Overview
- Vogue published a joint September cover and profile of Kaia Gerber and Homer Gere on Aug. 11 as part of promotion for Ryan Murphy’s series The Shards.
- Kaia told Vogue that she has "had disordered eating in my life" and described how repeated public comments about her body worsened her struggles.
- When they first met before filming, Homer said he asked whether they should acknowledge that their parents were once married and Kaia replied, "Yeah. Cool."
- The Shards, adapted from Bret Easton Ellis’s novel, premiered on FX and Hulu on Aug. 5 and the Vogue package extends the show’s publicity cycle.
- Gerber openly owns the "nepo baby" label and warned Gere that audiences will judge him for his family ties, a dynamic that is likely to shape perceptions of Homer’s early career and keep the debate about privilege and mental health in the public eye.
