We all know how parents can be supportive and against their creative kids from time to time, right? But Olivia Rodrigo’s parents never changed their core values and the love they have for their daughter.
We all know how celebrity parents contribute to the growth of their kids. It reminds me of the story of another famous singer who is ruling the music industry currently, Taylor Swift.
Pay attention, because it is going to be interesting. Do you remember her very first song, “Love Story?”
Yes, Taylor was dating a guy at that time, and her parents highly disapproved of him. So, what happened next? She locked herself in the room and wrote the song in just 15 minutes.
Can You imagine? A song written in 15 minutes. Amazing, isn’t it?
The reason I brought Taylor Swift into this conversation is that Olivia Rodrigo is called the next Taylor Swift of the industry because she is known for writing songs like Taylor Swift.
Exes, Love, and memories. This is what they often talk about in their songs.
Just like Taylor’s parents, Olivia Rodrigo’s parents also supported her in each step of her life and never left her side.
Her Childhood with Her Parents
Olivia Rodrigo had a beautiful childhood with her parents. She never realized how her parents recognized her ability at such a young age and enrolled her name for Piano lessons.
Yes, Olivia was still a kid and wasn’t aware of things. Moreover, she also told the media that she didn’t like it at that time.
But standing here in the music industry, she uses those lessons in each song, and she is grateful for this.
Nope! They weren’t strict. They just knew what was good for her. Olivia specifically said that she was not forced to do anything in her childhood.
Now comes the later part; how are they now? Olivia’s parents didn’t change at all. Having a Filipino dad, she was overly protected. Though they supported her decision to move out at the age of 18, they kept on visiting her very often.
Furthermore, they still do that. Olivia says that though she is living her independent life, her parents are there most of the time. I think it’s pretty amazing.
Are they proud of her? Yes, they are proud of their daughter to see how well she has been doing and how confident she has become.
Conclusion
Strong women are everywhere. For instance, Victoria Fritz, or we should say Victoria Valentine is another public personality who has proven that if you got the confidence, there is nothing that can stop you.
Just like the saying, “Behind every successful man, there’s a woman,” we should say that behind every successful and confident woman, there are supportive parents who tell their daughters not to settle for less and always keep their heads up.
It is never too late. You can also build a relationship with your parents like them, just give time and have patience.
