Kate Beckinsaleis one proud mom.
“I’m not calling her up and saying, ‘Now, I’ve got a pearl of wisdom, get ready!’ " Beckinsale told the outlet, noting that she only gives Lily advice if she asks for it. “It’s been very important to me to be very independent in that respect.”

“I think, you know, it’s onerous enough to sort of look like me, you know, and me being her mother anyway and her having the same name,” Beckinsale explained. “She’s been asked since she was about 3 months old like, ‘Oh, are you going to be an actress like your mother?’ "
She continued, “I think it’s really important to her to have her own thing and blaze her own trail and do her own stuff. So as much as it’s quite difficult not to kind of be poking into her business all the time, I really do respect that and I admire how much she wants to be independent from us.”
TheEverybody’s Fineactress posted several photos from her mom’s party, including a sweet snap ofBeckinsale giving her a kissat the dinner table.

In July, Beckinsale revealed onLive with Kelly and Ryanthat shehadn’t seen Lily in personsince before the pandemic began.
“I haven’t seen my daughter for two years because of everything. Also, I went to Canada working and she couldn’t come see me,” she told the hosts. “Two years of not seeing your child is the most preposterous thought.”
During their time apart, Beckinsale and Lily relied on technology to stay connected.
“Thank goodness for FaceTime and all that, but we’re both panicking that we’ll look really old to each other,” she joked at the time. “My daughter’s 22 and looks 8. So she’s like, ‘I’m just worried that you’re going to think I look old.’ I’m like, ‘I’m going to look old!’ "
