While the retro bubble-skirt silhouette is shaping up to be one of the biggest trends of the season, Watts is proof that the most stylish interpretations aren’t your mothers’ bubble skirts and instead feature decidedly modern twists.

Watts and Schreiber were together for 11 years before they went their separate ways in 2016. However, the former couple have been open about their commitment to co-parenting and putting their children first. “We’re doing things very differently. I’m pretty proud of us, corny as that may sound,” Watts told reporters in 2019.

In a 2019 interview with Net-a-Porter, Watts revealed that Sasha and her youngest child, Kai, 15, have taken an interest in acting and previously attended a performance arts summer camp together. “It seems they’ve gotten the bug,” she said at the time.
