National Sister Day 2017: Celebrities You Didn’t Know Were Siblings
Sometimes talent runs in the family. Several famous faces in Hollywood are actually related, but you might not realize which celebrities are sisters. It looks like there will be plenty of celebrations for National Sister Day on Aug. 7. Check out some famous siblings that you may not know about below:
Bella Thorne, Dani Thorne and Kali Thorne
The “Famous in Love” star is definitely more famous than her older sisters, but they’re making their own marks in the entertainment world. Bella, 19, isn’t the only one working in TV. Kali, 25, is an actress as well. She starred in the TV movie “Late Bloomer” last year alongside Italia Ricci and made an appearance in the FX pilot for “Snowfall.” Dani, 24, is a DJ with two acts, Com3t and Master of the People.

Vanessa and Laura Marano
Vanessa and Laura are both working actresses who just finished long running series. Laura, 21, wrapped up “Austin & Ally” last year while Vanessa, 24, finished “Switched at Birth” early this year. They’ve both been focusing on new roles since then. Laura has been working on the movies “Lady Bird” and “The War with Grandpa,” both of which are set to be released this year. Vanessa has appeared on “Silicon Valley.”
The women are working together on their next project. Laura, Vanessa and their mother are producing a movie called “Saving Zoey,” an adaptation of Alyson Noel’s book.
Nicole Richie and Sofia Richie
Of course, many pop culture aficionados know Nicole Richie very well. The daughter of Lionel Richie started out in reality TV with “The Simple Life” and went on to create a name for herself in the fashion world with House of Harlow. Now, she’s back on TV with a role in the NBC comedy “Great News.” Meanwhile, her little sister Sofia, 18, is just getting started in the entertainment industry. She started modeling at age 14 and has been featured in campaigns for Tommy Hilfiger, Chanel, Adidas and more.
Kidada Jones and Rashida Jones
Comedy fans know Rashida Jones from series like “Parks and Recreation” and “Angie Tribeca,” but fashion fans might be more familiar with Kidada Jones. She has worked with Tommy Hifiger and became a designer for Disney Couture.
Naya Rivera and Nickayla Rivera
The “Glee” alum isn’t the only famous one in her family. Her younger sister Nickayla is a model and YouTube vlogger, taking viewers behind the scenes of her photoshoots. While Nickayla is posing in front of the camera, Naya is getting back to acting after having a baby in 2015. She is set to star in YouTube Red’s original “Step Up” series, based on the movie franchise. The ladies also have a pretty talented brother, Mychal Rivera, who plays in the NFL.

Mamie Gummer and Grace Gummer
“Mr. Robot” and “The Newsroom” fans know Grace well, but they might not realize her sister is just as talented. Mamie Gummer has been all over TV as well with roles in “The Good Wife,” “Manhattan” and “The Collection.” That isn’t too surprising considering the acting gene runs in the family. Their mother is Meryl Streep.
