Hilary Duff Took Her Oldest Son Luca on a Night Out to See “Back to the Future: The Musical”

We’ve all been fans of Hilary Duff ever since her “Lizzie McGuire” days in the early 2000s. It’s hard to believe she’s gone from playing a 13-year-old in the classic Disney Channel show to playing a soon-to-be mom of one in the Hulu “How I Met Your Mother” spinoff, “How I Met Your Father” – all in the span of 20 years. In that time, she also became a mom of three children in real life, and we love following along with her real-life children just as much as we like to theorize about who her her onscreen son’s father is in “HIMYF.”

Duff had her first child, a son named Luca Cruz Comrie, with first husband, Mike Comrie, in 2012 when she was 24 years old, which some thought was young. Still, Duff says she always knew she was ready to be a mom. “I think that I was just really ready,” she told her “How I Met Your Father” costar Josh Peck in a March episode of the “Good Guys” podcast (via People), continuing, “I just decided after . . . my last tour, I was like, I need a serious break, and I need to lock myself in my house and like figure out how to take care of myself, feed myself, what I like, what I don’t like.” She added, “Then I met my first husband, [Mike], and like two years later, maybe three years later, I just felt really ready to open that chapter of my life.”

Duff and Comrie amicably divorced in 2016, and while Duff admits raising a son amid her divorce and the growing divide between her and her young friends who were not yet having children was challenging, she said, “I wouldn’t change it at all. And now my son, he’s turning 11 in March.” He’s now old enough to enjoy things like musical theater, as Duff brought him to see “Back to the Future: The Musical” in London on March 27.

Duff has also welcomed two more children, Banks Violet and Mae James Blair, with her now-husband Matthew Koma, who she married in 2019.
