Matthew Kerrigan was not even born yet when her mother Nancy was involved in an ice-skating scandal back in 1994. She was walking toward the locker room when her competitor, Tonya Harding’s ex-husband, hit Nancy’s leg with a baton. Eventually, Harding pleaded guilty.
Fortunately, Nancy has long moved on from the incident. Fortunately too, her son Matthew chose a career far from the skating rink. Matthew, though he knows how to skate, is doing costume design work. Matthew, who was born in 1996, is the eldest of Nancy’s three kids with husband and agent Jerry Solomon.
Jada Pinkett-Smith’s son: Jaden Smith
The Smith family is a family gifted with talent, skill, and good looks. Jaden Smith, like his sibling Willow, is also into acting and music. However, Jaden is recently focusing his energy on movies and television. He co-starred in his father’s movie, "The Pursuit of Happiness." He was also seen in the film, "The Day the Earth Stood Still."
Jaden is similarly serious about making a name for himself away from the shadow of his famous parents. He reportedly moved out of his parents’ $4 million home to become independent. He will certainly miss this home, based on his interview on "The Ellen Show" where he revealed that everything he eats and uses in the Will Smith household is totally free.
Will Smith’s daughter: Willow Smith
Willow Smith clearly takes after her talented parents. Being the daughter of actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett has evidently rubbed off on her. She is multi-talented and is able to professionally act, sing, and dance. Similar to other celebrity kids, she appeared with her father in the movie, "I am Legend." Though she dabbled into acting, it may not be where her heart lies.
Willow released two singles in 2010 and 2011. Her most famous song was “Whip my Hair”, followed by “21st Century Girl”. “Whip My Hair” reached the 11th spot on Billboard Hot 100 and was even nominated for the 2011 Video of the Year at the BET Awards. Willow is clearly making a name for herself away from the shadow of her parents.
Samantha and Darrin Stephens’ on-screen daughter: Erin Murphy
If you remember the television sitcom "Bewitched," you highly likely know Erin Murphy. Though she grew up with her real parents, fans of the show remember her most as Tabitha, the daughter of Samantha And Darrin – a role she played from 1964 to 1972. Take note though that the character of Erin Murphy was actually two babies.
Due to laws that prohibit children to work more than the required hours, the producer chose fraternal twins for the role. Erin, along with her sister Diane, starred in the show and shared equal billing. Erin was mainly used for close-up scenes while her sister Diane was utilized for long-shots. Thankfully, the two managed to lead a normal life after the show ended.
Allen Iverson’s son: Allen Iverson II
NBA’s Most Valuable Player, Allen Iverson, was one of the league’s best. In his heydey, he reportedly received a whopping $200 million prior to his retirement in 2013. Sadly, despite his wealth, he declared bankruptcy years later. Things aren’t all that bad though.
Thanks to Reebok, Allen Iverson is set to receive $800,000 annually for as long as he lives due to a deal he made with the shoe company. Plus, a trust fund will also be created for Allen worth $32 million – of which he will not be able to touch until 2030. Fortunately, his son is doing well sans the senior Iverson’s financial status.
