Celeb Mothers and Daughters: A Visual Love Story - EBONY

The synergy and love between mothers and daughters.

In Maya Angelou’s book Mom & Me & Mom, she summarizes the undying dedication her mother felt for her with these words, “I will look after you and I will look after anybody you say needs to be looked after, any way you say. I am here. I brought my whole self to you. I am your mother.” Here, celebrity mothers and daughters resonate that love sentiment.

“[My daughters] are always there for me. Isn’t it interesting how the roles change? Now sometimes they’re my mom. They’ll call me on the phone like ‘Mama, you went a little too far with your Instagram post. You need to tone it down.’”

“It’s up to us, as mothers and mother-figures, to give the girls in our lives the kind of support that keeps their flame lit and lifts up their voices—not necessarily with our own words, but by letting them find the words themselves.”
