Although she may be a major Hollywood celebrity, Mila Kunis has a strong attachment to her family and the concept of home. According to her, home is a sanctuary that provides security and relaxation where one can be playful without fear of criticism. Kunis has remained true to these principles wherever she has resided, regardless of her living situation. It’s noteworthy to mention that her parents still reside in the same apartment they moved into when they relocated to Los Angeles from Ukraine twenty years ago. Recently, Kunis decided to add a bit of excitement to their lives.
They Couldn’t Believe What She Did
According to Mila Kunis, prioritizing family is of utmost importance. She expressed her amazement that her parents still reside in the same condo where she spent her childhood and mentioned that it’s impossible to persuade them to move out.
Kunis believed that the condo required a drastic renovation, even though she knew her parents would not leave. As a result, she secretly made plans and asked her parents to vacate the condo for a few weeks without disclosing her ultimate plan.
She’d Do Anything For Her Family
If Mila Kunis did not possess a strong attachment to her family, this story would not exist. Mila emigrated from Ukraine to the United States at a young age and has always placed great importance on having her loved ones nearby.
To this day, despite her extensive work-related travels, she ensures that she resides near her parents. With the passage of time, however, she has come to believe that she can provide assistance to them.
Started From The Bottom…
It is a harsh reality that Mila Kunis and her family did not belong to the most affluent class. However, presently her parents, Mark and Elvira, hold respectable professions as a mechanical engineer and a physics teacher, respectively.
Although the Kunis family was never impoverished, they faced difficulties while living in Ukraine. Mila’s parents became aware that her and her brother’s prospects were limited in their home country and that their situation needed to change. Eventually, the family’s circumstances would undergo a significant transformation.
…Now She’s Here
Mila Kunis had to wait for a few years until she finally got her lucky break in the acting industry. She scored a major role in the well-known TV series That 70s Show, which opened new doors for her. Since then, she has been able to pursue more significant and successful projects.
Converting! Wait…
A Difficult Journey
The transition of the Kunis family from Ukraine to the USA was a challenging experience. In 1991, with only $250 to their name, the family of seven relocated to America. Despite Mila’s parents possessing “good degrees” and “good jobs,” their expertise could not be applied to their new life in America.
Consequently, Mila’s dad undertook various random tasks like delivering pizzas, installing toilets, and painting houses, whereas Mila’s mom was employed in the stockroom of a pharmacy.
Her Start in Hollywood
Mila commenced her acting journey at the tender age of nine after her father registered her in an acting course. Mila mentioned that her proficiency in English was not great, she didn’t have many friends, and her parents couldn’t hire a caretaker for her.
Kunis’ father believed that taking acting lessons would address all three concerns simultaneously. His assumption was accurate, and furthermore, acting propelled Mila to success and wealth.
That 70’s Show
Mila acknowledged that she had falsified her age in order to secure her breakthrough role on That 70’s Show. Since the show featured adult themes, the producers were seeking to cast more mature teenagers, prompting a 14-year-old Mila to misrepresent herself as an 18-year-old.
The performer has stated that there is a circulating speculation that she may have been dishonest about her age, and wish to clarify that she indeed did tell a lie. However, it appears that her untruth has ultimately benefited her.
Home Is Where Her Parents Live
Mila Kunis has had a clear understanding of her definition of home since her younger years. At the age of nine, she relocated with her family from Ukraine to Los Angeles and settled in a condominium. Today, more than twenty years later, her parents remain living in the same location.
According to her, she completed her high school education and obtained her first pet in the same condominium. Yet, surprisingly, she still feels that her parents ought to receive greater appreciation.
Mila’s Home
It is noteworthy that despite Mila’s ability to purchase lavish housing options, her parents still choose to reside in their modest condo. Mila and Ashton Kutcher possess three properties jointly and possess a total net worth of approximately $275 million.
Although the renowned pair has ample wealth and room to accommodate Mila’s parents, Elvira and Mark Kunis opt to reside in the condominium they have always referred to as their home.
