Naomi Watts’ Teen Child Brutally Roasted For Looking “Miserable” Next To Mom On Red Carpet
Naomi Watts lit up the red carpet at the premiere of The Friend in New York yesterday (March 24). Despite being all smiles during the event, netizens couldn’t help but notice the stark contrast of her demeanor with that of her 16-year-old teen, Kai Schreiber.
The teenager, who had recently made their runway debut at Paris Fashion Week, appeared glum and unenthusiastic while standing beside their jubilant mom. The model’s seemingly frozen expression sparked a wave of comments online.
Highlights

In one particularly uncomfortable moment, the Australian actress seemed to notice the 16-year-old’s uncanny expression, grabbing the model and laughing, as if to try to force an emotion out of the stoic teenager.

The pair contrasted not only in their demeanor but also in their outfits, with the model wearing a dark-colored polka-dotted jacket, featuring small pink dots on a dark background. The jacket was accentuated with a large black bow at the neckline.
