Hilary Duff is 'proud' of how she and her husband cope with days that 'seem impossible' to deal with

Hilary Duff is "proud" of how she and her husband cope with days that "seem impossible" to deal with. The 37-year-old actress is married to musician Matthew Koma - with whom she has Banks, six, Mae, four, and 12-month-old Townes - and took to social media to celebrate his 38th birthday on Monday (02.06.25), where she insisted that she has a "more balanced" life now because of him. She wrote on Instagram: "My sweet insta poet - I can't compete with your compilation of words but I can share that every one of my days are comfier, funnier, sturdier, and more balanced with you in them. We have celebrated a lot of June 2nds together and since slide nine we've tripled in size. "I'm so proud of us - making it through some of these days seems impossible but you are always there to cook or pack a meal, keep us caffeinated, carry all the bags, let me add one more stop/plan to our day, have a last minute party, or add a new animal into our already pulling at the seams life. " The former 'Lizzie McGuire' star - who was initially married to Mike Comrie and has 13-year-old Luca with him - feels "lucky" to have had her children with Matthew, but joked that she just "hopes" that they have inherited some sort of "filter" from her. She added: "This wild house loves you. You have the most curvy/interesting mind. Truly enthralled and entertained to hear takes from it everyday. I'm lucky our kids are half you and dear god hope they get some filter from me. I hope all your dreams come true this year and and I hope we get a few more Ojai sleeps than the last. Happy 38 Daddy!"

