Kate Moss' Daughter Grew Up To Be Stunning

Kate Moss' daughter, Lila Grace Moss Hack, was born in the shadow of an ultra-famous parent, which was likely a challenging way to grow up. Yet somehow, Moss Hack has navigated the spotlight since birth, and she's done so seemingly effortlessly. The whole world has been watching the only child of Kate Moss since she was born on Sept. 29, 2002, and, while she's still young, Moss Hack has already made a mark on the world around her.

Of course, Moss Hack has followed in her famous mom's footsteps to some extent. But at the same time, she's also carved out a life all her own.

Fame can be ruthless, but, throughout her life, Moss Hack has conducted herself with the utmost grace — whether she's on a red carpet, at a runway show, or at a photoshoot. That's probably the reason why she's made so many famous friends along the way, who have nothing but spectacular things to say about her. Read on to discover all about the stunning transformation of Kate Moss' daughter, Lila Grace Moss Hack.

Kate Moss' daughter grew up with separated parents

Lila Grace Moss Hack's parents, Jefferson Hack and Kate Moss, first met and began dating in 2001, when, according to Vogue, he interviewed the model for Dazed and Confused. While her parents may no longer be together, Moss Hack still has a very loving relationship with both her mom and dad. Despite never marrying and separating after their daughters birth, the former couple are both very involved in raising their daughter.

Speaking with the Sunday Times in June 2016, Moss Hack's father explained how he makes co-parenting with his ex work. "I spend a lot of time with Lila Grace," he told the publication. "She's 13 and my relationship with her and her mum, Kate, is the thing I'm most proud of. That is life with a capital L."

Hack went on to add that, despite a hectic schedule — he is the CEO and founder of Dazed Media — he is always sure to plan his schedule around his daughter. "I have Lila at least one night in the week and every other weekend," he revealed to Sunday Times. Clearly, even though her parents separated, Kate Moss' daughter had a mom and dad who were determined to raise her well.

Lila Grace Moss Hack, Kate Moss' daughter, had a deeply private childhood

Lila Grace Moss Hack's parents made a point to largely keep her out of the public eye in her earliest years of life. Aside from a few paparazzi shots here and there, the world didn't hear much about the personal life of Kate Moss' daughter during her adolescence.

But by the time Moss Hack was 9 years old, details about her life started slowly emerging through the grapevine. In 2012, the world received the first indication that she might follow in the footsteps of her famous mother and embark on a modeling career.

It was thanks to her god-sister Iris Law, daughter of actors Sadie Frost and Jude Law, that we received the tidbit of info. In an interview with Amuse magazine, as reported by the TelegraphIris revealed that she and Moss Hack had been busy having mock photoshoots at home. "My god-sister, Lila, and I have got into the habit of creating little photo shoots every time we see each other," she told the publication. "I enjoy this, because it's everything I love in one go: it's creative, it makes you think... it's fashion," she shared.

Kate Moss' daughter has had a big personality since she was a kid

Lila Grace Moss Hack is one special lady, and no one recognizes that more than famed fashion designer Marc Jacobs. Kate Moss, one of several supermodels who accidentally found fame, has always been a muse to Jacobs, and, when Moss Hack was born, she became instant family.

Jacobs has spoken out on his special bond with Moss Hack, and, in October 2018, he took to Instagram with a special message about her. He explained that he'd first met a young Lila Moss Hack ten years earlier in 2008. He was on vacation in Ibiza at the time and met with Moss in Formentera for a day. "At just 6 years old, Lila's strong character, demeanor and great beauty was already very apparent," Jacobs noted.

He continued, "The next time I saw Lila was in August of 2011 at Kate's wedding, her character was even more dynamic and her beauty even greater." The designer went on to praise Kate Moss' daughter for her "beauty, composure, patience and kindness."

Kate Moss' daughter had a relatively normal upbringing with a strict mom

It may be near impossible for the daughter of one of the biggest supermodels on the globe to have a normal upbringing, but Lila Grace Moss Hack's parents did their best to do just that.

In an interview with Porter magazine, Kate Moss explained why it was important to her and her ex to keep their child grounded and give her a typical upbringing. Just like many mothers, Moss has held her daughter to some pretty strict standards. Regarding her relationship with her godchildren and her daughter, Moss revealed, "I'm really strict, but I think they quite like it. Lila says that I'm stricter than other parents."

However, Moss admitted that being strict helped her daughter in school, as Moss never had to nag her kid to do homework. "I don't [nag], because she knows, she does it on her own," the supermodel explained. Further elaborating on her parenting style, Moss shared that she's not afraid to use "scare" tactics when it comes to laying down the law. 