They Deserve A Change
Mila Kunis wishes to renovate her parents’ condo mainly because she believes they are worthy of it. She holds them in high regard and has referred to her mother, Elvira, as the best mom in the world.
She expressed her desire to carry out the renovation project for her parents as they have done numerous things for both her and her brother. She strongly feels that they deserve something in return. Nonetheless, the condo also has its own set of issues to be addressed.
Tiny Kitchen
Mila thinks that the kitchen is a significant factor in why the condo is not functional. She argues that because the kitchen is isolated, her mother becomes disconnected from the rest of the family.
According to her, the individuals who are present in the kitchen are often cut off from the rest of the group due to the unusual walls surrounding them, resulting in continuous shouting to communicate with others. Nevertheless, Mila’s decision to bring some significant modifications to the condominium arose from more than just this issue.
Dated Furniture
Mila holds a dislike for the appearance of the condo as well, considering it to be significantly outdated and in need of drastic modifications, particularly regarding the furniture. She explained that the furniture seems unevenly proportioned and the overall look of the residence is reminiscent of Miami Vice from 1994.
There are numerous leather couches in the room with walls painted in green and pink colors. Although it may seem odd, my parents believe that the colors complement each other. She was guided towards the Houzz website and found a way to attain her goals.
Finding A Designer
Mila Kunis, who was working full-time even at nine months pregnant, found great assistance in Houzz website. According to her, Houzz is a website and application that provides inspiration, allowing her to accomplish more.
Mila went online to look for designers based in L.A., and came across Breeze Giannasio’s website. Impressed by the positive feedback and unique design approach, Mila contacted her. They had a great conversation over the phone and even arranged a time to meet up.
She Hit The Jackpot
Undoubtedly, Mila found a valuable gem in Breeze Giannasio who turned her career towards her design passions after being a lawyer, as stated on her website.
The foundation of every design should be based on comfort, livability, and functionality. Once these basic requirements are met, designers can focus on exceeding their clients’ expectations of what it means to live a good life. Mila felt reassured by her initial interaction with the designer and their first meeting quickly began.
Planning Everything Together
Their collaboration seemed to be perfect. When Designer Breeze arrived at Mila’s house, they began discussing the renovation plans. Breeze quickly agreed with the issues Mila had described.
Serious renovation on the kitchen, dining area, and lounge was required, and it was jointly decided that maximizing the open space was the ideal solution. Breeze suggested that Mila logs in to her Houzz account and checks her Ideabook.
Fixing The Kitchen
Houzz offers a feature called Ideabook which enables users to create and exchange ideas with others involved in the project. While going through Mila’s Ideabook, Breeze expressed admiration for some of the ideas she came across.
She observed a suitable kitchen theme that could be utilized in the condo’s area. They both came to a consensus that a pantry would be most advantageous for Mila’s mother, Elvira regarding storage. This would facilitate her to keep a greater amount of spices and dried food. Additionally, the dining room and lounge needed to be addressed.
Problem Solving
Mila elaborated on the significance of having a big table and good lighting due to their family’s frequent big dinners. Breeze then suggested a suitable table and a modern chandelier to replace the outdated ones Mila’s parents had held onto for an extended period.
According to Breeze, the new couch they selected is both lengthy and has an artistic quality, as well as being versatile. Mila is optimistic that her father will greatly appreciate the couch for taking frequent naps.
Don’t Mess This Up
Breeze was quite forthright with expressing her thoughts. She believed that the floorboards were outdated and required replacement, and also put forward a minor modification to their initial idea.
“She suggested that retaining some of the entry walls could help maintain the sense of enclosure and entry,” stated Mila, who had initial doubts about the idea but ultimately had faith in Breeze’s decision-making abilities. Mila jokingly stated, “I trust you. Just don’t make any mistakes or I’ll know where to find you!”