Lizzie McGuire cast now from joining the army to new career in law

The Lizzie McGuire Movie was released on May 2, 2003, and served as the finale to the hugely popular Disney series, but since the reboot was cancelled, fans have been left wondering what the cast have been up to It's been over two decades since The Lizzie McGuire Movie brought our favourite animated series, complete with its internal monologues, to life on the big screen, embodying the early-2000s aesthetic. Premiered on 2 May 2003, the film was a Disney Channel sensation: Lizzie embarks on a trip to Rome, is mistaken for an international pop star, and even manages to evade her frenemy-turned-friend while entangled in a romantic plot with an Italian pop star named Paolo - all during a school excursion. ‌ The movie marked the conclusion of an immensely popular series that aired from 2001 to 2004, catapulting Hilary Duff into teen idol status. A reboot was announced by Disney+, but was subsequently cancelled in 2020 - following alleged creative disagreements between Duff and Disney executives over the series' themes and slightly more mature tones. ‌ Several members of the original cast were set to reprise their roles for the highly anticipated reunion. With this unfortunate turn of events, many fans were left pondering what became of the cherished actors - while some bid farewell to Hollywood, one enlisted in the Army, and others maintained their careers at a steady pace, reports the Mirror US. Here's a look at where the stars of Lizzie McGuire find themselves in 2025. Hilary Duff (Lizzie McGuire/Isabella Parigi) Now 37, Hilary Duff has gracefully made the leap from Disney darling to multitasker: mum, singer, author and actor. After conquering the teen film circuit with Cheaper by the Dozen and A Cinderella Story, Duff released pop hits like 'Come Clean' and 'So Yesterday' before eventually settling into adult TV roles with Younger and How I Met Your Father. Off-screen, Duff is now a mother of four - three daughters with husband Matthew Koma and one son with her ex, hockey player Mike Comrie. She's also become a best-selling children's author, publishing My Little Brave Girl in 2021 and My Little Sweet Boy in 2023, both inspired by her kids. She was set to lead the Lizzie McGuire reboot, but creative clashes with Disney over a more grown-up direction led to its cancellation. ‌ Adam Lamberg (David 'Gordo' Gordon) Gordo was Lizzie's best friend and the reluctant crush of many teenage girls of the time. Off-screen, Adam Lamberg walked away from acting shortly after the series ended, instead embracing a much quieter life. Now 40, Lamberg earned a geography degree from UC Berkeley, followed by a master's in public administration from Baruch College in New York - and even worked at the Irish Arts Center in New York as a development associate. He'd agreed to reprise his role in the reboot but that reunion never ended up happening. ‌ Jake Thomas (Matt McGuire) Jake Thomas was the annoying little brother everyone secretly loved. Now 34, he's grown into a jack-of-all-trades behind the scenes, dabbling in photography, directing and screenwriting - the latter of which he studied at California State University, Northridge, alongside Japanese. ‌ He's popped up in everything from Cory in the House to ER, and in 2023 launched a rewatch podcast Living Lizzie with fellow cast member Davida Williams. Ashlie Brillault (Kate Sanders) ‌ Ashlie Brillault played Kate, Lizzie's frenemy and former bestie, and then promptly exited the acting world entirely. Aside from a brief one-episode appearance on One on One, Brillault packed it in after the movie and pivoted into law. She earned her JD and now works as a criminal defence attorney in Southern California. Hallie Todd (Jo McGuire) Hallie Todd was Lizzie's patient and wise mother. In real life, Todd's career dates back to the 1970s, with appearances on Murder, She Wrote, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Life with Roger before becoming the Disney Channel's coolest TV mum. ‌ Now 62, she's mostly stepped behind the camera with her husband Glenn Withrow and daughter Ivy. The trio run a production company and write together, and according to her official bio, Todd also teaches acting. Robert Carradine (Sam McGuire) ‌ Robert Carradine also had a career long before being Lizzie's dad. With credits in Revenge of the Nerds, The Cowboys, and even Django Unchained, Carradine, now 70, has stayed consistently in work over the decades. He co-hosted King of the Nerds from 2013 to 2015, appeared on Celebrity Wife Swap, and has three children of his own. Carradine was another cast member confirmed for the reboot before it collapsed. Yani Gellman (Paolo Valisari) ‌ After playing the charming but shady pop star in the movie, Yani Gellman went on to land major roles in The Young and the Restless, 90210, Greek, and Pretty Little Liars. He's still acting, most recently in the film A Bestselling Kind of Love, and keeps fans updated via Instagram. Gellman also appeared in the underwater thriller 47 Meters Down and, fun fact, once modelled for Omega watches. Alex Borstein (Miss Ungermeyer) ‌ Alex Borstein made all of the kids and young teenagers scared of her as Miss Ungermeyer. Known for MADtv, Gilmore Girls, and as the voice of Lois Griffin on Family Guy, Borstein joined the Lizzie McGuire world just for the movie, but left a lasting impression. Now 53, Borstein has won two Emmys for her powerhouse role in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and continues to get scene-stealing roles across TV and film. Carly Schroeder (Melina Bianco) Melina was the chaotic best friend to Matt, Lizzie's brother, and Carly Schroeder had an already impressive career before that - appearing on Port Charles and in the soccer drama Gracie. But her biggest life twist came in 2019 when she announced she was joining the U.S. Army. Now 34, she's a Captain and Infantry Officer after graduating from Officer Candidate School. Daniel Escobar (Mr. Escobar) Daniel Escobar played the affable Mr. Escobar in the film and was already a familiar face thanks to roles in Curb Your Enthusiasm, Charmed, and Malcolm in the Middle. Sadly, he passed away in December 2013 at the age of 49 due to complications from diabetes.

