Hayden Christensen's Daughter Steals the Spotlight at Her First Red Carpet

Share Post

Hayden Christensen and Rachel Bilson’s daughter, Briar Rose, walked her first red carpet ever for an event near to her dad’s heart.

Briar Rose, 11, attended the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art Opening Night Saturday in Los Angeles alongside Christensen. The two held hands as they posed for pics together.

Briar Rose wore a white dress and strappy flats for the occasion, while the “Star Wars” actor wore a navy blue blazer over a gray t-shirt and dark jeans.

Director George Lucas co-founded the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art with his wife, Mellody Hobson. Lucas, of course, directed Christensen in the “Star Wars” prequel trilogy.

The actor told E! News on Saturday of supporting Lucas’ museum, “This is really special for me. We’re very happy to be here, and it’s a real treat to get to share this with my daughter.”

Briar Rose also shared what it was like to see her dad play iconic villain Darth Vader.

“It was really cool when I saw him up there,” she commented.

Bilson and Christensen, both 45, started dating on and off after meeting on the set of the 2008 film “Jumper.” They got engaged in February 2009, and welcomed their daughter in October 2014.

But they called it quits for good in September 2017 after nearly 10 years together.

The “Hart of Dixie” alum made rare comments about her and her ex-fiancé’s co-parenting relationship back in January, calling it “great.”

“Ours is like a unique version of it, we get along very well,” she said during her appearance on Kristin Cavallari’s “Let’s Be Honest” podcast. “We do a lot of stuff together. A lot.”

“We have been able to keep it very copacetic and nice for her,” she added, referring to their only daughter.

The actress acknowledged that they had to “compromise a lot.”

“We weren’t ever married so we figured out our own way, our own path,” she shared.

Bilson said she was still close to Christensen’s family.

“And it’s been almost 19 years or something, which is a long time,” she also pointed out.
