There are tears, smiles and some seriously indifferent faces! Check out these celebrity kids meeting jolly old St. Nick.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend’s eight-month-old daughter looked happy as can be in the picture on the left that Chrissy had posted to her Twitter page. The witty model captioned it “When your husband is in Paris but you gotta get your Santa on.” Many fans commented on how happy Luna was in the photo—but don’t be fooled. The next day Chrissy posted the photo on the right via Instagram, captioned “‘She did such a good job!” “She didn’t even cry!” We only share what we want you to see, my loves. Lol’”
Photos: @chrissyteigen via Twitter and InstagramActress Hilary Duff, 29, and ex-hubby, Mike Comrie, took their four-year-old to The Grove in L.A. to get his picture with Santa. Hilary’s sister, Haylie, was also there with her daughter Ryan, 2, who didn’t seem to take the same liking to Santa that her cousin did. Hilary posted this pic on her Instagram, writing, “Classic. Every fams gotta have one of these❤ we love meeting santa and all his helpers @thegrovela every year! 😘😘happy holidays everyone! Hope spirits are bright!! 🎄”
Photo: @hilaryduff via InstagramLooks like Macy’s was a popular stop for celebrity Santa photos this year. Alec and Hilaria Baldwin took their three kiddies, Rafael, 1, Carmen, 3, and Leonardo, three months, to see Santa—all of their reactions very different. “🎅🏽 So nice to meet you Santa!! Carmen was SO excited💃🏼, Rafa…will hopefully be excited next year😂….and Leo in his happy, baby, chubby lala land 😍 @macys“
Photo: @hilariabaldwin via InstagramFormer Bachelor star, Sean Lowe, and his wife, Catherine Giudici-Lowe, welcomed their son, Samuel, five months ago. Sam took his first “Santa and Me” photo this year, which seems to have been a huge success. Just look at that precious smile! Giudici-Lowe captioned it, “👶🏼❤️🎅 @northparkcenter“, and we can definitely see the love Sam has for the man in red.
Photo: @catherinegiudici via InstagramCanadian TV personality, Jillian Harris, posted this shot of her too-cute family with the Big Man. Jillian’s partner, Justin Pasutto, is sweetly holding their four-month-old son Leo’s hand, while their dog, Nacho Cilantro, looks like he’s dreaming of what Santa might bring him this year—please let it be a bone!
Glee star, Naya Rivera, shared this funny photo of her one-year-old son, Josey. The caption “That’s my boy! Merry Christmas! #prayerhands #iknowigaveyoumylistbutwhoareyouREALLY #noactualtears #lovehim” says it all.
Photo: @nayarivera via InstagramActress Tori Spelling and her husband, Dean McDermott, have a big, delightful family of kids. Liam, 9, Finn, 4, Stella, 8, and Hattie, 5, all had smiles for Santa. Tori shared another super sweet photo of her kids snuggling with Santa, captioned “For the last 9 years we have come to @thegrovela to see “Our” Santa. He’s watched all our babes grow up. This year we took a candid photo and this picture might make my heart ❤️ melt more than any pic ever. These moments are so precious. I will always cherish our family traditions. #familymoment #happyholidays2016” How sweet! Hopefully St. Nick will have room on his lap for one more next year—Tori and Dean are expecting baby #5 in 2017!
Photos: @torispelling via InstagramAshlee Holmes (daughter of Real Housewives of New Jersey star, Jacqueline Laurita) and fiancé Pete Malleo, welcomed their baby boy into the world this past August. She shared this sweet post of Cameron’s first photo with Santa, saying “Cam lookin like Santa just stole his girl… ✌🏼️🎅🏼 | (Side note: He was a great Santa)” Just look at that face and adorable “My 1st Christmas” onesie!
Photo: @ashleenicholemua via InstagramCanadian Arrow star, Stephen Amell and his wife Cassandra, took their three-year-old daughter, Mavi, to see Santa. They got a 2-for-1 deal because even Mrs. Claus made an appearance!
Photos: @stephenamell via InstagramSinger Jessie James Decker and NFL star, Eric Decker, have an adorb little family. Jessie posted this awesome #ThrowbackThursday shot of daughter Vivianne, 2, and one-year-old son, Eric the II, last year. While Viv doesn’t look too happy, Eric seems to be wondering what the fuss is all about—hilarious! Along with her post, she said, “#TBT to this Merry little Christmas! Bubby’s first Santa meeting and Vivi clearly not a Santa fan quite yet! Would love to see all of ya’lls Santa photos!” This may not have been Vivianne’s favourite moment, but it’s definitely a memorable one.
