Liv had her first film role at the age of three, appearing in 2005’s Trust the Man, directed by her dad and starring her mom. Four years later, she also played a role in another of Freundlich’s rom-coms, The Rebound.ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb Moore is the author of the Freckleface Strawberry series of children’s books, and in 2014, she launched a math-building skills app for kids featuring the character. Liv voices Freckleface Strawberry in the games. “She did such a great job as the voice,” Moore said in an interview with People. “She’s so adorable, and real as the voice. That’s what I love about it…[Other kids] will know they’re listening to a child rather than an adult doing a child’s voice.” However, Moore has also said that she doesn’t believe her daughter will go into acting as a career. “I don’t think she really knows what she wants to do yet,” the Still Alice star explained to CBS This Morning in 2016. “When people ask her about acting, she’s like, ‘Not that.’” For more famous offspring, check out See Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick’s Son All Grown Up. In February 2017, Liv booked her first gig as a model, sporting looks for J.Crew at the brand’s New York Fashion Week show. And the fact that she was an amateur was a plus. As People points out, the J.Crew show did not feature experienced, professional models, but regular people. “@Jcrew beauties @lisaeisnerjewelry and my very own @livfreundlich ❤#realpeople,” Moore captioned an Instagram post of her daughter, also tagging Lisa Eisner, a jewelry designer working on the show. After Liv’s modeling debut, Moore spoke to People about trusting her daughter to navigate the pressures of the fashion world and the spotlight in general. “She is a wonderful student and a really great girl and an interested person,” the actor said of her teen daughter. She also added that growing up with parents who work in the movies helped Liv to tell the difference between reality and fiction early on. “When she was really little, she said, ‘You know mommy, some people get really scared when they watch movies but I don’t because I know that they’ve made everything up,’” Moore recalled. “She always understood the concept of illusion and I think she understands that with fashion as well.” For a celeb kid who’s pursuing modeling in a big way, See Pierce Brosnan’s Lookalike Son Paris on His Latest Magazine Cover. Speaking to Departures in 2020, Moore said that her daughter had encouraged her to become an activist. The star explained that since the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, she has been very vocal about the need for gun control laws, which wouldn’t have happened without her daughter. “My daughter was 10,” Moore said. “We had spent the whole day trying to keep the news from her. She literally said, ‘Mommy, did a bunch of little kids get shot today?’ I was like, I’m not being a responsible parent or a responsible citizen if I don’t become involved in this movement.” Moore then became involved in the organization Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense. The actor also noted that she’s continued to have open conversations about violence and racism with Liv, who’s currently studying at Northwestern University. When she was still in high school, Liv started a chapter of Students Demand Action. “She was the person who started my activism and became an activist along with me,” Moore explained. “My son is very involved in the social justice movement. They’re both awake and aware.” And for more entertainment and celebrity news sent to you directly, sign up for our daily newsletter.
