She added, “Of course my oldest daughter really thinks that she’s grown… so she tries to help me with anything that she possibly can and it’s just the sweetest thing ever.” Plus, Lyric is taking after her parents in more ways than one!
When speaking withPIX11 Newsin January 2023, Pratt revealed that both her daughters are showing interest in acting. “They’re characters. Their parents are both artists in every single way, so there’s no way around it,” she said.
