The lookalike daughters with famous mums – can you guess who's related to who?

THE phrase 'like mother, like daughter' is certainly true for a number of gorgeous celebrities and their glamorous daughters.

In fact - one of the hottest trends among famous mothers is twinning with their lookalike daughters for social media snaps and A-list events. So, can you recognise who each of these rising star daughters is related to?

Advertisement More on famous families Signed by Storm at 16, Lexi's natural beauty has drawn comparisons to her famous mother, particularly when they twin on the red carpet. Proud mum Amanda, 54, has nothing but praise for her lookalike daughter. She previously gushed: 'She has a very natural beauty — she just looks stunning.' While Amanda is known for her daring wardrobe choices on Britain's Got Talent, she admits to keeping a close eye on Lexi's wardrobe for anything too revealing.

A family photo from Greece - with mum Judith, 72, and other daughter Hollie, 13, - showed the good looks run deep with four generations of beauty in one snap .

However, her daughter Lila, 22, whose dad is Jefferson Hack, the co-founder of Dazed Media, is quickly becoming a standout figure in the fashion world. Following in her mother's footsteps, Lila has already walked the runway for major designers like Miu Miu and Richard Quinn, solidifying her place as a catwalk rising star. Advertisement Her career began at just 14 — the same age Kate was discovered — and she's continued to flourish ever since, earning high-profile gigs with top brands. By 16, she was named the face of Marc Jacobs Beauty, landed her first solo Dazed Magazine cover, and featured in Miu Miu's Spring/Summer 2020 campaign.

Now 26, Phoenix has paid homage to her Spice Girl roots by recreating iconic looks from Mel's past, including her gold two-piece from the Spice World poster. She's also channelled her mum's patchwork bikini top and trousers from Spice Up Your Life, proving the Scary Spice legacy lives on. Raised by Mel after her split in 2000 from first husband Jimmy Gulzar, Phoenix is now carving her own path as a model and entrepreneur.

Sophia, daughter of Canadian footballer Paul Peschisolido, has been modelling since the age of 21, when she landed a Topshop campaign back in 2017. Advertisement She later became a face of PrettyLittleThing and lingerie company Boux Avenue, and developed life as an influencer - with proud mum Karren even becoming her photographer when lockdown forced her to work from home. The campaigns made her in-demand for reality shows, especially Love Island, but she always turned them down. "I've been asked to go on it twice but I've turned it down," she told The Sun back in 2020. Now Sophia, who shares son Leo with fiancé Frankie Makin, is now preparing to hand the genes to a second baby, after announcing she is pregnant in April.

Advertisement Back in 2015, Miller reflected on the profound impact of motherhood , telling The Observer: 'I think having a baby really changed everything, if I'm honest.

Born in 2004 after Heidi's split from Formula One executive Flavio Briatore, Leni was later adopted by Heidi's ex-husband, singer Seal, who also fathered her three younger siblings. Leni often mirrors her mum's style, recently teaming up with her for a bold, colourful cover shoot for Dutch Vogue in matching tailored suits .

Actress and singer-songwriter Apple Martin has previously shown she has a talent for music just like her dad, Chris Martin, after helping to write Coldplay's album Music of the Spheres last year. Fans previously gushed over Apple's uncanny resemblance to her famous mum, after the pair attended an event hosted by Goop, Gucci, and Elizabeth Saltzman in the Hamptons, New York. Gwyneth split from Chris in March 2014, famously calling the break-up "consciously uncoupling." Advertisement BE A FAIR PAIR By Clemmie Fieldsend THEY say imitation is the highest form of flattery, and for celebrity kids it's a must-have look. But it hasn't always been. Remember when you were young and your mum used to dress you and your siblings, or worse the whole family, in matching gear for a family photo? I wince at the flashback. Back then it was considered a bit naff, but fast forward to today and it seems that every A-lister and their daughter is a clobber clone. Style crowd But forget the Eighties, when everyone would wear matching bright cable knits; or the Nineties, when co-ordinated nautical looks could be seen hanging in everyone's hallway – these days twinsets are far more stylish. You can be a doppel-glamour duo, like Amanda Holden and her daughter Lexi, who like to match their cut-out dresses, or Hells Angels, like Kim Kardashian and young North West, whose twinsets are made of leather. You could take it to Heidi Klum and Leni's extreme lengths and pair your pants. But whatever you decide to do, if you want to be in with the style crowd you'll need to be seeing double.

Lewis said to the crowd: "Glastonbury, it's so good to be back. I'm not gonna say much up here today because if I do, I think I'll probably start crying.

Capaldi rounded off his set with a rendition of Someone You Loved. Holding back tears, he said: "I've got one more song to play before I leave. I think we all know what song it is. "I've really missed doing this over the last two years. It's been really difficult to think this wouldn't ever happen again. "Genuinely from the bottom of my heart, it means the f****** world. "I struggled to sing this song two years ago for a different reason. Tonight, I think I'll struggle to sing it for another one. This time it's a good one.

