8 Examples of Celebrity Daughters Who Inherited Their Father's Talents

Genetics can be quite fascinating. We all know that we're made up of DNA from our parents, but depending on which genes are dominant and which are recessive, it's essentially a roll of the dice as to which parent we will resemble more closely.

A child may inherit a personality just like their father but all the physical traits of their mother, and vice versa. Alternatively, they could favor one parent entirely in both character and appearance.

It's truly intriguing when you think about it, and celebrities are no exception to the rules of genetics.

How many times have you seen a photo of a celebrity with their child and had to do a double-take because they look so much alike? It's also no coincidence that many children of celebrities tend to follow in their parents' footsteps, often choosing the same career paths.

We thought it would be fun to compile a list of celebrity father-daughter duos who are undeniably alike. Of course, there are plenty of celebrity mothers whose daughters or sons are also remarkably similar to them, but we believe these fathers and daughters deserve their own spotlight.

Keep scrolling to learn about eight celebrity daughters who have undeniably favored their fathers in the genetics department. We think these father-daughter duos are truly special!

#1 Steven and Liv Tyler

Liv Tyler not only resembles her father, Steven Tyler, remarkably, but she has also followed in his footsteps into the entertainment industry. The actress only discovered that Steven was her biological father when she was a teenager.

Growing up, she knew Steven as her mother's friend and had always been drawn to him, which made sense when she learned he was her father. I mean, you only have to look at these two to see the similarity!

Joe Schildhorn

#2 Jon Voight and Angelina Jolie

Angelina hasn't always had the best relationship with her father, Jon Voight. When she was younger, she resented him for leaving the family.