Hilary Duff's nepo baby lands major modeling gig at age 13

Hilary Duff 's eldest child is the latest ' nepo baby ' to enter the modeling world. On Thursday, the Disney Channel alum, 37, revealed that her son Luca, 13, stars in the latest campaign for Zara's kids clothing line. Duff — who is believed to be plotting a 'pop comeback' — proudly shared Luca's shots from the campaign to her Instagram Story. The shoot showed the teenager — who Duff shares with ex-husband Mike Comrie, 44 — covered in colorful stickers as he posed in a shiny red convertible. The second shot Duff posted looked candid as the photographer seemingly snapped Luca mid-conversation as he stood in front of a white backdrop in a parking lot. Luca modeled an oversized blue T-shirt, kaki shorts and brown suede sneakers, which are pieces from Zara's Spring Summer 2025 collection for boys. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Duff captioned her IG Story posts with Luca's name as well as by tagging the official Instagram account for Zara Kids. The rest of the shoot, which has a funky, vintage summer theme, was shared by Zara Kids on Thursday. Luca looked extremely comfortable in front of the camera as he modeled more pieces from the new line with towering palm trees and tall LA buildings in the background. Fans of Duff quickly flocked to the comments to call Luca's collaboration with Zara 'brilliant.' Luca is just one of many kids of the Hollywood elite who are now trying to make their mark on the fashion industry. Nicole Kidman's teen daughter Sunday Rose, 16, made her runway debut for Miu Miu last year. NBA star Dwyane Wade's daughter Zaya Wade, 17, has nabbed major modeling gigs in the years since she came out as transgender in 2020. Supermodel Kate Moss' only child Lila Moss, 22, has been dominating runways around the globe since she was 18-years-old. Many of the top models in fashion, including Kendall Jenner, Kaia Gerber and Gigi Hadid, happen to have famous parents. Along with Luca, Duff is also mom to daughters Banks, six, Mae, four, and Townes, one. While Duff shares her three daughters with current spouse Matthew Koma, Luca's father is former hockey player Mike Comrie. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Zara Kids (@zarakids) Duff and Comrie divorced in 2016 after six years of marriage but have seemingly maintained an amicable co-parenting relationship. Duff welcomed Luca back in 2012 and he recently celebrated his 13th birthday in March. To honor the milestone, Duff shared never-before-seen photos of the teenager to Instagram along with a heartfelt caption. Luca looked just like his famous mother in the rare snaps, which showed him being a sweet big brother to his baby sisters. 'Wow,' Duff began in her gushing caption dedicated to her eldest child, her only son, on his birthday. 'Is time ever a thief. I thought ten years of being a mom felt wild... yet here I am at my son's 13th birthday.' In her caption, she also wrote: 'I can't go anywhere without people telling me what a nice kid Luca is. Sweet, heart facing forward with the coolest point of view.' Duff praised her son's intelligence, even admitting that he 'knows more' than her because she 'didn't have a "normal" schooling experience.' She listed the many activities she enjoys sharing with him, adoringly highlighting 'the best' parts of him, before concluding that the very best part is being his mom. 'He can talk anyone under the table about soccer, players dating back to the 70's, specific games that defined history,' she wrote in her caption. 'He's an amazing creative drawer, a beautiful writer (hopefully more of that in the future) and I *think* taking a new interest in history,' she continued. 'It's been so fun listening as he talks about the world's history — since I didn't have a "normal" schooling experience,' she wrote. 'There are definitely some gaps and it's sure cool to have the tables turned and see how much more he knows more than me. 'Just in this one instance of course,' the Lizzie McGuire alum joked. 'It's so cool to see his interest shift, his confidence sure footedness and knowing being learned.' She gushed: 'My only son. I love you more than the moon and as far as all the stars in the sky. 'Hanging with you is the best. Getting a text from you .. the best. Talking late and snacking in the kitchen is the best. Driving you is the best (even though you forget all your s***),' she added. 'Watching you play soccer is the best. Listening to hip hop with you is the best (let's gooo Kendrick and lil tecca). 'The kind of big brother you are is the best. Your smile is the best. Your humor is the best. You being fully YOU is the best. Being your mom is the BEST. 'HAPPY 13 Angel, forever standing by to cheer you on. -mom,' she wrote, concluding her sweet birthday post. Seemingly after she shared the post, her son sent her a text and told her that she 'put a big smile' on his face. 'Sweet Luc, I'm so d*** lucky I got you. Proud doesn't even [begin to] describe [it],' she wrote to him. 'Glad your [sic] having a good birthday I could hear it in your voice.'
