Read our privacy policy Christina Ricci has said that her eight-year-old son Freddie “won’t be able to avoid” growing up to be a feminist. Ricci, 42, said that as her son watches her work, she thinks he will “see women in a much more layered, complicated way, just by having grown up watching his mum do all this stuff”. He’ll correct me: ‘Women are not objects.’” The Addams Family star gave birth to Freddie in 2014 and shares him with her former husband James Heerdegen, who she split from in 2020. Elsewhere in the interview, Ricci condemned women who call other women the word “b****” and said she believed there is still “internalised misogyny” to deal with.
