THE BIG KIDS’ FILE: CLAUDIA ROSE STUNS AT PREMIERE
Claudia Rose accompanied her mom Michelle Pfeiffer and dad David E. Kelley to the premiere Of Dark Shadows in Los Angeles Tuesday night.
Claudia Rose Kelley, whom Michelle adopted as a single woman in 1993, is in her first year of college.
“People make a lot of jokes about the empty nest,” Pfeiffer tells Parade magazine. “Let me tell you, it is no laughing matter. It is really hard. Claudia’s in her first year of college. She’s doing great. My son is applying to colleges now. I remember reading an interview with Dustin Hoffman; his first child had just gone off to college, and he said, “Nobody talks about their [empty] room.” I feel like I’m going to cry just thinking about it.”
She adds, “Being a parent is the hardest thing in the world. Sometimes I feel like I have to go back to work to get some rest, and we work a minimum 12-hour day making a movie! None of that is nearly as exhausting as parenthood—the psychological toll it takes on you because these lives are in your hands. I take it very seriously. Just when you think you’ve got your kids figured out, they change on you. For somebody who’s controlling, you can’t control it. Of course, I don’t think I’m controlling, but that’s what I’ve been told!”
Pfeiffer and Kelley also have a biological son named John Henry Kelley,17.

I guess bck is still goin by the one drop rule ehh.
Beautiful young lady, good luck to her in college
Beautiful girl, but her hair looks bad from the straightening process.
It’s such a rare occasion seeing pics of Claudia…but she has grown into a beautiful young woman.
Claudia looks more mixed than black, but she’s still black in my book. I forgot MP had adopted her.
It makes no difference when she goes into the world.
I already know this & I’m sure she does as well.
She’s absolutely gorgeous!
See BCK commenter…White celebrities have been adopting black babies for YEARS…Steven Spielberg even has a black son.
And Spielberg has a black albino looking daughter.
Oh, yes…I forgot about her
I know she’s super cute too
Tom Cruise too
Except…… Tom’s son is his BIOLOGICAL son. He’s is NOT adopted!
I’m going to need you to do your research. What black woman did Cruise have a baby with?!!!
Claudia is stunning. Her main beauty competition would be Mavis Spencer (Alfre’s equaly stunning daughter).
Well, that’s an obvious one, so I didn’t mention it.
She’s a beautiful girl! I love Michelle Pfeiffer she’s such a good actress!
Cutie pie and tall!!
She’s a beauty! She looks a little like Alicia Keys
This kid is gorgeous.
