Her Mothers partner for many many years was Herry Enfield. She was born and raised with the entertainment in her being. Her brother is an actor as well, the odds of becoming a singer or an actor is so so rare, for siblings even rarer. They didn’t get where they are from pure talent alone, either of the Allen’s!
Funny you should mention him, because this 2015 story was circulating on Twitter last week and I meant to share it here. It’s very strange (and sad of course):
Eve Hewson has retweeted a similar sentiment about nepo babies. I actually hadn’t realised she was a nepo baby til now and tbh, if I was her, I wouldn’t be drawing attention to the fact that Bono was my dad. All the nepo babies are up in arms about this, even if they’re trying to make a joke of it, but it actually sucks that there are so many of them.
Brooklyn Beckham is just the epitome of someone who would not even be able to get a job of any kind without his parents, yet has work most highly skilled people would dream of ( the photo book etc)
Because you can’t polish a turd, basically. Even with all that behind him, he’s still a very ordinary looking, slightly dim person. Some nepo babies inherit the best of both parents and others the worst, unfortunately. Some of them do have talent but they still need that drive to succeed which is when they become a star in their own right, whereas that’s all missing from BB, and I think that’s partly down his parents. They’ve thrown all sorts of hobbies and careers at him hoping one of them will stick, instead of pulling him out of the limelight where he belongs. I mean someone, somewhere should have told him his photography book was dogshit well before it got to the publishing stage, but I imagine VB and DB praising him behind the scenes like a toddler who’s managed his first wee in the potty.Is Brooklyn dumb or just lazy, though? He (and his nepo peers) had the best education money could buy, not to mention tutors, sports, music, experiences, literally any hobby they wanted as kids. You'd think they'd be well-rounded, interesting people. Why does this happen? I need to know!!
Omg I have no idea why it happens but having worked with a not insignificant sample of people from these schools I don’t understand it either!! And it’s my #1 argument to my husband about not sending ours. Like re the top schools I can see a difference but that might also be confirmation bias as they are clearly old money and tend to be older so have had decades as senior execs in their industries so they are smart and interesting and tbh usually charming… but I’ve never worked with anyone from a no name school who is particularly brilliant? Or even particularly nice tbh. And an even smaller sample size but I don’t know of anyone IRL or the Insta mama set on Insta who went to a (always no name lol) fee paying school who could in turn afford the fees for their kids which…… is pretty damning? And a pretty unsustainable business model surely? Especially as that boomer cash won’t last more than 2/3 generationsIs Brooklyn dumb or just lazy, though?

Indeed he is.
Edward Richard Enfield (3 September 1929 – 21 February 2019) was an English television and radio presenter and newspaper journalist.
You also have Romeo Beckham, released from an Arsenal academy but 6 years later with no affiliation to any club, not even played for anyone he signed to a major MLS club,l… owned by his dad. Didn’t work his way up, straight into a professional club…. Would love to know how many other footballers on the planet get plucked from nowhere to play in a major league??? I know this isn’t Lily but she has added fire to this argument. How is that even fair or ok? It’s a joke!Is Brooklyn dumb or just lazy, though?

I mean I wouldn’t be mad if someone gifted me it but I felt it was very…meh.And today showing off her freebie Chanel handbag
The font and layout kills me too. It looks like a book you use while kids are learning to read.
I think Eve is a good actress, but I was disappointed when Behind Her Eyes aired, and she was on every tv show British or otherwise promoting it, as well as herself. Hosts seemed to be extremely taken with her being Bono's daughter, I think that's why they called on her. Couldn't believe it when I watched the show and she wasn't even the main female lead.
She looks slim and healthy in the DM pics - but looks very thin on her very recent Instagram photo. She has clearly filtered the Instagram photo, to make herself look underweight. She has done this, knowing full well that some people will comment on the insta photo, about how thin she is.Lily doesn't look scarily skinny here, which is good to see...
