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.

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.

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.'