Keeping What’s Good
Mila was reluctant to dispose of certain items in her parents’ condo, including the triptych paintings that adorned one of the walls, which she particularly wanted to preserve.
It appears that her parents brought along something very precious from Ukraine that her father treasures a lot. These items symbolize the family’s history, current situation, and future aspirations, which are extremely important to them in the present moment. Despite this, they have agreed to alter their perspective on these items.
She Knocked Down The Wall
After deciding on other alterations, including removing the leather sofas and fixing the TV on the wall, the duo were prepared to start the renovation. Their initial move was to demolish the kitchen wall.
After grabbing a hammer, Mila acknowledged that she had been anticipating this moment for a significant duration before forcefully hitting the wall with it. Despite being nine months pregnant, she asserted that she was the one to demolish the wall.
They Tore It Down
No need to fret, Mila only attempted one forceful hit before passing the hammer over to the experts. During the following few weeks, the building crew removed the wall, sink, stove, counters, and flooring from the kitchen.
The couple’s objective was to renovate the condo into a contemporary and more hygienic living space, incorporating various shades of white. Interestingly, Mila had other endeavors occupying her attention during this period.
Special Delivery!
“Mila was occupied with the arrival of her second child, Dmitri, while the renovation was taking place. She mentioned that she was unable to communicate with Breeze for several weeks, explaining that it was due to the birth of her baby.”
Fortunately, during her free time, Mila had a Skype conversation with Breeze who provided assurance that everything was going according to plan. Breeze even shared a picture of the chandelier’s appearance before setting it up. After some time, Mila was eager to witness the final outcome.
Bigger Kitchen
Although not all of the furniture was in position, Mila was extremely amazed by the changes that had taken place in her parents’ condo during the past few weeks. She first observed the kitchen, which seemed significantly larger than before.
Breeze fulfilled her promise of providing her mother with lovely glass cabinets and exposed shelving, as well as a convenient pull-out pantry for keeping spices and dry goods. However, this was just the beginning of the many improvements that were in store.
New Lounge
Mila was pleased with the lounge renovation work that had been completed by the renovators, which she knew her father would also appreciate. The wall-mounted TV and new furniture were set up, all ready for her dad to take a much-needed rest.
Mila firmly held the belief that the changes, although obviously distinct, were advantageous. In the midst of this, someone she recognized appeared, willing to assist with the rearrangement of furniture.
Ashton Did The Heavy Lifting
You may be curious about Ashton Kutcher’s whereabouts during a particular period. Nevertheless, rest assured that Mila’s spouse was prompt in providing assistance by lifting heavy objects at an essential time. He aided Mila and Breeze by rearranging furniture, rehanging paintings, and completing other last-minute tasks.
“Wow! Ashton exclaimed as he noticed how much brighter and more spacious the area had become.” As the couple admired the final outcome, they nearly overlooked the fact that Mila’s parents were soon to arrive.
They Had No Idea
After spending six weeks away from their home, Mark and Elvira, Mila’s parents, were finally given permission to return. Nevertheless, they were clueless about the reason why they were evicted initially.
According to Elvira, they have been residing at the same place for more than 2 decades and have been away from home for six weeks. Mark added that it’s difficult to relocate when you reach a certain age. Nevertheless, their extended wait has finally come to an end.
They Were Lost For Words
Mark and Elvira were astonished by what they saw upon entering, and were unsure of their opinion at first. But when Mila inquired if her mother enjoyed it, she enthusiastically confirmed with a ‘yes.’
Afterwards, Elvira burst into tears. Witnessing my parents’ response to their condo for the first time made all the effort and pressure worthwhile, as she stated. All the difficulties and any other issues faded away into insignificance as soon as my mother began to cry.
It’s The Same Kitchen?
While inspecting the newly refurbished condo, Elvira was taken aback by the absence of a partition between the kitchen and the lounge. In actuality, the kitchen had been considerably expanded! She was thrilled to observe the spice racks, glass cabinets, and open shelving.
