Vanessa Redgrave is part of a British acting dynasty that spans more than five generations — and includes her three children, Joely Richardson, Carlo Gabriel Nero and the late Natasha Richardson.
The daughter of British actors Sir Michael Redgrave and Rachel Kempson, Redgrave’s acting roots can be traced back to the 1800s, when her grandparents performed in silent films and in the theater.
The next generation of family talent arrived when Redgrave had three children of her own. The award-winning actress had two daughters with her first husband, the late British filmmaker Tony Richardson: Natasha Richardson, born in 1963, and Joely Richardson, born in 1965.
Following her split with Richardson, Redgrave welcomed a son, named Carlo Gabriel Nero, in 1969 with Italian actor Franco Nero. All three of Redgrave’s children continued the family’s legacy in the entertainment world, with Natasha and Joely pursuing acting and Carlo working as a writer, producer and director.
And while Redgrave has experienced years of success onstage and on-screen, her most treasured role is that of being a mom.
“Even if you’ve got a job you love and a husband you adore, once you have children that’s what you live for,” she told The Standard in 2015.
Here is everything to know about Vanessa Redgrave’s three children, Joely Richardson, Carlo Gabriel Nero and the late Natasha Richardson.

Redgrave and Richardson welcomed their first child, Natasha, on May 11, 1963, in London.
The daughter of an actress and a director, Natasha began performing from a young age: She made her first movie appearance as an extra at the age of 4 in a film directed by her father and starring her mother, 1968’s The Charge of the Light Brigade, according to The New York Times.
It would not be the last time Natasha worked with her parents. At 22 years old, she appeared alongside her mother in the 1985 London production of The Seagull. Natasha revealed that working with her mother was “a dream come true,” but also intimidated her.
“She rehearsed like a tornado,” Natasha told The New York Times Magazine in 1993. “I was terrified of being on stage with her.”
In the early 1990s, Natasha moved to New York to continue her acting career and build a reputation of her own, outside of her family’s acting history. Over the next 15 years, her success spanned from the stage to the small and big screen. Some of her most famous roles came on Broadway — where she won a Tony Award for her 1998 performance in Cabaret — and on the silver screen, including her fan-favorite performance in the 1998 Disney remake of The Parent Trap, opposite Dennis Quaid and Lindsay Lohan.
“It just didn’t matter how much work I did in England, I continued to be seen simply as a Redgrave,” she told The Guardian in 2003. “I did feel I could be who I am in New York and we all like to feel appreciated.”

In her personal life, Natasha was married twice: First, to British producer Robert Fox from 1990 to 1992, and then to actor Liam Neeson, whom she met in 1992 while they performed together in the Broadway revival of Anna Christie. The couple married in 1994 and had two sons together, Michéal Richardson and Daniel Neeson.
However, their love story was tragically cut short when Natasha died on March 18, 2009, following a ski accident on Quebec’s Mont Tremblant. She was 45 years old.
Natasha’s untimely death devastated her family, including Neeson, her children and her mother, who opened up to PEOPLE in 2019 about the heartbreaking loss.
“Time does not heal; that would seem to me to say that suddenly it’s okay, and it’s not,” Redgrave told PEOPLE a decade after her daughter’s passing. “It never becomes OK.”

Redgrave and Richardson welcomed a second daughter, Joely Kim, on Jan. 9, 1965. As a teen, she had ambitions to become a professional tennis player — even moving from London to Tampa, Fla., to train — but eventually gave up the sport to pursue acting.
As an actress, Joely’s early successes came primarily on-screen: She nabbed her first major film role in 1988’s Drowning by Numbers and earned critical praise for her starring role in the 1993 television adaptation of Lady Chatterley. But Joely is best known for her roles on the FX hit television show Nip/Tuck, where she starred as Julia MacNamara from 2003 to 2010 (and Redgrave made guest appearances as her mother), and the Showtime period drama The Tudors.
Redgrave and Joely appeared in four films together, as well: In 1968, Joely appeared as an extra alongside her mother and sister in The Charge of the Light Brigade; Joely then played the younger versions of her mother’s characters in 1985’s Wetherby and 2011’s Anonymous. The two reunited on-screen once again in 2018’s The Aspern Papers.
Given her family’s legendary history with theater, Joely also embraced stage roles later in her career, performing in London and off-Broadway in New York.
“People would say, ‘Oh, you’re from this big theatrical dynasty,’ and I’d think, ‘Well, I’m doing an American TV show.’ I felt like a phoney,” she told The Telegraph in 2015. “I thought, I have to earn my stripes and I’ll do it slowly, and that’s sort of what I’ve done.”

