Teyana, Junie and Rue Taylor
The way Teyana Taylor consistently shows up and shows out in care and love for her two daughters Junie and Rue is always a sweet sight to see. Given how multi-talented Teyana is, it’s going to be a treat to see what lanes her mini-me’s grow and evolve into!
Diana and Tracee Ellis Ross
Arguably one of the most famous mother-daughter duos around, Diana and Tracee Ellis Ross are some of the most interesting people on the planet. They’re both glamorous in their own ways which only further adds to their respective icon-ness!
Gabrielle, Zaya, and Kaavia Union-Wade
Gabrielle Union gets twice the fun with daughters Kaavia and Zaya Wade in the house. While there’s a bit of an age gap between the two kids, there’s no gap when it comes to the love and support Gab and hubby Dwyane Wade show towards them!
Marjorie and Lori Harvey
The mother, daughter that slays together, stays together–or at least, we think that’s how that saying goes. Regardless, that’s definitely the case when it comes to Marjorie and Lori Harvey. From their fashion sense to all around luxurious lifestyle, they’re both #goals!
Beyoncé, Blue Ivy and Rumi Carter
You already know Bey, Blue Ivy and little Rumi Carter were going to make this list. With the way Blue and Rumi have taken over social media this year, we truly can’t wait to see how powerful of young women they grow up to become!
Niecy and Dia Nash
As if Niecy Nash being your mom wasn’t a blessing enough, Dia Nash also got a double portion when she was born looking just like her. Now that’s what you call good genes!
Michelle, Malia and Sasha Obama
While Michelle, Malia and Sasha Obama may no longer be the First Family, they’ll forever have first place in our hearts when it comes to mothers and daughters we love to see out and about!
Keri and Yara Shahidi
Talk about a child who stole their entire mother’s face! Yara and Keri Shahidi both as beautiful as they are intelligent and compassionate.
Serena, Olympia and Adira Williams
Will Serena Williams’ daughters Olympia and Adira Ohanion be the next set of sister tennis greats? That remains to be seen but for right now, we know they’re being loved on extra good by their famous mom and that’s really all that matters!
Jada Pinkett and Willow Smith
Say what you will about Jada Pinkett Smith, but we all know she doesn’t play when it comes to her daughter Willow. Their bond is admirable no matter which way you slice it!
Savannah and Zhuri James
Can you honestly name another duo cooler than Savannah James and her daughter Zhuri? Seeing them murk the latest dance trends on social media is equally cute and swagged out!
Tichina and Alija Kai
Not only do Tichina Arnold and her daughter Alija look alike, but they’re sense of humor is UNMATCHED. Whenever they pop up on social media or on red carpets together, it’s going to be a good time!
Ciara and Sienna Wilson
The fun thing about Ciara and her daughter Sienna Wilson is that the latter is clearly a ball of bubbles and personality while her mom is a bit more demure presenting. It’ll be fun to see how they play off of each other as the years go by!