She exclaimed her fondness towards the dining table, expressing her amazement about its expandable feature. The couple also expressed their admiration towards the new table, noting its extensions for accommodating additional individuals, such as grandchildren.
Honoring The Past
Mark and Elvira were very pleased to notice that Mila had retained certain details that held significant value to them, with the outstanding chandelier hanging above the dining table now complementing the new framing of the triptych paintings being the perfect illustration of it.
Mark expressed his admiration, saying “It’s lovely.” As they walked towards the lounge, Mark was introduced to the highlight of the area, which brought him tremendous joy.
Perfect Couch For Napping
Sitting on their new couch for the first time, Mark and Elvira were happy to have plenty of space unlike the small leather couches they were used to. The fact that the new couch was bigger meant they could sit together comfortably.
Mark commented that the couch was ideal, and Elvira playfully replied, “My kitchen, his couch!” As they watched their new wall-mounted television for the first time, there was a knock at the door. The identity of the visitor was a mystery to them all.
Thank You So Much
Mila was filled with anticipation as she opened the door to introduce her parents to the person who had made a significant impact on their lives – Breeze, the designer. Mark and Elvira’s faces lit up with excitement upon seeing her, and they eagerly greeted her to express their gratitude for all she had done for them.
They both hugged her warmly before Ashton opened a bottle and made a proposal for a toast. Mila left feeling confident that she had made a profound impact on her parents’ lives.
A Happy Childhood
Despite her family’s financial struggles, Mila still had a happy childhood – thanks to her parents’ hard work. Mila lovingly recalls, “Growing up poor, I never missed out on anything. My parents did a beautiful job of not making me feel like I was lesser than any other kids.”
Sadly, Mila didn’t always have hot water at home, which just goes to show how far she’s come. The actress has expressed hope that her own children will also become “self-made” just as she and her husband are.
Mila the Mom
Nowadays, Mila is a mother herself. Despite the actress’s wealth, she doesn’t want her children to be spoiled. Instead, she prefers to raise them with the same values her parents instilled in her.
She says that she wants her children to know “a dollar’s worth” and that when it comes to her and Ashton’s success, “nothing’s been handed to us.” “It’s a matter of teaching them from a very early age that, you know, ‘Mommy and Daddy may have a dollar, but you’re poor.’”
Do They Still Love It?
Fast forward a year or so later, and it seems like Mark and Elvira Kunis are still very much in love with their renovated home.
They are so grateful that their daughter had reached a stage in her life that she was able to provide them with such an incredible surprise. Now they have a large, open space where they can always see each other, communicate better and generally have a place that they can say they are proud to live in.
We’ve watched them rock out on stage, give us award-winning performances, and written best-selling books. However, away from the public eye and the fame and fortune, many of these celebrities have been welcoming their next family’s generation. That’s right, many of the stars we have been interested in for years are actually grandparents. Here is a list of celebrities who are grandparents, and you are certainly going to be shocked by most of the list. After all, many of these celebrities are still having kids of their own, so it is crazy to think that they have children at the same time as their kids.
Pierce Brosnan
Brosnan first became a grandfather when his daughter, Charlotte, gave birth in 1998. Not everyone can say their grandfather was James Bond.
However, Pierce Brosnan’s three grandchildren certainly can. It’s amazing to think that the star of Goldeneye, Tomorrow Never Dies and The World Is Not Enough is now a grandpa.
Charlie Sheen
While having a celebrity grandparent may not be the most convenient to begin with, having Charlie Sheen as your grandfather certainly differs from the rest. Sheen became a grandfather in 2013 when his eldest daughter Cassandra Estevez welcomed her first child.
Charlie gave the announcement of the birth on Twitter when he wrote, “Hey Luna, welcome to my planet!” Sheen has another four children from two different marriages, and his twin sons, who are Luna’s uncles, were born just four years before in 2009.
