Long before Paris Hilton embraced the roles of wife and mother, she was synonymous with the club scene. Her identity was intricately linked to the vibrant nightlife. Now, it appears her almost-one-year-old son, Phoenix, is following in her footsteps, proudly showcasing inherited dance-floor enthusiasm.
On TikTok, Hilton delightedly shared a video montage featuring Phoenix energetically grooving in his chair. The clever editing made it seem like he was dancing beneath a pulsating multicolored strobe light, all set to a track she recorded with the legendary DJ Steve Aoki. Over the footage, Hilton playfully noted, “When you realize that clubitis is hereditary and your mom is Paris Hilton” (View clip here, but beware of flashing lights!).
The next day, the proud mother posted another adorable clip of “Baby P” nodding his head rhythmically while on a plane with his family—a heartwarming sight.
Phoenix, born via surrogate in January 2023, has been a focal point of Hilton’s motherhood journey, openly shared on social media and documented in her reality series on Peacock. However, this transparency has its drawbacks. Hilton addressed the unkind comments triggered by a photo that drew attention to the size of her son’s head on Instagram Stories, stating, “Living life in the spotlight, comments are inevitable, but targeting my child, or anyone else’s for that matter, is unacceptable… If I don’t post my baby, people assume I’m not a great mother, and if I do post him, there are some people who are cruel and hateful. I’m a proud working mom, and my baby is perfectly healthy, adorable, and angelic.”
Acknowledging her learning curve, Hilton vulnerably admitted on camera that she hadn’t changed her baby’s diaper for the first month of his life. Now, as a mother of two (with her daughter aptly named London), there are sure to be more lessons and joyful dance parties in their future.
