Keri Russell’s Daughter Willa Makes First Public Appearance at Paris Fashion Week
Keri Russell brought her 13-year-old daughter, Willa Lou Deary, along to Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2027 show in Paris on October 6, giving the teenager a chance to attend the fashion event alongside her mother.
The actress and her daughter arrived in distinctly different looks for the occasion. Russell wore a crisp white blouse with a high collar and structured detailing, styled with a black mini skirt and pointed-toe pumps. She completed the outfit with a brown Louis Vuitton handbag featuring the brand’s signature monogram and a gold chain, along with matching gold stud earrings.

Willa opted for a head-to-toe pink look for the occasion. The teenager wore a textured tweed jacket with a matching mini skirt, paired with a red Louis Vuitton handbag and black pointed-toe heels with a nude strap. She wore her hair in a slicked-back ponytail.
Willa is Russell’s daughter with her former husband, Shane Deary. The couple also share 19-year-old son River, while Russell has a 10-year-old son, Sam, with her partner Matthew Rhys.
Russell has occasionally spoken about her relationship with Willa, including during a 2023 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. At the time, she recalled introducing her daughter to Felicity, the series that made her a household name in the late 1990s.
The family has remained largely private, although Russell and Rhys have offered occasional glimpses into their home life. At the 2026 Emmy Awards, Rhys revealed that their children had even turned awards season into a friendly competition, placing bets on which parent would take home a win.

While Russell and Rhys both received recognition during the ceremony, it was Rhys who had the bigger night, taking home two acting awards. Rhys described Russell as “the class act” when praising how she treats her fellow nominees during awards season. He also said she is “always really the winner.”
At Louis Vuitton, however, the spotlight was shared between Russell and her teenage daughter, marking Willa’s first public appearance alongside her mother at a major fashion event.
