There’s nothing like Monday to bring out our inner Wednesday Addams. We’re tired and gloomy and — wait. Is that a cute little baby giggle?! It’s like music to our ears! Christina Ricci shared a video of her 16-month-old daughter Cleopatra “Cleo,” giggling with her older brother Freddie, and it’s too cute to miss.
“Happy Mothers Day!!! ♥️♥️♥️@markhamptonhair ❤️🔥,” Ricci captioned the video on Instagram. In it, her husband Mark Hampton is holding 16-month-old Cleo, while her 8-year-old son, who she shares with ex James Heerdegen, is swimming around the pool making her laugh.
Cleo’s adorable little belly laughs are like a balm to the soul. As Hampton tosses her in the air, she just uncontrollably laughs. Her joy is contagious, and we can’t stop smiling, too!

During the video, Freddie goes underwater, then pops up like a human jack-in-the-box, making Cleo shriek and laugh even harder.
As if she couldn’t get any cuter, at one point, she goes on her belly and starts swimming! Hampton’s hand is on her tummy for support, but she is a pro moving her arms and legs in the water as her older brother swims by her side. Such a cutie pie!

PaleyFest LA 2023 – “Yellowjackets”
Hampton shared his own post to honor the Yellowjackets star on Mother’s Day. He posted a picture of Ricci and her lookalike son Freddie on Instagram, writing, “Happy Mother’s Day. I love you. We love you. You’re the most incredible mom and wife a man could ever wish for. #millionsofyears @riccigrams.”
Later, he also shared a picture of his “smart” daughter Cleo, who is already a selfie pro.
“Someone managed to take a super secret selfie. At 16mnths,” he wrote alongside a hilariously blurry picture of Cleo looking at the camera with her big brown eyes. “This one’s smart. @riccigrams #notfrommyside 😹”

Christina Ricci Started Acting at 7 YearsOld
On an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show in March, Ricci reflected on starting her acting career at just 7 years old — and how she now uses that as leverage with her son Freddie.
“I started when I was 7,” she tells hosts Kelly Clarkson, who responded, “Geez! Like, my daughter is 8.”
“Yeah, my son is 8 and I always use it against him,” Ricci said with a laugh. “He’ll tell me he can’t do something, and I’ll be like, ‘Well I was working 12-hour days outside in the cold when I was a year younger than you.” Clarkson laughed, saying, “You’re that mom.”
“So guess what, I know you can do it!” she added.

Christina Ricci Enjoys Spending Time atHome
Even though the Wednesday star is still a super busy working mom, she loves low-key days with her family, like the one she had on Mother’s Day.
In an Oct. 2022 interview with SheKnows, Ricci revealed, “All I do when I’m able to be home is hang out at the house and hang out with the dogs and with the kids. I really don’t do anything else but that when I’m not working.” It sounds perfect!
