In the realm of Hollywood, there exists a multitude of talented families where the passion for acting, singing, or entertaining is passed down from one generation to the next.
Numerous renowned actresses have famous fathers, such as Jennifer Aniston, the daughter of the late “Days of Our Lives” star John Aniston, and Jamie Lee Curtis, whose father is the iconic actor Tony Curtis.
Miley Cyrus inherits her musical talents from her country music star dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, while Oscar winner Jane Fonda is the offspring of Hollywood legend Henry Fonda.
Among the myriad father-and-daughter combinations in Hollywood, the relationship between Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and his daughter Liv Tyler is a standout due to the remarkable journey they have traversed together.
Let's delve into their beginnings to better comprehend the depth of their current bond.
Liv Tyler, renowned for her roles in films like “Empire Records,” “The Lord of The Rings,” “Jersey Girl,” and “Armageddon,” was born in 1977 to model Bebe Buell.
At the time of her birth, Buell was involved with singer Steven Tyler, but Liv only discovered he was her father at the age of 11.
Initially, Buell kept this information concealed as Steven was grappling with a severe drug addiction.
However, following Steven's rehab stint, he and Liv began nurturing their relationship, eventually growing close and collaborating on a music video as Liv embarked on her acting career.
Their bond deepened over the years as Steven and Liv worked together and shared significant moments.
When Liv was just 16, she starred in Aerosmith's “Crazy” music video alongside actress Alicia Silverstone.
In addition to gaining a father, Liv also found a sister in Mia, Steven's other daughter.
Liv and Mia quickly developed a strong sibling connection.
When Liv gave birth to her son Sailor, both Steven and Mia were present in the delivery room, offering support while Liv's partner rushed back home (via The Guardian).
Liv even disclosed that her father helped cut the umbilical cord.
In a 2020 interview on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” Liv expressed that Steven plays an active role in her life and her children's lives, portraying a unique grandfather figure who isn't afraid to adorn nail polish and makeup.
Despite their turbulent past, Steven and Liv have fostered a beautiful relationship marked by love and mutual respect.
The evolution of Steven Tyler and Liv Tyler's bond serves as an inspiring tale of forgiveness, growth, and familial connection in the glitzy world of Hollywood.
