Meet Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr.'s Kids

Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar's Kids Have Birthdays Only 6 Days Apart!

Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar were the ultimate '90s couple, and now they're the ultimate celeb parents to 11-year-old Charlotte and 8-year-old Rocky. Although the star couple can't avoid being in the spotlight, they've worked hard to ensure their children's privacy, especially as their kids have gotten old enough to start having opinions about their lives being shared publicly. Still, they've found ways to share snippets of their family life with the public (even if it means having the kids facing away from the camera), and it's super sweet and relatable! Here's what we do know about Charlotte and Rocky, from their superclose birthdays to their own challenges and more.

Charlotte Grace Prinze

Born Sept. 13, 2009, Charlotte Grace Prinze was the first child for Freddie and Sarah. By age 7, her mother revealed, Charlotte was following in her parents' footsteps and taking on her first acting role!

"So no matter how hard we have tried (and believe me we have tried) to convince our daughter to find any hobby but performing, she has shown a great love (and talent) for being on the stage (wonder where she gets that from?)," Sarah wrote in a 2016 Instagram post. "She decided to join a musical theatre program for kids from 6-12 and be part of their production of The Lion King. We tried to prepare her, that as she is one of the youngest, she would probably only have a small role . . . but nope . . . meet baby Simba!"

As she's gotten older, Charlotte, now 11 years old, has developed a very strong opinion on the great debate of her mother's career: Team Angel or Team Spike? Sarah told Us Weekly in February that Charlotte "loves . . . Buffy and Angel."

Rocky James Prinze

Rocky James Prinze was born on Sept. 19, 2012, only six days after his big sister's third birthday. "Mother and baby are doing great. And Charlotte is VERY excited to be a big sister," a representative for the family told Us Weekly following Rocky's birth. As with Charlotte, Rocky has mostly been kept out of the spotlight by his parents.

Sarah did talk about Rocky in October 2020, when she spoke to Today's parenting blog about discovering that he has myopia. Initially, she explained, she chalked it up to eye strain from switching to full-time online learning amid the pandemic, but she soon realised there was more to it. "They said not only did he have myopia — the common term is nearsightedness — but it was progressing extremely rapidly. . . . You have to go with your gut as a parent," Sarah said. "I think that's the best advice I've ever learned. You know your kid." Rocky apparently is not interested in wearing glasses, partly out of concern that it would affect his ability to play sports, but has been adapting to contact lenses.

As a family, they've been trying to adapt to pandemic life as much as possible and stay active together. "We're pretty strict about screen time," Sarah added. "During the school day screens are only for school, so there's no television, there's no texting friends, there's no nothing. As soon as school's out, we try to do physical activity outside as a family whether it's hiking or taking a walk or biking or swimming. We've also gotten really into board games."