Donny Osmond
Donny Osmond may be famous for his good looks and singing talents, but it is well-known that he comes from a big family. Away from performing with his seven siblings, Donny married and became a father to five sons.
It is no surprise then that the Osmond family are continuing to grow, and Donny is already a grandfather of ten – nine boys and one girl! He first became a grandpa in 2005, and we can only imagine the sweet-sounding lullabies he has graced all his grandchildren with.
Ozzy Osbourne
The Osbourne’s popularity grew after the release of their own reality show, which showed a lot of cursing and content of an adult nature.
We now hope that is a thing of the past since the Prince of Darkness and his ever so vibrant wife, Sharon, are now grandparents to Pearl and Andy from their son Jack Osbourne. Ozzy is already a grandpa to four children from a previous marriage, so we can imagine things get a little crazy when the grandkids come to stay.
Whoopi Goldberg
Whoopi Goldberg is an award-winning actress, known for featuring in many films and being a true Hollywood treasure. However, Goldberg is a grandmother and has been for over twenty years. Having had her daughter, Alexandrea when she was 18-years-old, Alexandrea had her own daughter when she was just 16.
That means that Whoopi has been a grandmother since she was 34-years-old. Now a grandmother of three, one of Alexandrea’s daughters had a child of her own, making Whoopi a great-grandmother.
Martha Stewart
Martha Stewart has done it all; she has written several cooking books, hosted her very own television show, and even served a prison sentence.
However, what has brought her the most joy in life is her family, and her daughter Alexis made her a grandmother for the first time in 2011, with her second grandchild born exactly a year later. Jude and Truman are the young tots that Martha loves to spend time with, and they would often visit her on the set of her cooking programs.
Cee Lo Green
If you’re starting to think Cee Lo Green may be a lot older than you originally thought, then no need. Green is, in fact, 43, and the Gnarls Barkley star became a grandfather when he was just 35. For many, this is the time just to start having kids of your own, let alone grandchildren.
However, Green’s stepdaughter gave birth to a little boy when she was 20-years-old, making Cee Lo a young grandfather. It will probably be a while till the young boy hears his grandfathers hit single.
Kiefer Sutherland
While playing Jack Bauer on 24, Kiefer was not just learning to fight terrorists. He was taking on his favorite role at the same time when his stepdaughter Michelle welcomed a son in 2005, making Kiefer a grandpa.
Speaking of his grandson, the actor said, “His name is Hamish Adam Kiefer Sinclair, he’s four-and-a-half and he’s a train wreck. He already looks like a failed boxer. He falls down a lot and he gets cut up and he’s just beautiful.”
Jim Carrey
Jim Carrey has embarked on many roles during his acting career, and there proves never to be a dull moment in the comedian’s life. In 2010, he took on the biggest role of all, however, when his daughter welcomed a baby boy and made Carrey a grandfather.
Speaking to Access Reporter following the young tot’s birth, he said, “I love being granddaddy, granddaddy Jim,” he continued. “I just get a lot of joy, a lot of joy from that little boy.”
Tina Turner
It must be cool to say your grandmother once performed with Beyonce, but then again it must be pretty cool to say your grandma is actually Tina Turner who Beyonce performed with. Even at 78-years-old, Turner is envied for her toned legs and can still rock a stage when she is set to perform.
Not many grandmothers can say they can do the same as Turner, but the legendary singer has two grandchildren from her son, and they certainly have a superstar grandmother.
Tom Hanks
He is one of the biggest actors in Hollywood and continues to rock the big screen; however, Tom Hanks himself would even admit that after welcoming his first grandchild in 2011, he can see that spending time with his granddaughter is “better than television.”
Speaking to David Letterman following the birth of his granddaughter, the actor said, “It’s magnificent! There’s nothing I’d rather be doing than having that little kid on my knee or in my arms.” That kid is going to be one proud grandchild!
June Shannon
Having made a name for herself from the trashy, yet heavily popular, TV show, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, June Shannon is featured alongside her young daughter on the reality hit. However, June has another daughter, Anna Shannon who gave birth to a baby girl in 2013 named Kaitlyn.
