Emily Ratajkowski was spotted enjoying a rare outing with her father, John David Ratajkowski, on a Wednesday morning in New York City. The 32-year-old model/actress and her father took a leisurely stroll near her upscale West Village apartment. Emily exuded style in a white crop top, beige cords, and a fashionable utility jacket as she sipped on an iced coffee. She accessorized with a brown leather Miu Miu purse slung over her shoulder and chatted with her father, showcasing her natural beauty with light makeup and brown designer sunglasses. 

John, a California-based professional artist renowned for his sculptures and paintings displayed in numerous galleries across the United States and Europe, accompanied Emily. He stood tall in blue jeans, flip-flop sandals, and a cozy blue pullover, towering over his 5 foot 7 inch daughter. Missing from the outing were Emily’s three-year-old son Sylvester and her mother Kathleen Balgley. Kathleen, originally from Poland, is a tenured college professor who previously taught at UCLA and UCSD and is a published author. 

Emily, their only child, was born in London but raised in Encinitas, a coastal city near San Diego, California. She pursued modeling from a young age, with the full support of her parents, and gained fамe as the video in Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” music video in 2013. Since then, Emily has fronted major fashion campaigns for brands like Versace and Victoria’s ꜱеϲгеt, expanded into acting, and even published a memoir in 2021. In a 2023 interview with Cultured, both Emily and John reflected on her upbringing and her natural inclination toward the arts.
