Birdie's mother is well known for starring in iconic TV show, Dawson's Creek
The nepo-baby in question is Birdie Leigh Silverstein, 16, who is the daughter of Dawson's Creek star Busy Philipps, 46.
She has just landed a role opposite her mum in the new horror-comedy, Horrified.
The movie started shooting this summer, and Busy couldn't help sharing a clip from a scene her daughter filmed for the movie.
Writing next to it, the proud mum said: "Apparently i've now completed the transformation into what is probably my truest form: STAGE MOTHER!.
"Thank you to my dear friend @zarastoriez & @horrifiedmovie for helping me to achieve this eventuality."
Busy is extremely proud of her daughter.
On her last birthday, the actress posted a slew of photos of her girl, and wrote: "Happy 16th Birthday to my Bird. There is absolutely no one like you in the world, Birdie Leigh Silverstein.
"I'm forever in awe that you're my kid(but also I'm SORRY but you're SO MY KID- your RBF is proof)
"You're the absolute funniest, smartest, greatest, best with a mind like no one I've ever met before.
"Literally every person who has ever spent time with you would agree."

She ended the sweet post with: "I love you more than anything in the world, my chicken."
Busy shares Birdie with her ex husband, Marc Silverstein.
The former couple had been married 14 years before announcing they had parted ways in 2022.
Speaking at the time on her podcast Busy Phillips Is Doing Her Best, the actress said: "It's been a really long time that Marc and I have been separated and our kids know, our families know, our friends know."

Busy shared how the pair first separated back in February 2021 and had been thinking how to reveal their split to the public.
The actress explained: "Marc and I talked about it, and when we first separated, we couldn't even think about putting one of those statements out — it made us sick, both of us, truly ill. It's a journey.
"The surest way that Marc and I have been able to ensure the privacy of our kids that we love so f**king much was by not involving the public."
Along with Birdie, Busy and Marc share another child, Cricket Pearl, 12.
Busy added on her podcast: "We love each other- very much! And we have these beautiful kids together. And there are a lot of things that really work about our relationship."
Busy previously opened up about her relationship with Marc in her 2018 memoir, This Will Only Hurt a Little.
In it she revealed she reached out for support from another man as her marriage was on the rocks.
Busy wrote: "There was a man I was friends with, another dad. We'd been having lunch and stuff. Texting. Talking on the phone a lot.
"Honestly, I had a crush on him. I like him. Maybe I even loved him? He clearly liked me too."
Busy also once told Parents magazine: "Marriage is always hard, but especially when you have kids … You're going to go through periods when you're not into it, but there always has to be one person willing to fight.
"I went to Marc several times and said, 'I cannot do this anymore. Something has to change, and it's you...'"

Strictly's Katya Jones says she intimidates guys Strictly's Katya Jones says she intimidates guys Strictly Come Dancing star Katya Jones (Image: Getty Images) Strictly's Katya Jones says she intimidates guys. She told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "Us women have fought to be so independent and strong and do our own thing, that it might send confusing messaging to them, like, 'Can I approach or can I not?' So, I totally understand why they're being hesitant sometimes, but I'm open and ready to be approached... ‌ "I might meet somebody today. You get up and you never know who you might meet. I've got to look nice... I'm always ready and open." ‌ The 36-year-old beauty is hoping to find someone to settle down and have children with, but that wouldn't mean giving up her career. ‌ She said: "I would like to have kids with someone who I believe could be a good father but I've got nieces I can spend my energy on right now, or some of my friends' children, like Janette[Manrara]. "Seeing how she does everything and is a mother as well is really inspiring. It just shows that you can do it all if you put your mind to it." ‌ Katya has considered freezing her eggs to preserve her fertility, but is ultimately hopeful she can have a family "naturally". She said: "I've spoken to women who have done it... I didn't hear about it until two years ago, which is quite surprising really. However, I still have faith in meeting someone naturally. That would be lovely." The Russian dancer was previously married to fellow Strictly pro Neil Jones for six years until 2019, and while he has moved on and had daughter Havana with fiancee Chyna Mills, he and Katya are still close. Article continues below She said: "We're absolutely still on good terms. We knew each other since we were 18 and started dancing. We lived a life together... it was me and him against the world, chasing our dreams. "We were the only people there for each other so of course there is a much more profound connection there. You can't just throw that away."

