Fans couldn’t help but notice how much Bingham resembles the late, great River Phoenix. It’s like stepping back in time, isn’t it? Let’s dive into the story and see what’s making everyone so excited.

Another commenter chimed in, “Looks just like River Phoenix when he was young,” while someone else joked, “Stop, I thought this was young River Phoenix!” It’s clear that Bingham, who’s now 12, is growing up to be a real heartthrob just like River.
Who Was River Phoenix?
River Phoenix was the older brother of Joaquin Phoenix and an incredibly talented actor and musician. Some of his most iconic roles include Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Running on Empty, and My Own Private Idaho. Tragically, he passed away at the age of 23 due to a drug overdose outside the Viper Room nightclub in Hollywood. His legacy lives on through his work and the impact he had on the film industry.
Kate’s Growing Family
In addition to Bingham, whom she shares with her ex-fiancé Matt Bellamy, Kate is also a proud mom to her eldest son Ryder, with ex-husband Chris Robinson, and her daughter Rani, with her now-fiancé Danny Fujikawa. It’s a beautiful family dynamic, and Kate has always been open about her experiences as a mom.
Bingham’s Unique Interests
Kate revealed earlier this year that Bingham has a unique passion for the stock market. She told People on June 6, “He really is into the stock market and has been for years. And so he trades his own stocks. He reads at 12, he reads the news about where things are.” It’s impressive to see how knowledgeable and mature Bingham is for his age. “He knows the class of each stock and each bond and all this stuff. It’s crazy. So he’ll be very interesting to watch grow up,” Kate added.
A Special Bond with Ryder
Kate also shared insights into her relationship with her eldest son, Ryder, who’s now 20. She explained that their bond is unique because she was only 23 when she had him. “But because I guess I was young when I had him, it’s a different relationship than with my other kids. So, he’s seen me through all of my good times, my bad times, this boyfriend, not that boyfriend,” she said. It’s clear that their connection runs deep, and Ryder has been a constant presence in her life.
“He’s seen me through it all. And that’s very different because I never had an adult life really without him,” Kate reflected. “So it’s a little, I think more protective, meaning I think he’s very protective of me. And then I think my other kids will be, because we’ve been through so much together.”

Coparenting Success
Kate has spoken openly about her coparenting relationships with the fathers of her children. “The unit that I’ve created with three children and three different fathers is a seriously strong unit—and it’s ours,” she told The Skimm on May 9. She credits her friendships with her exes for the success of their coparenting. “We actually don’t have many tough coparenting moments because my friendships with my exes are quite solid and we’ve managed to keep focused on the love we have for our child. And by now we’ve gotten quite good at coparenting. Love and what’s best for the child must always come first and somehow we’ve managed to keep that at the forefront, even when there are disagreements. And then, of course, Mom is always right,” she joked.