Considering how Lila Grace Moss Hack has grown and matured, we'd say this style of parenting worked well and Kate Moss' daughter benefited from it.

Kate Moss' daughter interviewed this famous model as a young teenager

At 13 years old, Lila Grace Moss Hack likely had a dream come true when she was offered the chance to interview a certain supermodel for her father's magazine. Alongside her bestie Stella Jones, Kate Moss' daughter interviewed her idol, none other than Gigi Hadid, for Dazed.

Moss Hack spent an afternoon in London with the elder Hadid sister, asking her things like, "How old were you when you had your first kiss?" and "What's the craziest thing you've ever been asked to do for a shoot?" Then Moss Hack hit Hadid with some hard-hitting questions. She asked, for instance, if Hadid felt like she had to be a role model for the young girls that look up to her. In response, Hadid shared words of wisdom, saying, "I think the most important thing is for people to just be genuine, and not pretend to be someone that they're not. Because the people that look up to them want to know that the person they are asking for advice from is genuinely living those things, and knows the right way to guide them."

And given Hadid's influence, we'd guess those words stuck with Moss Hack.

Kate Moss' daughter started following in her mother's footsteps

It was only a matter of time before Kate Moss' daughter set her sights on a modeling career, and, by 2018, she had solidified a spot in the fashion world. In an interview with Allure magazine, Lila Grace Moss Hack revealed how she caught the modeling bug and why she decided to get behind the camera herself.

"I loved going to watch her on shoots," she explained, referring to the countless times she tagged along with her model mom. "I think because I've seen it since I was so small it's always been an interest."

But eventually, after years of accompanying her mom, Moss Hack gave modeling a try herself, and she was hooked. "When I did my first modeling shoot, I was like, Yeah I enjoyed it. I want to do more," she said. The year the Allure interview took place, she landed a big gig with Marc Jacobs, and, in a full circle moment, her mom called to inform her daughter of the exciting news. Soon enough, it was Moss who was supporting her daughter for a big photoshoot.

Lila Grace Moss Hack, Kate Moss' daughter, landed her first major campaign as a teen

While Lila Grace Moss Hack had spent countless days on set with her mom growing up, it wasn't until she was a young teen that she landed a campaign of her own. Her first big gig? Modeling for London-based company The Braid Bar.

The then-14-year-old was announced as the newest face of the U.K. hair brand in May 2017, and the photographs from her shoot were beyond stunning. Kate Moss' teenage daughter was seen rocking super colorful braids and a face of minimalist makeup alongside her friend Stella Jones, daughter of The Clash's Mick Jones. The brand shared a snapshot of the two girls to Instagram, announcing them as their official "#braidbaes."

That being said, although the Braid Bar partnership marked Moss Hack's first official campaign, Kate Moss' daughter wasn't exactly a stranger to the camera.

Kate Moss' daughter signed to this prestigious modeling agency

As much as Lila Grace Moss Hack tried to distance herself from her mom's shadow, it only made sense that eventually they would work in tandem. Kate Moss owns her own talent agency, and, in October 2018, Moss Hack was signed to it at 16 years old (via Evening Standard).

With the likes of singer Rita Ora and Game of Thrones star Gwendoline Christie, as well as Ella Richards and Stella Jones, also signed to the agency, Kate Moss' daughter was in good company. When Moss first announced the launch of her agency, she revealed what she was looking for in new clients. In a 2016 interview with Business of Fashion, she explained that she was looking for multi-talented stars. "You know that film Gia? Faye Dunaway plays the agent. I could so do that!" Moss said. "But I want to focus more on managing people's careers than just [running] a modelling agency."

To the publication, Moss further noted, "I don't really want pretty people, I want people that want to sing and dance and act — I want to create stars." Clearly, she thinks her daughter is one talented lady.

Kate Moss' daughter has stolen beauty tips from her mom and another famous star

Kate Moss is not only a fashion icon, but she's a beauty icon too. Moss has been the face of countless cosmetic and hair care brands. So, when it comes to her daughter's beauty tips and tricks, a few are borrowed. Lila Grace Moss Hack has admitted she's learned a few things from her mom when it comes to applying makeup.

"She tells me to always make [my makeup look] natural and she loves curling her eyelashes," Moss Hack told Allure magazine in an October 2018 interview. "Everyone finds that a bit scary but I do it every day because of her." 

Another makeup mogul she pays close attention to? Kylie Jenner. Kate Moss' daughter went on to explain why she keeps tabs on the lip kit queen's social media pages, noting that she enjoys watching the reality TV star's Snapchat videos "when she applies her makeup every day, cause she does it really close up which I like."

