Diane Lane Reflects on Parenting Teen Daughter Eleanor Lambert
Diane Lane, the 59-year-old actress, recently shared some heartwarming memories of her daughter Eleanor Lambert’s teenage years during an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show.
Lane, who shares Eleanor with ex-husband Christopher Lambert, reminisced about the joys and challenges of raising a teenager. When asked about her own teenage years, Lane humorously responded, “Myself or raising one?”
She revealed that Eleanor occasionally shares embarrassing stories from her youth, to which Lane jokingly said, “Chickens come home to roost.” Despite the occasional embarrassment, Lane expressed her deep love for her daughter.
Lane also shared a funny anecdote about a car ride with Eleanor, where she threatened to legally change her daughter’s name to “God mom stop” due to her repetitive phrases. The actress fondly recalled how much fun it was to embarrass her daughter at that age.
The mother-daughter duo has since developed a strong bond, with Eleanor fully accepting her mother’s playful antics. When asked about escaping embarrassing moments with children, Lane attributed her inner 14-year-old self for keeping the spirit alive.
During her appearance, Lane also reminisced about her first Hollywood party as a teen, where she met legends like Laurence Olivier and Peter Frampton. She shared a nostalgic moment of meeting Frampton and receiving a treasured photo from the encounter years later.
Overall, Diane Lane’s reflections on motherhood and her teenage years serve as a heartwarming reminder of the special bond between a mother and daughter.