Both girls were featured on the reality show, and June would call the baby “Gigi’s baby” for some reason. Anna has since gone onto have another daughter named Kylee, making June a grandma for the second time.
Tony Danza
Tony Danza won the hearts of many when he starred as Tony Banta in the show Taxi from the late 70’s. However, becoming a grandfather in 2005 is what stole Danza’s heart.
The father of four became a grandpa while in his mid-50’s, and he admitted that he felt very special when he got this new role. Speaking about the newfound role, Danza expressed, “I want to be the guy who takes my grandson fishing and the guy he wants to go fishing with.”
Nicolas Cage
Nicolas Cage became a grandpa when his 25-year-old son, Weston Cage welcomed a son with his wife, Danielle Cage. The couple welcomed a “happy, healthy little boy” in 2014 who they named Lucian Augustus Coppola Cage.
The name Lucian means “light” in Latin, and we’re sure the new bundle of joy was a shining light in the Cage family. Weston and Danielle then welcomed their second son in 2016, named Sorin, making the Leaving Las Vegas star a proud grandfather of two.
Sir Mick Jagger
Sir Mick Jagger has been a grandfather since 1992, and the same year he welcomed his fourth grandchild, he also welcomed his first great-grandchild. In 2014, the babies were born within four weeks of each other, and it was a bittersweet year since it also marked the death of Jagger’s lover, L’Wren Scott.
With many people being a fan of Sir Mick, we’re sure his grandkids will have no problem looking up to their legendary and rockstar grandpa.
Brett Favre
During the same time Brett Favre was playing in the NFL for the Vikings, his daughter had given birth to a son in 2010. At the time, the NFL pointed out that there were no other current players who could say they held the same grandparent status.
Just like Brett was used to doing, the former NFL player meets philanthropist set the record once again by taking on this new role. Now aged 48, Brett is the proud grandfather of three grandsons, and he hopes they chose a ‘safer’ sport than football.
Michael Bolton
When Michael Bolton spoke to People about becoming a grandfather in 2010, he mentioned how he was excited but also slightly nervous about welcoming the new addition.
Speaking of adopting his new found title of grandpa, he admitted, “It’s so weird, I’m going to figure out how to own that.”Michael has had no problem when it comes to performing out on stage, that we’re sure he took on the role of a rockstar grandpa and had a new number one fan.
Ron Howard
Ron Howards’s daughter followed in her father’s footsteps by having a career in the entertainment world. While they have both secured successful roles on-screen, she gave her father a new role to play off-screen when she gave birth to her first child in 2007.
The American actor became a grandfather to Bryce Howard’s son, Theodore and, undoubtedly, the Academy Award-winning director excelled at this role. He was blessed with another grandchild in 2012, a girl named Beatrice.
NeNe Leakes
She is the center of drama on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and Nene Leakes likes to get her voice across. She perhaps would have had to watch her voice levels, however, when her son had a baby girl in 2012 named Bri’Asia.
Any trip to grandma’s house is sure going to be interesting since NeNe is known to enjoy pole dancing or a dinner party with her equally dramatic group of friends. Let’s just hope the number of cuss words has been reduced at least.
Snoop Dogg
Trying to imagine Snoop Dogg as a grandfather may be a hard thing to do. However, it’s time to believe it because the rapper is, in fact, a proud grandfather to his grandson, Zion. At 20-years-old, Snoop’s eldest son Corde Broadus welcomed a baby boy into this world.
Just as Snoop Dogg is not afraid to hide what goes on in his life, he was sure not shy when it came to introducing the world to little, baby Zion.
Tweet
Before the use of the word “tweet” came along from Twitter, there was Tweet, the singer. For those who remember Tweet, she was part of Timbaland and Missy Elliot’s clan and is now a grandmother.
