I was on location and away from my daughters [currently in middle and high school] who I felt were needing a mother,” in reference to Romy and her little sister Cosima, 12. Or, at the very least, granted a sequel on the social media platform. In 2020, she made her modelling debut for cult Gen Z brand Heaven by Marc Jacobs, where she styled and shot all the photos for the campaign herself. She then panned the camera to her babysitter’s boyfriend, who was petting a dog in the five-storey West Village townhouse that her parents bought in 2012 for $9.85 million (£8m). She’s not just a nepo baby, but a nepo-grandbaby — with legendary Hollywood director Francis Coppola of The Godfather fame as her grandfather. No, it was because she attempted to charter a helicopter from New York to Maryland to have dinner with a friend from summer camp — all with her father’s credit card.

Assuming she figures out a way to circumvent her parents’ rules again, I can’t wait to see her sophomore project. “Make a vodka sauce pasta with me because I’m grounded,” the video begins — an intro that could come from any bored teen with access to their parents’ liquor cabinet. She goes on: “Because they don’t want me to be a nepotism kid.
