Christina Ricci is a proud mother of two, and her youngest has just reached a major milestone: her first birthday. “This little dream baby turns 1 today!!!!” The ‘Wednesday’ star captioned a photo of daughter Cleopatra Ricci Hampton draped in a striped sweater and crocheted hat. “She is a gift from the universe. Opened our hearts wide again.” Ricci’s husband, famed hairstylist Mark Hampton, shared his excitement in a post of his own Instagram. “A lap around the sun! What a year,” he captioned a photo of himself and Cleo curled up outside.
In addition to her daughter Cleo, Ricci has an 8-year-old son, Freddie Heerdegen, whom she shares with ex-husband James Heerdegen. In a September interview with persons, Ricci said that Freddie was “really helpful” to Cleo and was a fantastic big brother to his little sister. “He can help me make a bottle. He can help me with her in the bath. It’s really great,” she said, adding that she sometimes pays Freddie to watch Cleo “20 minutes at a time in her little playpen.” “There wasn’t much sibling jealousy or anything like that. That was a great relief.”
While Ricci keeps her kids out of the spotlight, parts of her Instagram page — and Hampton’s — are flooded with photos of Cleo, as well as the occasional photo of her son. She even shared videos of baby Cleo gargling, sleeping and picnicking with her dad.