Speaking of her grandson, she expressed, “It’s the best thing in the world. I never knew love like that. I said that before but I never knew what it meant. I can feel what it means now. I can have a terrible day, and that little boy will walk in the room. Everything is lifted.”
Damon Wayans
The My Wife and Kids actor is officially a grandfather after his son Mike Wayans welcomed a baby girl named Ava Marie in 2014. Mike shares his daughter with Vanessa Simmons who is Rev Run’s eldest daughter. Therefore, the Run D.M.C. rapper, along with Damon Wayans, is also a grandfather.
This is the first grandchild for both famous men, and that child has certainly been born into a huge family from both sides. Ava Marie has also been blessed by not one, but two, super cool grandfathers.
Cedric the Entertainer
He is best known to the public as Cedric the Entertainer, but for one little girl, he is known as “GrandCeddy.” Cedric became a grandfather when his first granddaughter Kylo Faith was born in 2016. While he is “GrandCeddy” to her, she is “Doll” for him, probably because of how tiny she was when she was born.
The Barbershop star is certainly someone who is going to spoil his young granddaughter and provide her with a huge amount of entertainment; we are sure this is one great grandpa to have.
David and Tamela Mann
The gospel singing couple has been married for 30 years and welcomed four children together. While they have achieved great success in the entertainment world, they have remained devout Christians and shown how important family is to them.
Along with their four children, they also raised Tamela’s niece and, in 2015, they signed for a reality show which was all about their family titled, It’s A Mann’s World. Now, David and Tamela Mann are proud grandparents to an impressive eight grandchildren!
Ice-T
In 1976, while Ice-T was still in high school, he and his girlfriend welcomed a baby girl named LeTesha. He later welcomed a son in 1992 named Ice Tracy Marrow with his girlfriend at the time, Darlene Ortiz.
That same year Ice-T welcomed his first son and became a father for the second time, his daughter welcomed a son of her own named Elyjah Marrow, making Ice-T a grandfather at the time. His grandson can be seen in past episodes of Ice-T’s reality show, Ice Loves Coco.
Mike Epps
Mike Epps and his ex-wife had two daughters with each other, but Mike is a father of four girls. While he admits he misses the fact he never had a boy, he certainly didn’t seem to mind when his daughter welcomed yet another girl into their family.
The Uncle Buck actor has often shown his admiration and affection for his granddaughter Skylar and taken on the joys of being a grandfather. He has admitted he feels ‘blessed’ for his four girls, so another girl is another blessing.
Flavor Flav
Rapper, famous Public Enemy hype man, and VH1 reality television superstar Flavor Flav has a total of seven children- Karen, Kwan, Designa, William, Kayla, Karma, and Shaniq. With so many kids of his own, it was only a matter of time before Flavor Flav became a grandfather.
Back in 2012, Flav announced via a Twitter photo that he is a proud grandfather to four beautiful children- Michael, Eric, Matew, and Brianna. These kids might just have the coolest grandpa on the block!
Ron Howard
Ron Howard was once a famous child actor. He played Opie Taylor on The Andy Griffith Show in the 1960s and Richie Cunningham on Happy Days in the 1970s. In 1981, Howard’s wife, Cheryl Alley, gave birth to Bryce Dallas Howard, who would later go on to become a famous and successful actress in her own right.
In 2007, Ron Howard became a grandfather when Bryce gave birth to her son, Theodore. In 2012, Bryce gave birth to her second child, Beatrice.
Terrence Howard
Because Terrence Howard has been raising a family for numerous years, he is now in the unique circumstance where some of his children are younger than his grandchildren. The actor, now in his late-40s, has five children and two grandchildren.
In 2016, Howard explained in an interview, “I’ve got a 4-year-old granddaughter and I’ve got a 2-year-old grandson, and they call Hero (Terrence’s youngest) and Qirin (born in 2015) ‘baby uncles.’” There will undoubtedly be an interesting family dynamic as these kids grow up!
