The media, photographers and fans start the hype about celeb kids and grandkids even before they are born! And once they are, they have to get used to growing up in the spotlight, and also basking in their parents’ and grandparents’ peripheral glow. Blessed with a rock-solid gene pool (and probably a rock-solid trust fund in their name, too!) these celebrity children and grandchildren have it good!

We may remember them from the time they were little, holding their parents’ or grandparents’ hands on the red carpet, but now they’re old enough to hold their own. They have successful careers now, some are teens, while some are married with kids. Nevertheless, life has presented its share of challenges for a few, leading to some legal encounters and personal difficulties.

Find out what these celeb kids look like now and what they have been up all this while…

Will Smith’s Son, Jaden Smith – Actor and Rapper

We are all aware that Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’s Will Smith has two sons, but his second son Jaden is the more popular one because he appeared in his movie The Pursuit of Happyness when he was quite young. Jaden then starred in The Karate Kid remake and teamed up with his dad again for the movie After Earth.

Jaden also has a promising career as a rapper, having released two albums so far, 2017’s Sre and 2019’s Erys. Surprisingly, he became legally emancipated from his parents on his 15^th birthday, with their consent, as Will and his actress wife Jada raised him to be independent from a young age.
