Kaley reportedly said that every parent “has their process,” and has actually noticed that Matilda cared less about screen time with the more she watched. “I think that’s the trick,” the actress said.

The Camarillo, California native anticipated Matilda would follow their family’s acting tradition, as she admitted: “I don’t know how this child will not be an actress. I mean, it’s an acting family.”

While both Matilda’s parents are actors, she also has a famous aunt, Briana Cuoco, who competed on the fifth season of The Voice and co-starred with her on the HBO Max series The Flight Attendant, in which Kaley played the lead.
