But there's one side of her that up-and-coming fashion star Gracie Phillips has always kept hidden: her family background. Now, in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, the 20-year-old LA-based catwalk sensation has spoken for the first time about her actor father Lou Diamond Phillips, 56. Phillips, whose film and TV credits include La Bamba, Young Guns, Miami Vice and The 33, has three more daughters: Gracie's twin Isabella, Lilli, 18, and Indigo, 11. But while he admits to chatting about Gracie's achievements 'with anyone who asks', his 20-year-old daughter, whose mother is former Penthouse model Kelly Phillips, has long been more hesitant. +12 Model Gracie Phillips, 20, exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com that her father is La Bamba actor Lou Diamond Phillips.

Pictured: The father and daughter in December 1999 'When I started, I really just wanted to try and do it by myself and say yes, I did it all by myself,' Gracie explained. 'At the time, it was kind of in the height of Hollywood royalty where everyone was kind of doing things and you'd find out this is the child of so-and-so. 'As I was looking on social media, I saw positives but I also saw the negatives – people bashing the kids of people who were in the industry, saying they're only doing this because of this. 'When I started, I never wanted anyone to say to me, she did this job because of her dad, because of her last name, because of who she is.' Phillips added: 'I'm incredibly proud of Grace and the fact that she wanted to earn this, she wanted to make her own way - I was supportive of that from the beginning. 'She's been booking jobs, she's been receiving praise and getting incredibly good feedback based on her own merit, without getting any qualifications. 'It's not that I don't want her to say she's my progeny but at the same time, there's no doubt it's very, very rewarding and I'm very, very pleased that she can take all the credit for this herself as she should. 'She's the one who's built her own boat in this respect.' Like her contemporaries Kaia Gerber, Brooklyn Beckham and Gigi Hadid, Grace's childhood was one of film sets, travel and paparazzi eager to snatch a photo of her famous parents.
