It was a magical Mother's Day for Lauren Sanchez who thanked her kids with a rare family photo on Instagram.
The media personality and philanthropist posted a snapshot of herself with her sons; Nikko, 24, and Evan, 18, but it was her daughter, Ella, 17, who caused fans to do a double take.
Growing up fast
Lauren keeps her kids out of the spotlight, meaning fans don't often get to see her offspring growing up.
One look at the image, and it is clear that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, especially where Ella is concerned.

Fans could be forgiven for thinking they were looking at a younger Lauren with her olive complexion and full lips.

In fact, all of her children have inherited her genes, making for an attractive family photo.
Lauren shares her two youngest children with her ex-husband, Patrick Whitesell and Nikko's father is her ex, Tony Gonzalez.

"I'm not saying that being best friends with your ex is the end-all be-all," she told The Wall Street Journal. "But you do need to be able to communicate. I’m so proud of it. My son looks at me, and he’s like, 'I'm the luckiest boy in the world because I can have Thanksgiving with both my parents and they don’t have to be married.'"

The event is shaping up to be the wedding celebration of the year, with Katy Perry, Eva Longoria, and the Kardashians all expected to attend.

"I think it's gonna be like a Princess Di thing," Paul told TMZ.

"I'm thrilled beyond belief," he continued. "It's gonna be an amazing event. It's gonna be star-studded and fun."
