It's well known that some Hollywood stars are the offspring of very famous parents, such as Kate Hudson being lucky enough to call the legendary Goldie Hawn "mom". However, many other actors and actresses are a little more low-key when it comes to their parentage.
As Irish actress Eve Hewson lights up the small screen in new Netflix drama Behind Her Eyes, we reveal not only who her very famous father is, but also the stars you might not know have very A-list mums and dads indeed …
Eve Hewson
The Irish actress, 29, currently starring in Netflix's latest water-cooler debate-starter Behind Her Eyes, is none other than Bono's daughter. Her U2 frontman father's real name is Paul Hewson, and she has so far racked up roles as Carol Donovan in Steven Spielberg's Oscar-winning Bridge of Spies, and as Maid Marion in 2018's Robin Hood.
Dan Levy
The Schitt's Creek star not only appears in the hit show, he also produced, wrote and directed it. Although his surname is a giveaway, you might not know that he's the son of legendary comic actor and American Pie dad, Eugene Levy, who also stars in the hit comedy series.
Maya Rudolph
The Saturday Night Live alumni and Bridesmaids actress has a very famous and talented mum. Rudolph's mother is soul, jazz and RnB singer Minnie Riperton, most famous for her 1975 hit Lovin' You. Rudolph herself is married to There Will Be Blood director Paul Thomas Anderson, and they have four children.
Margaret Qualley
John David Washington
Although his surname will clue you in to his famous and much-loved dad, it's not that widely known that the Tenet star is double Oscar-winner Denzel Washington's son. Washington earned a Golden Globe nomination for Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman, and says of his parents: "Both of my parents are in the business and have been working for a long time, so I'm lucky to have those examples."
Toby Stephens
He cut his acting teeth playing the villainous Gustav Graves in Bond film Die Another Day, and he might well have turned to his legendary mother for some advice for delivering withering put-downs. Stephens's mum is Downton Abbey's Dowager Countess herself, Dame Maggie Smith.
Jason Schwartzman
The actor and long-time Wes Anderson collaborator, who has appeared in The Darjeeling Limited and The Grand Budapest Hotel, is the son of Rocky and The Godfather actress Talia Shire. She is also director Francis Ford Coppola's sister, which makes director Sofia Coppola and actor Nicolas Cage Jason's cousins.
O’Shea Jackson Jr
The talented actor is the son of NWA rapper Ice Cube, whose real name is O'Shea Jackson. Jackson Jr not only follows in his dad's musical footsteps, going by the rap name OMG, but also in acting, too. Ice Cube famously starred in 1991's Boyz n the Hood, and his son went on to portray his dad in the 2015 biopic about his group NWA, Straight Outta Compton.
Riley Keough
With roles on the big screen in Magic Mike and Mad Max: Fury Road, and on the small screen in Riverdale, Keough has shown she's as comfortable in the spotlight as her famous mum and grandparents. Her mother is actress and singer Lisa Marie Presley, and her grandparents are Elvis Presley and Priscilla Presley.
Mamie Gummer
The actress, 37, who has appeared in The Good Wife and Emily Owens, MD is the daughter of Meryl Streep. But despite being the child of the most Oscar-nominated actress of all time (three wins from 21 nominations), Gummer has praised her non-starry upbringing, telling The Independent: "One of the smartest things my parents did was to move to the country when we were small."

Sheikh Zayed's poem
When it is unveiled at Abu Dhabi Art, the Standing Tall exhibition will appear as an interplay of poetry and art. The 100 scarves are 100 fragments surrounding five, figurative, female sculptures, and both sculptures and scarves are hand-embroidered by a group of refugee women artisans, who used the Palestinian cross-stitch embroidery art of tatreez. Fragments of Sheikh Zayed’s poem Your Love is Ruling My Heart, written in Arabic as a love poem to his nation, are embroidered onto both the sculptures and the scarves. Here is the English translation.
Your love is ruling over my heart
Your love is ruling over my heart, even a mountain can’t bear all of it
Woe for my heart of such a love, if it befell it and made it its home
You came on me like a gleaming sun, you are the cure for my soul of its sickness
Be lenient on me, oh tender one, and have mercy on who because of you is in ruins
You are like the Ajeed Al-reem [leader of the gazelle herd] for my country, the source of all of its knowledge
You waddle even when you stand still, with feet white like the blooming of the dates of the palm
Oh, who wishes to deprive me of sleep, the night has ended and I still have not seen you
You are the cure for my sickness and my support, you dried my throat up let me go and damp it
Help me, oh children of mine, for in his love my life will pass me by.