Christine McGuinness says she has can have a deeper connection with a woman The 37-year-old TV star – who split from Take Me Out host Paddy McGuinness, 57, in 2022 – revealed she wants her next serious relationship to be with a woman as she doesn't want someone who is "playing games". (Image: INSTAGRAM) Christine McGuinness prefers dating women as she can have a "deeper connection". ‌ The 37-year-old TV star – who split from Take Me Out host Paddy McGuinness, 57, in 2022 – revealed she wants her next serious relationship to be with a woman as she doesn't want someone who is "playing games". ‌ She told The Sun newspaper: "I describe my sexuality as being a free spirit. Now I'm enjoying spending time with women. I can just have a deeper connection with a woman. I like someone who knows what they want and isn't playing games." ‌ Christine – who has three children with Paddy – has only dated women for the past three years, with previous partners reported to include rapper, model and DJ Roxxxan, and singer Chelcee Grimes. However, she refuses to put a label on her sexuality – which she said Paddy has always been aware of. ‌ She said: "My ex-husband knew about it from when we first met and was fine with it." Meanwhile, Christine briefly joined the latest series of E4's Celebs Go Dating but pulled out soon after filming began. Dating expert Anna Williamson told The Sun: "It wasn't the right time for Christine to continue her journey in the agency. Article continues below "I think this is the absolute beauty of what the Celebrity Dating agency does - yes, it's a TV show, but it's also real. "And for Christine it was very brave that she wanted to dip her toe back into the world of dating and throughout the process of us getting to know her, she realised that perhaps this actually wasn't quite the right time for her to be doing that and took a great deal of confidence and bravery inside to recognise and actually now is not the right time."

Dick and Angel Strawbridge fans 'can't stop crying' after emotional post

Escape to the Chateau stars Dick and Angel Strawbridge took to social media to say 'thank you' for the 'magical memories' as fans reacted to the news Dick and Angel Strawbridge have entertained us on screen for over a decade and now the couple, along with their children, are sharing more magical memories. The much-loved duo took to Instagram today (10 August) to share a series of pictures from their amazing holiday in Australia. ‌ In the snaps, the family can be seen posing together in sweet pictures as well as enjoying the wildlife that Australia has to offer, with kangaroos and snakes joining them in the photos. ‌ Posting on The Strawbridge Family account, they captioned it: 'Thank you Australia for the magical memories. More to come on our adventures.. but we had to share some of our favourite pictures. ‌ 'We have hugged, laughed and swapped stories with so many.. it's really been truly amazing. Thank you for the love. Until the next time!' It comes after BBC Death in Paradise's Kris Marshall shares heartbreak over being sacked and losing job. Fans flocked to the comments section, with many being in complete shock at how much their children, Arthur and Dorothy, have grown since viewers last saw them on Escape to the Chateau. ‌ One fan expressed: 'One, I just want to cry. Looking at Dorothy and Arthur and how they have grown. I've watched your beautiful family from the beginning of the Chateau show (which I miss). They are beautiful. Dorothy is gorgeous and Arthur is exceedingly handsome.' Another social media user commented: 'I cannot believe how much Dorothy and Arthur have grown. I remember how little they were. I watched your TV program from the very beginning.' Somebody else agreed: 'Surreal to see how grown up the kids are considering we're still seeing reruns of the Chateau when Arthur was 9! So glad you've enjoyed our beautiful country.' ‌ While a fourth added: 'Cannot believe how much the kids have grown! Hope you all had a wonderful time.' Escape to the Chateau followed the family as they bought and renovated the 19 th century Château de la Motte-Husson, in Martigné-sur-Mayenne, France. ‌ The show began airing on Channel 4 in 2016 aired a whopping 50 episodes across nine seasons before it ended in December 2022. Revealing why they decided to end the show, the couple told HELLO! In 2023: 'It was two years ago that we decided to end the Escape to the Chateau series. 'We made the decision because the kids are growing older, and all the parallel activity was not sustainable at this level. We are doers and we are never going to stop completely, but we're also protecting them. 'Arthur is starting senior school and the pressure on our little ones is phenomenal. When he goes there, people may have heard that his parents have done stuff on television. Angel added: 'Up until this year, we were not on French television at our request because while we are the British family that bought the Chateau in the village, we are very much completely normal.'
