A Special Event in Denver
Jessica Biel made a rare public appearance alongside her two sons, Silas (9) and Phineas (4), as well as her niece, Zaya (5), at a charity fashion show hosted by the Global Down Syndrome Foundation in Denver. The event was not just a celebration of fashion but also a meaningful initiative aimed at raising awareness about Down syndrome.
Jessica Biel Shines on the Runway with Her Children
On Saturday, the 42-year-old actress left a lasting impression as she graced the runway with her children and niece. Leading the way was Zaya, who has Down syndrome and was honored as a global ambassador at the event—a role that filled the family with pride. Jessica wore a sleek black jumpsuit adorned with feather embellishments on the chest and shoulders. Her short blonde hair and minimal makeup added an elegant and timeless touch to her look. Silas complemented his mother’s style with khaki pants, a white button-up shirt, and a dark green blazer. While Phineas’s outfit wasn’t detailed, his participation brought joy and warmth to the event.
Jessica Biel’s Reflections
After the show, Jessica shared a series of photos on social media, including a family picture with Zaya’s parents—her brother Justin Biel and his wife, Rose Biel. She captioned the post: “Last night was truly a special evening at the #BeBeautifulBeYourself fashion show. Walking the runway with my amazing niece @lovelyzayab was an unforgettable honor.” She also expressed her gratitude to the foundation for organizing such a meaningful event.
Justin Timberlake’s Absence
Jessica’s husband, Justin Timberlake, 43, was unable to attend the event as he was in the midst of a global tour. Despite his absence, his love and support were evident through Jessica and their children’s presence. Jessica and Justin, who have been married since 2012, are known for keeping their family life private. In an interview with Kelly Ripa, Jessica shared their commitment to maintaining normalcy for their children. “We don’t want to expose them in any way until they are capable of making that choice for themselves,” she said.
A Family Decision to Protect Privacy
Jessica emphasized that their decision to keep their children out of the public eye is a personal choice. “I don’t want [them being exposed] to be because of me,” she explained. “It’s just what we’ve decided as a family.” While acknowledging that their approach might not be perfect, Jessica affirmed it as their way of safeguarding their children’s privacy.
The charity fashion show was more than a chance for Jessica Biel and her children to showcase their style—it was a meaningful opportunity to advocate for Down syndrome awareness. Their participation highlighted the importance of family values and the significance of protecting their children’s privacy while embracing moments that matter.