Joely married film producer Tim Bevan in 1992; the couple had one daughter, Daisy, the same year. Bevan and Joely split in 1997 and divorced in 2001, which Joely described as “a pretty low time” to The Guardian. However, it was the death of her older sister, Natasha, that left her forever changed, as she revealed to Tatler in 2009.
“The shock shatters you on a cellular level, and it takes time for the pieces to come back together, albeit in a different formation,” she said about Natasha’s tragic death. “I cannot imagine that there will ever be a day when I don’t think of Tasha.”
The loss of her sister gave Joely a new appreciation for life and for family, including her mother, who suffered a near-fatal heart attack in 2015.
“Try to find the joy in life because we are so lucky to be here,” Joely told PEOPLE in 2019. “Every day, every birthday that goes by, I’m just so grateful.”

Redgrave and director Nero welcomed a son named Carlo Gabriel on Sept. 16, 1969. The former couple reunited more than three decades later, rekindling their romance and marrying on Dec. 31, 2006.
During his childhood, though, Carlo split his time between his mother in London and his father in Italy.
“Seeing us unhappy made Carlo unhappy,” Redgrave told The Times in 2016. “I hated that. I didn’t want us to fight over his future, so we did our best to share the time with him. He had his life with his father and his life with me.”
Despite their best efforts, Carlo found some elements of his childhood “difficult” — particularly shuffling between two homes in two different countries.
“That left me with a bit of a dual personality, constantly adapting to whichever country I was in,” Carlo told The Times. “I’m sure it affected my sense of security. I never grasped that idea of ‘home.’ ”

While his mother and sisters preferred acting, Carlo has made his career behind the camera. After attending film school in Italy and at NYU, Carlo has worked as a writer, producer and director — even directing his mother and sister Joely in the 2004 psychological drama The Fever.
Carlo and his mother teamed up once again to form a small film company together, Dissent Projects, that produces documentaries, including 2017’s Sea Sorrow.
“It’s no surprise that Carlo has ended up in the film business; he just happens to prefer being on the other side of the camera,” Redgrave told The Times about her only son. “I’m not sure if he’s learnt anything from me, but I’ve certainly learnt things from him. Yes, he’s my son, but he’s also a great director who’s earned respect through hard graft.”
Outside of his filmmaking career, Carlo is married to actress Jennifer Wiltsie. They share three children together.

Oprah’s Roomy Cargo Pants Are a Go-To Fall Style
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/oprahs-big-pocket-cargo-pants-5a1e945a3e654a8596b7bc3da4cbbd18.jpg)
Welcome to The Blueprint, where we break down the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and build them back up, piece by piece.
Oprah Winfrey is committed to cargo pants, so it’s obvious I have to break up with my boring pocketless pants as soon as possible.
Last fall in New York City, the media mogul wore a pair of big-pocket pants (a style she’s worn before) that prompted a light-bulb realization: I fear I have not given cargos a fighting chance. And for what? Boring pants that only have hidden pockets, or, in many cases, faux ones that can’t even stash a phone.
Not long before Oprah showed off her brown cargos, Gwyneth Paltrow wore a navy blue pair with a cropped trench coat. That gives me another reason to feel confident about trying this offbeat pants style.

The rest of Oprah’s look was grand, too: Her purple sweater was ideal for fall thanks to its three-quarter sleeves, plus her comfy sneakers finished it with polished comfort (she also wore heels with the outfit at another point in the day, but let’s keep it casual). We rounded up similar big-pocket pants, sweaters, and kicks inspired by the TV icon.

When I use regular pockets, I’m super careful because, most of the time, they’re not deep enough, so things tend to fall out when I’m sitting. In other words, they’re not that secure, and that’s why I’m picking out pants with pockets that have more room or more compartments.
These from Amazon are “very durable” and “silky” to the touch, per the reviews. Also, according to one shopper who wore them while hiking, “The pockets were big enough to hold my phone and Chapstick, so I didn’t have to carry a big bag.” They also have drawstring cuffs, so you can tie them up if you don’t want to dirty them when walking around outdoors.
Liyohon Turtleneck Top
Amazon
I can’t stand feeling like an overstuffed burrito with a thick sweater packed into an even thicker coat in the fall or winter. So, I usually choose thinner layers, but I want them to keep me at least a little warm. This turtleneck “feels more like a light sweater than a T-shirt,” according to one shopper, and it has been worn under dresses and blazers, per many others.
The purple shade here is a little lighter than Oprah’s, but the three-quarter-length sleeves are, in my opinion, the most important thing to focus on here.

Oprah also pulled a sneaky move when she did a little shoe change. We don’t know which pair came first — heels or sneakers — but I personally am a “go comfortable or go home” shoe gal, so I’m choosing option B.
In my book, suede makes anything more fall-worthy, but it can be tricky on shoes. I don’t want to have to spritz a protectant spray all over, so a pair with just a little bit of the soft texture feels easier to manage long term. The soles on these look serrated like Oprah’s, which make me believe that they’d be incredibly grippy.

