Teri Hatcher, 57, and her 35-year-old daughter Emerson Tenney are twins! That Desperate Housewives Alum took her only child – who she has shared with her ex-husband for nine years Jon Tenney – to the Mon Cheri Barbara Day Gala in Munich on Tuesday, November 29th. Teri absolutely beamed as she smiled while posing with Emerson and looked like she had barely aged a day since the popular ABC series debuted in 2004.
She opted for a low-cut lavender dress with a strapless neckline. The exquisite number ended with a flowy pleated skirt and a floral pattern that adds a flair Bridgeton mood to appearance. Her hair and makeup were all glamorous too, as she kept her signature brunette locks in an elegant updo, letting her complexion take center stage with a smoky eye and dewy skin. She finished the look with a pair of spiky silver earrings.
Meanwhile, Emerson – who is a spitting image of her mother – wore a strapless white dress with a bustier cut. The number featured intricate silver beads on the bodice and a skirt adorned with a rosette pattern. Emerson smiled at her mother as the photographers snapped, obviously enjoying themselves.
Teri and Emerson’s father, Jon, split right before the premiere of Desperate Housewives back in 2003, which the actress spoke about in a 2019 interview. “It wasn’t so much that my marriage changed: I was aware of the things I was settling for and thought what was there was enough. Ten years later, it just wasn’t like that,” she explained, also opening up about how the split affected her only child.
“I never wanted Emerson to have parents in different households and I will forever feel guilty that she has to go back and forth. But her dad and I are working really hard to make it as easy as possible for her and I really think she’s fine,” she said.
In 2020, Emerson graduated from Brown University, making Teri a proud mom. Taking to Instagram to share the exciting milestone, the actress wrote, “The Class of #2020 is primed to be more resilient than most and make lemonade from lemons with an eye for what really matters. After this morning’s virtual and moving ceremony, I dry my tears, blow my nose and toast all your hard work and the great things I see in your future. Congratulations on reaching this amazing milestone! I love you so much!!! #proudmama #BrownU #brown2020 #EverTrue”
