Kate Beckinsaleis one happy mother.
Their reunion came just hours after Beckinsale admitted that she and her daughter, whom she shares with exMichael Sheen, 52, hadn’t seen each othersince before the pandemic.
“I haven’t seen my daughter for two years because of everything. Also, I went to Canada working and she couldn’t come see me,” she explained last week onLive with Kelly and Ryan. “Two years of not seeing your child is the most preposterous thought.”
Beckinsale and her daughter were most worried they wouldn’t be able to recognize each other after the time apart. “Thank goodness for FaceTime and all that, but we’re both panicking that we’ll look really old to each other,” she said.

“My daughter’s 22 and looks 8. So she’s like, ‘I’m just worried that you’re going to think I look old,'” Beckinsale continued. “I’m like, ‘I’m going to look old!'”
Beckinsale previously revealed that sheoccasionally enjoys a sniff of her daughter’s sockswhile she’s away at New York University. “I think kids think when they grow up and leave home you have nothing to do all day-when in fact one can have a rich and full life huffing one’s way through their sock drawer and wearing all their pants at once,” she wrote on Instagram in 2019.

“I’m just having a little sniff of one of her socks while she’s away,” Beckinsale later joked onGood Morning America. “Actually, I mainly did that to embarrass her. I said if you leave home, just know I’m going to be going through your underwear drawer, just huffing everything while you’re gone. I won’t be going out, I won’t have a life, I’m just going to be smelling your underpants and your socks.”
Beckinsale has remained close with Lily’s father, whom she dated from 1995 to 2003. “I think the thing is, if you both really put your kid’s well-being first, and share a sense of humor, you’re sort of halfway there,” she said of co-parenting with Sheen in 2017 while appearing on Netflix’sChelseawithChelsea Handler.