Lila Grace Moss Hack, Kate Moss' daughter, has taught her mom a few things

Kate Moss has endlessly been inspired by her daughter, and, while she's kept Lila Grace Moss Hack's life incredibly private, there's been a handful of times the model has mentioned her in interviews. When speaking to Harper's Bazaar in November 2018, Moss revealed how Moss Hack keeps her technologically savvy and up to date on new trends.

"She teaches me everything," Moss admitted. "Lila and her friends follow all the beauty blogs and Instagram accounts, and she'll be like, 'Mum, you have to try this, it's amazing what they can do now.'" Moss went on to explain that, while she doesn't know much about contouring, her teenage daughter is basically an expert. She shared, "She does all that contouring and stuff, which I'm sure they do to me when I'm at work."

Moss also doesn't follow the beauty industry quite as closely as her teenage daughter. "I love beauty products more than ever — as you get older, you have more to hide — but I'm not obsessed," she added. Sounds like Kate Moss' daughter has a particular interest in the beauty world.

Kate Moss' daughter landed some major magazine covers

Before she'd even become an adult, Lila Grace Moss Hack had already graced the front cover of a little magazine called Vogue. Moss Hack and her mom stunned on the cover of Vogue Italia in June 2016, posing for a black and white profile shot. Sure, it was a joint cover with her famous mother, but it set the stage for more magazine covers to come.

Two years later, Kate Moss' daughter landed a solo cover when she posed for Dazed magazine's Winter 2018 issue. Her father is the co-founder of the magazine, so it was only a matter of time until Moss Hack graced the front cover, and she looked absolutely gorgeous while doing so. Styled by her godmother Katy England and photographed by Tim Walker, Moss Hack was pictured in a strapless black dress that featured a massive polka-dotted bow and a large black veil that swept across her face. The moment, according to Dazed, was "sixteen years in the making."

Kate Moss' daughter had an epic 16th birthday

When you're the daughter of a mega-famous supermodel, birthdays are probably a little sweeter than most. When Kate Moss' daughter turned the big 16 in 2018, it was indeed the sweetest day of all. However, it was also surprisingly low-key and actually pretty normal.

Lila Grace Moss Hack spent the day alongside her mom, best friend Iris Law, and Law's mother, Sadie Frost. Their activity of choice? A day of boating in the sunshine. In photos from the day, as shared by W magazine, the ladies were seen consuming copious amounts of Nutella, which only made Moss Hack seem more down to earth than ever. 

Of course, her family documented her birthday shenanigans, and Moss Hack's godmother penned the nicest message about her goddaughter on Instagram. "The kindest loveliest [goddaughter] I could ever ask for. We have all shared so many wonderful family moments," she wrote in the post's caption.

Kate Moss' daughter attended this royal's wedding and looked stunning

Lila Grace Moss Hack was one of the lucky guests in attendance at the wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank on Oct. 12, 2018. As the couple were wed at St. George's Chapel in Windsor, A-list guests were in attendance, including Kate Moss and her daughter. Other notable guests included Naomi Campbell and Demi Moore, as People reported.

It was a truly memorable moment for Moss Hack, who doesn't always public appearances with her mom. At the wedding, the teenager wore a pastel pink dress and a matching floral headband. Kate Moss' daughter tossed a black fur jacket over her look and was photographed entering the church alongside her mother, as noted by Harper's Bazaar. Meanwhile, Moss wore a black and white polka dot number.

The mother-daughter duo was not previously announced as guests at the wedding, so it was the ultimate surprise for fans to see them enter the chapel that day. According to People, Moss and Eugenie's mother, Sarah Ferguson, had connected through Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief charity fashion shows.

Kate Moss' daughter has sat front row with the modeling elite

These days, Lila Grace Moss Hack no longer hides away from the public eye, and, in fact, she's been seen sitting front and center at a number of fashion shows. When Longchamp's 2020 spring/summer runway show kicked off in New York, Moss Hack was proudly sitting there amongst the night's most stylish guests, including fellow models Kendall Jenner and Coco Rocha. As reported by Vogue, she actually flew in just for the night before returning home for school on Monday.

Then, in an interview with Vogue, Kate Moss' daughter further explained why it was so important to her to support the brand Longchamp. "I've sort of grown up with the brand," she explained before the presentation kicked off. "It makes me feel confident, and it's always chic." Moss Hack added that she appreciates Longchamp being a brand she and her mom can wear together. "I feel like it fits every age," she added. 

That being said, Longchamp was hardly Moss Hack's first runway rodeo. She's also been spotted sitting front row at events for Dior and TopShop.