“First Santa pic of the season with my favorite babes (and directors) @mariannapalka @kyle_newman #jamesknight 🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲” posted 37-year-old actress, Jaime King. In the picture is hubby Kyle Newman, friend Marianna Palka and their precious three-year-old son, James Knight. But where’s their one-year-old, Leo Thames? We’re hoping that by “first Santa pic of the season,” she means there’s another one of their cute family coming soon!
Photo: @jaime_king via InstagramSongstress Mariah Carey took her five-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe (with ex-husband Nick Cannon) to her Beacon Theatre holiday show in New York City. The man in the red suit made an appearance on stage and someone snapped this excellent shot of the excited kids and their mama. Also in attendance were Beyoncé and her daughter, Blue Ivy.
Photo: @mariahcarey via InstagramPets are basically like kids, right? Although we’re sad that Jenna Dewan didn’t share photos of her daughter Everly, 3, with Santa, this shot of her and Channing Tatum’s two dogs and fish makes up for it. She wrote, “Lulu, Meeka and Swaggy P getting in the holiday spirit 🐶🐶🐠🎄🐾😂” Maybe she’ll share a group shot—with Channing, of course—next time?
Photo: @jennaldewan via InstagramThe Hills reality TV star, Audrina Patridge, posted this darling photo of her six-month-old daughter’s first encounter with Santa, which seemed to be a happy one. Audrina captioned the photo, “Kirra met Santa today!! #successful” If only all Santa visits were this pleasant.
Photo: @audrinapatridge via InstagramNicole “Snooki” Polizzi (of Jersey Shore fame) and hubby Jionni LaValle seem to have invited St. Nick over at their home this year. While Lorenzo, 4, looks like he’s enjoying the quality time with Santa, his sister Giovanna, 2, doesn’t look too thrilled. Snooks shared the photo with the caption, “‘Sissy stop embarrassing me in front of the big man. 🎅🏽’”
Jenni “JWoww” Farley (also of Jersey Shore fame) took this picture of her kids, Greyson, 7 months, and Meilani, 2, with Santa Claus. Both seem indifferent to the fact that they’re on Santa’s lap. Maybe JWoww can share her secret with her best pal, Snooki, on how she kept the kids so calm. She captioned the photo, “Grey is absolutely clueless 😂😂😂 meilani is working It 👌🏼💅🏼💅🏼💅🏼”
Photo: @jwoww via InstagramCougar Town actress Busy Philipps, 37, took her two daughters to pose with Santa, but they didn’t seem too thrilled about being in his magical presence. She posted this photo with the caption, “Guys! We (basically) did it!” At least Busy looks happy!
Photo: @busyphilipps via InstagramAngela White—better known as Blac Chyna—took her son (from her previous relationship with ex-boyfriend, Tyga) to cozy up to the Big Man in red. Chyna recently had a baby girl, Dream, with her fianceé Rob Kardashian. We’re sad to see she didn’t make an appearance in this adorable shot. The caption read, “@Kingy and I have been Nice all year not Naughty at all! 😊”
Photo: @blacchyna via InstagramWithout a Trace actress, Roselyn Sanchez, and her husband, Eric Winter, took a family Christmas photo with their almost-five-year-old daughter, Sebella. She captioned the photo, “We ❤️ this time of year!!! Celebrando en familia!#americanachristmas @americanabrand.” The three of them, including Santa, were all smiles for their photo—hello, Christmas card.
Photo: @roselyn_sanchez via InstagramRemember Sabrina the Teenage Witch star Melissa Joan Hart? Well, she’s married to Mark Wilkerson (no, not Harvey), and they have these three adorable boys, Mason, 10, Braydon, 8, and Tucker, 4. What’s even cuter is that they all still believe in Santa—the 40-year-old actress shared this photo with the caption, “Best smiles ever…. and they all still believe! #bestillmyheart 🎅🏽🎄”
TV personality, Maria Sansone, Instagrammed this photo of her three-year-old daughter, Grace, having an in-depth conversation with Mr. Claus. The caption read, “Grace is taking care of business with the big guy! 🎅🏻#SantasSecretWorkshop #SSW16 🎄#NiceList #TisTheSeason” Too cute!
Photo: @mariasansone via InstagramDoes this Santa look familiar? Looks like Beverley Mitchell and the rest of the Cameron family went to the same Santa’s Secret Workshop as Maria Sansone. The former 7th Heaven actress and her husband, Michael Cameron, took a Santa family photo with their two kids, Kenzie, 3, and Hutton, 1. “Another amazing Santa’s Secret Workshop #ssw16benefiting @lafamilyhousing with our friends @thebillhorn @scoutmasterson@marquecomm and #Santa of course!” wrote the 35-year-old actress.
