As the world paused to celebrate Mother’s Day, Hollywood’s biggest stars turned to social media to honor the women who raised them — and for some, to embrace their own journeys into motherhood. From touching messages to rare family photos, celebrities across the entertainment world poured out love for their moms, grandmothers, and baby mamas in a flood of heartwarming tributes.
Mother’s Day has always been a cherished occasion, but when it comes to the glitz and glam of Hollywood, even maternal affection gets the A-list treatment. This year’s Mother’s Day was no exception, as celebrities like Kris Jenner, Lindsay Lohan, Gypsy Rose Blanchard, Sofia Vergara, and many more took a moment to express gratitude and admiration for the maternal figures in their lives.
Kris Jenner Leads the Kardashian-Jenner Clan in a Beautiful Tribute
The Kardashian-Jenner family, known for their strong matriarchal presence, were front and center on Mother’s Day. Kris Jenner, the ultimate “Momager,” shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, writing:
“Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers out there! Today we celebrate YOU. The love you give, the sacrifices you make, the strength you carry, and the way you hold your families together with so much heart!”
Her post was accompanied by a nostalgic collage featuring her children — Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner — showcasing sweet family memories that tugged at the heartstrings of her millions of followers.
Each of her children has walked different paths into parenthood, from Kim and her four children with ex-husband Kanye West, to Kylie, a young mom of two. The Kardashian-Jenner women used their platforms to repost Kris’s message and share their own photos with their kids, celebrating motherhood in their unique, glamorous style.
Lindsay Lohan Honors Mom Dina with Rare Throwback
Actress and new mother Lindsay Lohan also joined in the celebration. The Mean Girls star, who welcomed her first child in 2023, posted a rare photo alongside her mom, Dina Lohan, captioning it:
“Happy Mother’s Day to my mom and all the amazing moms out there!! Your love, strength, and grace mean everything. Today is for you!”
Lohan’s heartfelt message struck a chord with fans who’ve followed her complicated but ultimately close relationship with her mother over the years. Now a mom herself, Lindsay’s tribute carried a new sense of appreciation and maturity.
Gypsy Rose Blanchard Marks Her First Mother’s Day
Perhaps one of the most surprising tributes came from Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who made headlines for her past and has recently stepped into a new chapter of life. This year, Gypsy Rose marked her very first Mother’s Day — a milestone she celebrated with a touching post showing a tiny baby shirt with the phrase:
“You’re doing a great job mama. Happy our 1st Mother’s Day.”
The post, while subtle, symbolized a major life transformation. After years of being in the spotlight for reasons she’d rather leave behind, Gypsy is embracing a future defined by healing, family, and motherhood.
Teddi Mellencamp Shares a Carousel of Family Love
Teddi Mellencamp, daughter of rock legend John Mellencamp and known for her time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, shared a carousel of sweet moments with her children. Her caption reflected her joy:
“This is what Mother’s Day is all about: Celebrating with moms you love and supporting one another.”
Teddi’s post highlighted not just her bond with her own kids, but also her friendships with other moms in her circle, shining a light on community and sisterhood in motherhood.
Sofia Vergara Shouts Out the “Mamasitas”
Always radiating warmth and humor, Colombian-American actress Sofía Vergara posted a beautiful photo with her grown son Manolo Gonzalez Vergara, writing:
“Feliz Mother’s Day weekend to all the mamasitas!!”
Sofía, who became a mom in her early twenties, has often shared the strong relationship she has with Manolo. Her post, equal parts festive and heartfelt, captured her signature charm while celebrating Latina mothers around the world.
