Jun 16, 2020 by apost team

Audrey Hepburn is beloved the world over, not only for her iconic movies that are just as popular today as they were in her time but also for her kindness and humanitarian work.

Following in her footsteps is her granddaughter, Emma Hepburn Ferrer, who is just 26-years-old and an artist, model, and UNICEF ambassador. Although Emma didn't get to meet her grandmother, she embodies her spirit through her own humanitarian work and stylish looks.

Born to Audrey's son Sean Ferrer in Switzerland in 1994, just one year after the late actress passed away, Emma has followed in her grandmother's footsteps by becoming a model and activist. And while she never met Audrey herself, she has talked about being close to her grandmother in spirit.

In an interview with Madame Blue magazine, Emma explained that while it's hard for her to discuss similarities to her grandma since she never met her, one thing does tie them together. She explained:

"Some people tell me that I have her eyes or that I look like her, and sometimes I can’t see it at all and other times I think, well, maybe I do, who knows. But I think more than that I do feel connected to her through the work I do with UNICEF and the humanitarian causes I’m involved with which is wonderful. When I was younger, I did somewhat prevent the feeling of being connected with her because I never really believed I could be as good as her, so it's wonderful that now through this work I’m doing I get to feel a more spiritual connection with my grandmother. I feel that I have to do good things in this world in the ways she would have wanted them to be done."

That is a wonderful thing to share with her famous grandmother, as Audrey was always so generous and kind with her time, as she worked with charities around the world.

Emma frequently posts to her Instagram page, often using photos of her modeling assignments. In one post from March 2018, she shared a gorgeous close-up photo of herself that was originally taken for Elle Brasil. In it, she's wearing a brown velvet shirt and looking fresh-faced and stunning with little makeup and her natural curls on display. She captioned the post: "Thanks for the shoutout, @ellebrasil!"

With her own star rising, Emma has also been featured in Harper's Bazaar, where she was photographed wearing outfits that bore similarities to her grandmother's iconic films. At the time of the interview, she was in her third year of studying at the Florence Academy of Art in Italy. She also described in the interview that she had a knack for the arts as a child, specifically drawing and ballet.

It's wonderful to see Emma blossoming into her own as a young woman and artist, but that she still holds a deep connection to her incredible grandmother. We look forward to hearing more about Emma's successes in the future!
