ACTRESS KARYN PARSONS(“HILLARY BANKS”) AND KIDS

kparson

Celebrity mom Karyn Parsons says she does not miss playing the self-indulgent diva Hilary Banks on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. It could be that she’s too busy juggling play dates in the park for daughter Lana, 4, and son Nico, 10 months, to reminisce about her narcissistic television character.

In addition to parenting, these days, Parsons is thinking about education. In fact, while she was filming The Fresh Prince, her mother would call her with Black history stories. She felt that some of the stories would be well-suited for a children’s book and began working on a compilation. In 2003 Parsons married Alexander Rockwell and started a family. ‘I was thinking about my own responsibilities as a parent that were coming up, and teaching my daughter about her heritage.’ So, in 2004 Parsons started Sweet Blackberry, a production company based in New York, where she and her family live.

She’s written and produced two animated films that are available on DVD.She says that the stories are meant to be a fun way to teach children about their history, ‘especially about Black Americans who we don’t hear about so much. If young people get interested early, it’s something that will stay with them for a lifetime.

    Some of you that have commented are so rude and sound quite ignorant. People have already mentioned the difference between an albino and other races. The little girl can not be albino because she has hair colour (blonde) and eye colour as well as redness in her lips. An albino would not be able to have this. They have no colour at all, no melanin so no chance of having any bit of colour on their skin at all.
    Also she was married to Randy Brooks and he’s black, so all this useless talk about her not finding a “brotha” is stupid.

    • keisha d. April 22, 2011 at 7:08 pm

      i agree,i think most of the people on here are just jealous of her kids because their mixed but could pass for white.get over it people damn!

  • The Albino Spouse January 28, 2010 at 8:52 pm

    Um Lana is definately Albino, I am a sociology major and spend hours studying features of all people. My wife is African American Albino,which is possbile(Refering to the folks who only think there are white Albinos;there are also Asian and Latino but the most occurences are actually from African Descent)
    So i can say with much conviction that Lana is Albino.

    • EVELINA RAE April 14, 2010 at 10:51 am

      LANA DOESN’T REALLY LOOK ALBINO SHE JUST HAS BLONDE HAIR. I JUST SAW A MORE RECENT PICTURE OF HER AND SHE HAS A LITTLE MORE COLOUR IN HER SKIN AND IN HER HAIR. REMEMBER SHE IS ONLY A QUARTER BLACK. I THINK PEOPLE EXPECT HER TO LOOK DIFFERENT BECAUSE HER BROTHER HAS MORE COLOUR IN HIS HAIR AND FACE JUST LIKE NAHLA (HALLE & GABRIEL’S DAUGHTER) WHOM IS ALSO ONLY A QUARTER BLACK.

      THE SITE FEATURED THE WHOLE ROCKWELL FAMILY…ALEX, KARYN, LANA AND NICO ALL GROWN UP.

    • keisha d. April 22, 2011 at 7:12 pm

      definatly not albino! she’s 75% white,have you seen victoria rowell’s daugther maya? who looks whiter than this girl and she ain’t albino just qaudroon.

  • ponticac January 5, 2010 at 5:57 pm

    I also believe karyn’s daughter may be albino. Therefore, she aint gon change in her appearance where hue is concerned.

  • ponticac January 5, 2010 at 5:55 pm

    A brotha is too selfish to be with a sista, most of them are anyway. They are looking for someone to give them something, and just that . They aint thinking about giving back. Who wants someone like that anyway. So good they are not interested in a sista. Sistas should be glad if a brotha is not interested in them. Less trouble they have to deal with. Can do bad by yourself.

  • Trinbago Mel December 28, 2009 at 5:55 pm

    The child is not albino! She’s jus mixed race. I com from a country of various mixtures of races(Trinidad and Tobago) and that child may very well grow up with a darker shade than that. Her son is cuter though. Someone mentioned that she may b 2 stuck up 2 want 2 b wit a “brother” – mayb a lil – but actually, probably no “brother” was accessible 2 her cuz he’s not interested in a “sista”! Mel. A.

