Clementine Jane Hawke: Everything You Need to Know About Ethan Hawke's Daughter

Despite being the daughter of renowned actor Ethan Hawke, Clementine Jane Hawke’s life remains mysterious. Here’s what we know about her.

Aside from the fact that her dad is famous and very rich, the curiosity about Clementine Jane Hawke’s life can be traced back to her birth circumstances. Clementine’s father, Ethan Hawke, was previously married to actress Uma Thurman. They had two children together, but their union ended in 2003.

Their divorce was allegedly based on Ethan’s infidelity. Ethan got into a relationship with Ryan Shawhughes (Hawke), a nanny for his children with Thurman. Speculation arose among many that an illicit affair had transpired between Ethan and Ryan (Clemetine’s mom) while he was still married to Thurman. Nevertheless, Ethan and Ryan have vehemently denied these conjectures numerous times.

In an interview, Ryan openly expressed that her love for Ethan blossomed long after the family had employed her. Additionally, Ethan emphasized that exclusive sexual fidelity cannot be regarded as the sole foundation for sustaining a relationship. He delved into the concept of human nature and its historical inclination towards non-monogamy.

Here’s everything about Clementine and her family.

Clementine Jane Hawke’s Parents Went Against Public Opinion and Tied the Knot

In June 2008, Ethan and Ryan, who was eight months pregnant with their first daughter, Clementine, tied the knot. This union faced a barrage of criticism and backlash from the public then. Ryan was labeled as a home wrecker and subjected to online trolling. The situation appeared grim. 

Following their marriage, Ryan experienced a significant transformation in her professional life. Suddenly thrust into the spotlight as a celebrity spouse, she secured notable acting roles and even gained opportunities to produce movies directed by her husband.

Ethan and Ryan intentionally keep their marriage away from prying public eyes, which resulted in little details regarding their daughter, Clementine Jane Hawke.

Clementine Jane Hawke is Ethan Hawke’s daughter. Her life has been very private right from the start. Her father ensures she is kept far away from the limelight. Judging from how famous he is, we believe he chose to keep Clementine away from the public eye because he knows what being exposed to fame can do to the life of kids.

However, we know that Clementine Jane Hawke was born in New York City on July 18, 2008. Her parents were thrilled about her birth and announced the upcoming arrival of their first child in January of that year. Clementine Jane Hawke has a younger sister named Indiana Hawke, born on July 23, 2011.

Clementine’s dad was born on November 6, 1970, in Austin, Texas, to Leslie (née Green), a philanthropist, and James Hawke, an actuary in the insurance industry. Ethan is an American actor, author, and film director. He holds numerous nominations, including four Academy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and a Tony Award.

Ethan has showcased his directorial skills in three feature films, three off-broadway plays, and a documentary. He has also delivered remarkable theatrical performances in notable works such as “The Seagull,” “The Coast of Utopia,” and “A Lie of the Mind,” to name just a few.

Furthermore, he has exhibited his literary talents by penning three novels and one graphic novel. His cinematic journey began with “Explorers” (1985), but his breakthrough performance in “Dead Poets Society” propelled him into the limelight. 

Ethan was nominated for Academy Award in Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor for the 2004 romantic drama film “Before Sunset.” 

Clementine’s Mum Is Also Into Showbiz

Clementine’s mum, currently in her late 30s, graduated from Columbia University and began working as a nanny in college. Ryan Shawhughes is an accomplished American film producer, director, and screenwriter. She has worked on movies such as “The Babysitters” (2007), “Blue Valentine” (2010), and “Afternoon Delight” (2013).

Additionally, she possesses a ballet background, having pursued studies at the School of American Ballet. Ryan has also appeared in several of Hawke’s films, including “Taking Lives” (2004) and “Before Midnight” (2013).

Clementine Has Two Half Siblings

Maya and Levon are Clementine’s half-siblings from her father’s marriage to Uma. Just like their parents, both have chosen a path in showbiz. Born on July 8, 1998, Maya Hawke started as a model, working with renowned names such as Vogue, Calvin Klein, and All Saints. However, her on-screen debut occurred in 2017 when she portrayed Jo in the BBC adaptation of “Little Women.”

Her remarkable portrayal of Robin, a Scoops Ahoy employee at the mall, in the third season of “Stranger Things” catapulted her career. Following this, Maya had a minor role in Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” genuinely embracing her parent’s footsteps. Apart from her acting pursuits, Maya has also ventured into singing, releasing two singles in 2019 and her debut album, Blush, in 2020.

Levon Hawke, on the other hand, was born in 2002. He joined the cast of “Stranger Things” for its fourth season. There were speculations about his character’s dynamic with his sister at that time due to behind-the-scenes photos showing him in punk rock attire.

Additionally, Levon shares his mother’s interest in fashion, notably accompanying her to Prada’s resort shows in New York City in 2018 and 2019 and the 2020 Dior couture show in Paris. Seeing that her two siblings followed their parent’s footsteps into showbiz, there’s a likelihood that Clementine would do the same when she is older.

Vivian Falcone is another celebrity child who has followed in her parent’s footsteps. Like her mother, Melissa McCarthy, she is a talented teen actress making waves in Hollywood.