I tried Lionel Messi's £53 GOAT 10 wine to see how it compared to grapes of other football greats including Prem legend

FOOTBALL has given us some of our most memorable moments… and one man in particular has grasped the hearts of millions around the globe. He's won LaLigas, Champions Leagues, a record eight Ballons d'Or and lifted the World Cup in 2022 - he is arguably the greatest of all time. 25 Lionel Messi launched his own range of wines, the GOAT 10 collection Credit: MM Winemaker 25 The Argentine great opted against a wine produced in his native homeland Credit: MM Winemaker 25 The GOAT 10 Sicilia Syrah IGT costs just north of £50 Credit: MM Winemaker 25 SunSport's Joshua Jones put the footballers' wines through a blind taste test Credit: SunSport It's safe to say Lionel Messi has crushed it on the pitch… now he's crushing grapes off it, with his own line of wines. Messi has followed the likes of Andres Iniesta, David Ginola, David Silva and Andrea Pirlo in releasing his own bottle of plonk - linking with award-winning MM Winemakers to launch the His adoring fans are able to get their hands on a bottle of his premium Sicily Syrah or Puglia Primitivo reds for just north of £50. SunSport had grape expectations once we got our hands on some of the wine. Read more football news And we thought we should put the GOAT 10 through its paces and see how it plays in the glass... whether it has that shirazzmatazz worthy of a Ballon P'Our. A blind taste test was in order so SunSport headed to So how does Messi's vino stack up against the footballing competition? And can we guess the player from the taste of his wine? SunSport found out... Most read in Football CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS ANDREA PIRLO - Pratum Coller Nitor IGP Montenetto (£23) The first hidden bottle we tested was a white wine that had an immediate early impact. Richard showed us what to look for, smell for and ultimately taste for - and I (somehow) correctly identified citrus as one of the key notes, albeit suggesting grapefruit instead of lemon and lime or even peach. Chelsea legend Gullit becomes 'instant meme' as video of him staring at wine drinker who shakes waiter's hand goes viral Then I scored my first own goal of the testing session… swallowing down a big gulp of the vino rather than swirling it around my mouth and back out into a spittoon as the pros do. This was a fresh, classy wine that one could easily enjoy for a full 90 minutes with the acidity a clue it is Italian - and for that reason, I guessed Andrea Pirlo, a classy footballer, a crowd pleaser and perfect on a summer's evening. Get a bit too much of it, though, and Pirlo's wine might leave you down on your backside looking a little silly - a la Joe Hart at Euro 2012. The Italian maestro owns the Pratum Coller vineyard which has 15 acres of vines and produces 25-30,000 bottles per year.

Richard seemed genuinely quite surprised and impressed when I correctly identified the vanilla notes in wine No2. This delicious darker white had honey, smoky and even explosive tints - in part due to the grapes growing in volcanic Gran Canaria. This wine has aged well and reflects its owner who kept going until 37, David Silva - and like the four-time Premier League winner, deserves more accolades than it is given credit for. SunSport guess: GINOLA, Richard guess: SILVA 25 David Silva's Tameran Malvasia Volcanica is produced in Gran Canaria Credit: Gourmet Hunters 25 The ex-Manchester City star bought the vineyard in 2019 and has a range of wines Credit: DAVID GINOLA - Coste Brulade Provence Rosé 2023 (£14) As we hit half-time, it was time to shake things up with a rose - Richard informed me wine tasting is done by starting with whites, then roses and then finally reds. This floral, red-fruity and summery number had Wimbledon vibes - but more the All England Club rather than the Crazy Gang at Plough Lane. Spurs fan Richard's expertise suggested this SunSport guess: GINOLA, Richard guess: GINOLA 25 The Coste Brulade Provence Rosé 2023 had a taste of summer Credit: General Wine Company 25 David Ginola helped make award-winning wines with Coste Brulade in the 2000s Credit: PA 25 The rose was a French number oozing with elegance - fitting for Ginola Credit: PA ANDRES INIESTA - Corazon Loco Tinto Joven 2022 (£15) Well into second half, now, and this is where the reds come into their own. This one was so deep in colour it looked like it had parked the bus - Jose Mourinho would be proud. Straight off the nose, I could detect the flair and creativity and we picked out flavours of cherries, blackcurrants and blackberries. Whoever made this had clearly put plenty of time in perfecting his craft in the vineyard… just like they did on the pitch. This is a consistent wine that can step up at any occasion - Champions League semi-finals at Stamford Bridge to World Cup finals in Johannesburg. Impressing in red with his Corazon Loco - which means 'crazy heart' - Andres Iniesta certainly played with his heart and went crazy in red (well, it was the blue away kit!) when he scored the winner as Spain were crowned world champions in 2010. Andres' father Jose planted ten hectares in the 1990s and the SunSport guess: INIESTA, Richard guess: INIESTA 25 The Corazon Loco Tinto Joven 2022 is a red from Andres Iniesta Credit: Vinissimus 25 The Spaniard showed 'crazy heart' when he won the World Cup for his country in 2010 Credit: News Group Newspapers Ltd 25 Bodega Iniesta was established in the same year as Spain's triumph in South Africa Credit: 25 The family business now grows 14 grape varieties across 300 hectares Credit: LIONEL MESSI - Sicily Syrah IGT (£53) And lastly, sneaking in during injury-time was the fifth and final wine - and a real showstopper, too. I got hints of earthiness - not dissimilar to the smell of the Nou Camp pitch from my visit to Barcelona. And Richard cleverly pointed out that this could mean it is from a player who is used to leaving opposition defenders in the dirt. So while Lionel Messi may not be renowned for his physical strength or height, he has And his smooth and silky GOAT 10 Syrah wine does the same with its full-bodied complexity, good acidity and spice, dark fruitiness and subtle floral and oak flavours… this wine can do a bit of everything - sound familiar? The quality number has plenty of velvety tannins - natural compounds from skins, seeds and stems - and the high alcohol content (14 per cent) leaves a slight burning sensation in the mouth. The good long finish stays in the mouth - an indicator of the footballer's lengthy career and red-hot ability to find the back of the net more than 850 times. Interestingly, the Lionel Collection is produced from grapes grown in Italy… for a player born in Argentina and made his name spending most of his career in Spain.