  • AQUA December 17, 2009 at 10:33 pm

    HER DAUGHTER LOOKS NOTHING LIKE HER NO COLOR OF BLACK KICKED IN HER DAUGHTER THE SON IS CUTE

    • prettysanchez September 11, 2010 at 7:03 pm

      I agree that girl looks nothing like her mother… the son is cute though..

  • SHILOHDREAM October 20, 2009 at 8:23 pm

    no pun attended, I love Karyn P and think her children are adorable but one questions: 1) is her daughter Albino or mixed?

    • Teri October 20, 2009 at 9:32 pm

      Mixed. Karyn is biracial and her children are by a white man.

  • shakira August 24, 2009 at 6:00 pm

    I wonder why a white man she’s beautiful and talk about her history but those children are cute but blue and green lines don’t mix

  • luvvieboo August 8, 2009 at 4:37 pm

    Kids look just like her, Karyn have neva been cute to me, but I sho luvvvvvved me some Hillary on “Fresh Prince”.

  • Kayce July 24, 2009 at 6:03 pm

    her daughter doesn’t look albino. her father is white and Karyn herself is half white. but her and her children are beautiful. (:

  • Judd July 23, 2009 at 12:48 pm

    Wow her daughter is a spitting image of her! Her son is cute too.. Karen looks great ;-)

  • Jasmine June 13, 2009 at 10:00 pm

    LOL. Her daughter has her eyes and you can tell that the kids have white in them (not albinos..by now ppl don’t know the difference?!) and she is mix so in many cases when that happens the kids turn out close to this :) . I love/d that show! and her also! :D

  • sepsep May 30, 2009 at 1:20 am

    She is married to Jennifer Beals EX Husband

  • NavyMom May 26, 2009 at 10:46 pm

    Her daughter looks JUST like her. I don’t think she is albino at all. Being that she is 75% white she appears to have taken all of those genes. Cute kids.

    • tj June 28, 2010 at 8:24 pm

      Yes, you’re right the daughter doesn’t look like her much.

  • Daveboy May 20, 2009 at 4:52 pm

    I shag her

  • vale May 20, 2009 at 3:56 pm

    her daughter looks nothing like her

  • MrsUmar May 12, 2009 at 10:19 pm

    God bless you Karyn and your beautiful family.

  • Kerra April 12, 2009 at 5:04 pm

    Her daughter looks albino. Kinda michael Jackson skin complexion

    pretty scary.I can only guess her children are by a white man. I

    just realized her kids are by Jennifer Beal’s ex. Wow that guy sure

    has it for women of biracial background.

  • simms March 11, 2009 at 1:48 am

    @savannah -people with albinism have red eyes, if her father is white then she prob only recived white genes from both sides – it is possible and has happened with a set of twins in the UK.

    • Toya June 14, 2009 at 7:18 pm

      Not all albinos have red eyes. A girl I know has blue eyes.

  • Mr. Foot February 25, 2009 at 3:25 pm

    I won’t hit it. It was already hit too much.

  • Dayum February 13, 2009 at 11:59 am

    She is still so damn hot. I’d hit it.

  • charlie January 19, 2009 at 8:33 pm

    love U, Good Luck on your productions,videos what ever U do fine.
    lovely kids of your.

  • savannarh January 14, 2009 at 9:32 am

    Is her little girl an albino, because she looks like one.

    • loi wade June 7, 2010 at 5:18 pm

      No Just white like her dad. Some black women have biracial children that there is no way you could tell they were half black.

  • Savannah January 14, 2009 at 8:25 am

    Karyn’s little boy is adorable.

  • Christopher Peoples December 31, 2008 at 3:28 pm

    I’ve watched Fresh Prince for quite a while and found you, Ms. Parsons, very attractive and enjoyed your performance in other movies such as Major Payne and The Ladies Man as well. Your children are beautiful and are a great illustration of the beauty of their mother.

  • Carlita L. Smith October 28, 2008 at 12:45 am

    I watch the fresh prince all the time and I never get tired of Hillary she was so funny and excellent in that role.

  • Steve Jacobs October 28, 2008 at 12:36 am

    Hey Karen,

    You are truly talented, and i would love to meet you this time.
    I saw you a few years back, but i did not think i could be you,
    until comming across this page. I’m an animation producer, and
    i will definitely try to reach out.

    Blessings…………Steve
