Nepo Babies More Famous Than Their Parents

Tom Holland and Dominic Holland

When Tom’s father released Eclipsed: Turns out that Spider-Man does have a dad after all in 2019, some people thought he was bitter over his son’s huge success since joining the Marvel Universe. But Dominic is actually a noted comedian in the U.K., and the book — which is one of nine he’s penned — is “written with great affection and warmth by a dad as proud as he is bemused.” Tome even wrote the foreword.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Blythe Danner

Oscar-winning Gwyneth is definitely more well-known than her actress mother, but it was watching Blythe perform that inspired her to take up the craft in the first place. “When she was on stage, she was the most powerful, integrated force of nature that I have ever seen,” the Avengers star recalled. “And so I wanted to be that.” FWIW: Blythe, who’s won an Emmy and a Tony, isn’t doing half bad herself!

Bella, Yolanda and Gigi Hadid

Thanks to their former Ford model mom, Bella and Gigi would pop up in scenes on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills from time to time as teens. Now they’re commanding the spotlight as two of the most in-demand — and highest-paid — models in the world! “I am happy to be in their shadow, supporting their journey,” Yolanda has said of Gig and Bella. “They are so much bigger, better and smarter than I ever was.”

Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus

He’s had eight Top 10 country singles, and his tune “Achy Breaky Heart” is credited with popularizing line dancing. Yet for many, Billy Ray is best known as Hannah Montana’s dad from his daughter’s Disney show. That might be fair: Miley has been one of the bestselling pop artists in the world for two decades. And her latest album, the Grammy-nominated Endless Summer Vacation, shows that the actor and activist — who’s worth a whopping $160 million — isn’t slowing down anytime soon!

Hailey Bieber & Stephen Baldwin

After being overshadowed by famous older brothers Alec and Billy, actor Stephen has now also been eclipsed by daughter Hailey! Her campaigns with some of fashion’s biggest houses, $51 million Instagram followers, and marriage to Justin Bieber have made Hailey one of the biggest names in Hollywood, while dad is now mainly recognized for his ultraconservative rants. Despite disagreeing with him politically, Hailey has shared, “I love my father. He’s an amazing dad.”