Karlie Kloss welcomes third baby with husband Joshua Kushner

Karlie Kloss’ brood just got bigger.
The model has given birth to her and husband Joshua Kushner’s third baby — a girl. Kushner announced the news via Instagram Saturday by posting a photo of the newborn and revealing her name: “Rae Florence 9.18.2025 🤍.”
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel announced her pregnancy news in a March Instagram post debuting her bump.
“Three’s a party 🥹🫶🎉,” Kloss wrote at the time.
The caption referenced her and Kushner’s eldest two children — sons Levi and Elijah — who appeared in the social media upload.
Levi was born in March 2021, followed by Elijah in July 2023.
While awaiting baby No. 3, Kloss continued to show off her budding belly at the Met Gala, WNBA games and more events.
She rocked a black off-the-shoulder gown to ring in Kushner’s 40th birthday at a star-studded bash in June.
“I have loved growing up together, and can’t wait to grow old together,” Kloss captioned a celebratory tribute to the “love of [her] life and best friend” via Instagram.
The Kode With Klossy founder and Kushner have been together since 2012.
The businessman got down on one knee in July 2018, and the duo walked down the aisle in upstate New York three months post-proposal.
The duo went on to have a second wedding ceremony in Wyoming in 2019.
Although the pair primarily keep their romance out of the public eye over the years, Kloss insisted to Net-a-Porter in 2018 that they “have nothing to hide.”
In May, she explained to “Aspire” podcast listeners that their “partnership is so solid” because they met when she was a teenager.
“We’ve grown up together,” Kloss gushed. “He’s always been my biggest champion.”

Prince Harry Made Secret Visit to Another Member of Royal Family During U.K. Trip
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/Prince-Harry-092025-a3465016e82d44eb91e21f2d9ad9b0cd.jpg)
NEED TO KNOW
- Prince Harry’s four-day visit to the U.K. included a secret visit to another member of the royal family
- According to Hello!, Harry visited Kensington Palace to pay his respects to Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, following the death of his wife, Katharine, the Duchess of Kent
- Harry “loved catching up with family, friends and colleagues” during his trip to Britain, a source said
Prince Harry’s four-day visit to the U.K. included a reunion with his father, King Charles, after nearly two years, as well as a secret visit to another member of the royal family.
According to a report from Hello! published on Saturday, Sept. 20, Harry, 41, privately visited Kensington Palace to “personally pay his respects and offer condolences” to Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, following the death of his wife, Katharine, the Duchess of Kent. She died on Sept. 4 at the age of 92.
Although Harry was not able to attend Katharine’s funeral on Sept. 16, as he had already left the U.K., a source close to the Duke of Sussex told the outlet that he “loved catching up with family, friends and colleagues.”
“His only regret was not being able to stay longer and see more people, but the meetings in Ukraine had been in the diary for a long time, and it mattered to him to be there in person to see the Invictus Games Foundation’s growing work and the progress at Superhumans,” the source added.
“The whole trip felt like a real success for everyone involved,” the source said. “His passion for his patronages and the causes he cares about hasn’t dimmed one bit — he’s already buzzing to get back and do more.”

The Duke of Sussex made several public appearances during his U.K. trip, including at the WellChild Awards in London on Sept. 8, where he crouched to greet children, wrapped families in hugs and cracked jokes. In Nottingham the next day, he danced into a room at the Community Recording Studio (CRS), laughing and bantering with young activists.
“He’s still the same person,” said CRS’s Trevor Rose. “He wants to feel the energy here. He cares — and that’s the main thing.”

One of the most newsworthy moments came when Harry arrived at Clarence House on Sept. 10, and disappeared inside for a long-awaited, private meeting with King Charles. He emerged just under one hour later — and experts were quick to point out that this visit could be the first step on the road to reconciliation with his father.
“It’s a massive step in the right direction,” Queen Elizabeth’s former spokeswoman Ailsa Anderson told PEOPLE following the historic meeting. “It’s a building of trust.”

Harry and the King, 76, have been estranged for more than 18 months. As PEOPLE previously reported, the meeting not only served as a chance for the Duke of Sussex to rekindle his relationship with his father, but also with his brother, Prince William.
While the encounter marked a hopeful step forward, royal insiders caution that a long road lies ahead before full reconciliation can take place.
“It shows the way forward,” an insider with ties to both sides told PEOPLE. “It is a good starting point.”
Just a few days after the meeting, Harry made a surprise visit to Kyiv, Ukraine, with his Invictus Games Foundation and spoke with The Guardian while there.
“The focus really has to be on my dad,” he said, while also acknowledging his past revelations in interviews and his memoir Spare. “My conscience is clear.”
When asked if he will ever bring his children to the U.K. despite his security concerns, Harry told the outlet, “Yes, I would. This week has definitely brought that closer.”
“Whatever has gone on in the past, it is good to see the family trying to repair itself or communicate at least,” a source with close ties to the palace added to PEOPLE. “Everyone has to have compassion for all sides.”
After visiting the U.K. and Ukraine, Harry returned to Montecito, Calif., to be with wife Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4. On Saturday, Sept. 20, Meghan, 44, and Harry stepped out together to the One805LIVE! concert, which supports Santa Barbara County’s first responders and was held at Kevin Costner‘s oceanside estate in California.
