A NEPO baby with an award winning actress mum and Hollywood A-list dad stunned onlookers as she walked the BAFTAs red carpet last night.
At just 20 years of age, this talented actress has very famous parents whom she has followed in the footsteps of.
Her mother, who is 52 years of age, even won a BAFTA for Best Actress in a Supporting Role back in 2006.
Known for starring in Mission: Impossible 2, the famous mother also previously snagged nominations for two Golden Globe Awards.
Not only this, but she was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2019 New Year Honours for services to film and charity.
Following in her famous mum's acting footsteps, this nepo baby has starred in movies such as Tim Burton's 2019 live action remake of Dumbo.
And she even joined Renee Zellweger, Hugh Grant and Leo Woodall in the new Bridget Jones movie.
Meanwhile, her father wrote and directed the 2018 musical film Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
That's it, you've got it, it's the daughter of Thandiwe Newton and Ol Parker – Nico Parker.
Looking sensational at the BAFTAs last night, Nico rocked a black and silver gown that grazed her ankles as she walked the famous red carpet.
Nico wore her hair slicked back and in a side parting, with the young actress rocking a muted face base with a glamorous eye loook.
She accessorised with a dainty necklace and some dazzling stud earrings.
The actress' dress was adorned in sweet embellishments, and she completed the look with some pointy black pumps.
Nico's career is already glowing, with her list of film credits packed full of big titles despite her being born in 2004.
As well as starring in Dumbo and Bridget Jones, Nico played the role of Sarah Miller in the first season of the HBO series The Last of Us.
Later this year, the young star will also appear in two other major flicks.