Goldie Hawn
She started her career as the girl from the 1960s hit TV show, Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, and Goldie Hawn went on to become an Academy Award-winning actress. Meanwhile, Goldie is the mother of Oliver Hudson, Kate Hudson, and Wyatt Russell, and a grandmother of five, and soon to become six.
Speaking to World Entertainment News Network, Hawn said, “I love being a grandmother. When I was pregnant, I knew the exact right thing to do, having a baby, and I feel exactly the same about being a grandmother.”
Priscilla Presley
The former wife of Elvis Presley is 73-year-old Priscilla Presley. The age-defying American actress is also mother to Lisa Marie Presley and Navarone Garibaldi, who have made her a grandmother of four.
Lisa Marie has been married four times, including to Michael Jackson and Nicholas Cage, but welcomed two children with her first husband, Chicago-born musician Danny Keough. In 2006, Keough served as best man to her fourth wedding to Michael Lockwood, and the couple has since welcomed twin girls.
Naomi Judd
Naomi Judd, the one half of the hugely successful band “The Judds,” is a grandmother of two thanks to her daughter, and fellow band member, Wynonna. The pair has sold over 20 million records together and had 15 of their hits become number ones.
However, the Grammy Award winners have not had the easiest time following the demise of their band. Judd was diagnosed with Hepatitis C, which forced her into early retirement, and Wynonna’s daughter has been jailed for selling illicit substances.
Sarah Palin
Just before John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign, where Sarah Palin served as the vice presidential running mate, she was at the forefront of a political firestorm. At this time, the traditional marriage advocate’s unmarried, 18-year-old daughter, Bristol, fell pregnant with Levi Johnston’s child.
Regardless of her mother’s views, or the rest of the world’s for that matter, Bristol chose to go to full term with her pregnancy and she welcomed a son named Tripp. Bristol has since welcomed two more children, two daughters named Sailor Grace Palin and Atlee Bay.
Vicki Gunvalson
56-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star, Vicki Gunvalson, is a grandmother of two. The reality starlet, and mother of two, is the proud grandmother of boys Troy and Owen from her daughter, Briana Culberson.
Earlier this year, however, the boys’ father, Ryan Culberson, called out the RHOC grandmother on Instagram for ignoring her grandson’s calls, creating a public feud. Meanwhile, Vicki has since posted more photos of her grandsons after visiting them over Memorial Day weekend, suggesting it is all water under the bridge.
Jane Seymour
She first played the Bond Girl in Roger Moore’s first Bond movie, Live and Let Die, but these days, Jane Seymour is a mother of four and the doting grandmother of three. While she played as one of the most beautiful Bond girls, she says becoming a grandmother is her favorite role yet.
Speaking of her grandchildren, who call her “Oma,” she said, “I love having my grandchildren over. I think playing with the grandchildren keeps me young. They have endless energy, and it’s so much fun.”
Jessica Lange
Speaking of her family, Jessica Lange said, “You are no longer the center of the universe. It opened my heart, made me a different person. Every move you make is with someone else in mind. I loved being a mother more than anything else in the world, and being a grandmother is even more fun.
There’s the chance to do it again. It’s in the perfect order of nature: You raise your children, and then the next generation comes along. They are the redemptive force in nature. Plus, it’s easier!”

Her eldest grandchild, Mason Disick, was born when Kris was just 52-years-old, and all of her children, except one, have since gone on to have a baby of their own. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight about her growing family, she said, “It just doesn’t get any better than this.”

Billy Crystal must have been proud to show off his work to his grandkids once they were old enough to understand what he did for a living and see him in films. Having confessed that he does ‘enjoy being around the kids,’ he spoke more about his grandchildren.

Kid Rock
When Kid Rock’s son, Robert Ritchie, Jr. welcomed a baby girl in 2015 on Christmas Day, he made his rock star father a grandfather at the age of 44. Kid Rock had raised his son as a single father and was overjoyed to welcome a granddaughter.
