal Weapon series. Mel, whose stunts and action-sequences probably made it easy to buy life insurance coverage, is the father of Milo, his child from his ex-wife Robyn Moore.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Milo is lucky to have inherited his father’s good looks, and having chosen acting as his career, we’re hoping his hard work pays off and he can match his father’s talent, just as much as his features. Our only request is that he keeps away from making controversial statements that might eventually affect his career.
GRACE GUMMER & MERYL STREEP
Meryl Streep has often been called one of the finest actresses of her generation. Three-time Academy Award winner Meryl Streep is best known for her roles in The Bridges Of Madison County, Sophie’s Choice, The French Lieutenant’s Woman, Julie & Julia etc. Married to Don Gummer, Meryl is the proud mother of three beautiful daughters.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Her daughters resemble their mother a lot and have taken to acting like her. Grace is their second born and she is into acting as well. She went to the same college as her mother – Vassar College and debuted as a stage actress. Even later in her career, she acted in the theatre as well. We are sure she is banking on her good genes to get a foothold in the industry.
BLUE IVY & BEYONCE
With a mother like Beyonce and a father like Jay Z, little Blue Ivy is already earning fame, even if her bank accounts aren’t filled with her earnings yet. Of course, the little tyke already takes after her parents, though she resembled her mother most when she was younger and these days she’s also revealing features like those of her dad’s.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Blue Ivy’s fame is such that Beyonce actually wanted to trademark her name; turns out that didn’t work out. Though we’re hoping Blue Ivy walks in her parent’s footsteps, more so because the little girl apparently loves to sing, and has even given her voice in one of Beyonce’s singles.
OZ PERKINS & ANTHONY PERKINS
While his exceptional performances in Friendly Persuasion and Psycho were the ones to bring him fame, Anthony Perkins actually had a career spanning nearly forty years. Even after he died in 1992, the actor’s performances remained etched in our minds.
Source: HealthyGeorge
But even though Perkins might have needed a financial planning advisor to manage his many investments, his son Oz seems to still be struggling in the acting scene. Rest assured there’s no dearth of talent and Oz did make several appearances in several films (his earliest being the twelve-year-old version of his Dad in Psycho II), and has moved on to writing and directing horror movie scripts. We sure hope for the best for his future projects!
ZIGGY MARLEY & BOB MARLEY
David Nesta Marley, aka Ziggy Marley, is Bob Marley’s son and there could be no doubt about that fact thanks to the striking similarity between both. Ziggy’s facial features and similar hairstyle, as well as his decision to make music, would have made his father proud, had he not passed away so soon.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Ziggy has his own reggae music band, and sometimes we wonder what would have happened had he taken up a career in computers or banking, rather than singing? Well, we can’t say we aren’t pleased; Ziggy Marley may not be his father, but his talent sure matches his dad’s, as do his looks!
EMMA ROBERTS & ERIC ROBERTS
Emma started pretty young with the Nickelodeon series Unfabulous, and it seemed pretty apparent that the young girl was a talented artist. No surprise there; Emma descends from a long line of actors; her father Eric and his sister Julia Roberts both need no introduction.
Source: HealthyGeorge
Emma, who resembles her father closely, has already accomplished quite a name for herself in the short amount of time that she’s been acting. No question of bankruptcy there thankfully, for the talented actress has amassed pretty much fat bank accounts, and here’s hoping she continues to do so over the year.
SAILOR BRINKLEY COOK & CHRISTIE BRINKLEY
Both the Brinkley ladies seem to have been born with dazzling good looks. Clearly, one can see that Sailor, daughter of yesteryear’s famous model Christie Brinkley has inherited her mother’s beauty and charm. While Christie made quite the name back in the day, Sailor seems to have followed her mother’s footsteps.
Source: HealthyGeorge
That seems to be a good investment for the fitness and swimsuit model who’s obviously filling her bank account up quickly. She’s quite active on social media as well, and considering how keen she’s on fitness, Sailor Brinkley Cook is bound to make a dent in the modelling world soon.
SCOTT EASTWOOD & CLINT EASTWOOD
Eastwood’s son Scott might not yet have accomplished the paramount fame his father did, but he sure has hit the jackpot in the looks department. We were pretty much gut-punched when we checked out his pics! Scott has acted in some movies, but we don’t think he’s made good investments there
Source: HealthyGeorge
Perhaps he should try some better screenplays because Scott Eastwood is quite a talented (not to mention smoking hot) young man and we’re certain he has inherited his father’s massive talent as well. Perhaps Scott could also give the direction a try; he could be really good at it, one never knows!
