With Lisa Rinna no longer a part of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she’s had to find other pursuits away from reality TV. Most recently, she followed in her daughter’s footsteps to hit the runway.
Amelia Gray Hamlin began her runway career in 2017 at just 16 years old. Since then, she’s modeled for the likes of Chanel, Tommy Hilfiger, Vivienne Westwood, Miu Miu, and more.
Of course, that’s a big career for any one person to handle. As such, Amelia has considered herself lucky to have her mom by her side in recent months. While Lisa modeled before, she’s been leaning into the runway now more than ever.
Lisa Rinna and Amelia bond over modeling
Amelia spoke with PEOPLE about her mother’s budding runway career and their time spent together. “I think it’s been so beautiful for the two of us to be able to go on this fashion journey together. Never in a million years did I think that my dreams would also overlap with my mom’s, but we’re loving this for her.”
She continued, “Being able to travel all over the world together at the same time has been this really nice opportunity for our relationship to grow.”
“We’ll go to dinner and I’ll ask her for advice and she’ll ask me for advice,” Amelia added. “Nobody understands this industry except for the people in it, so it’s been really nice for both of us to navigate this together.”
The young model also voiced plenty of praise for her mother, saying, “She’s the reason I am who I am. I am so lucky that that is the woman that raised me. To be exposed at such a young age to unapologetically love yourself with zero shame has just made me who I am today.”
