In a recent interview, Alicia Silverstone said that she has been having baths with her nine-year-old son while in lockdown amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Clueless actor made the comments during a recent interview with The New York Times, where she discussed what life has been like in quarantine.
Detailing that she has spent the past few months cooking and taking long walks, she also said that she has been "finding activities" to do with her son, Bear Blu, who she shares with her ex-husband, Christopher Jarecki, whom she divorced back in 2018 after nearly 13 years of marriage.
"My son and I take baths together, and when he’s not with me, I take a bath and that really feels nourishing and comforting," she told the publication.
Turning to her role in Clueless, she said: "It’s generational. The people that were watching it when it came out have shared it with their children, and so it just keeps going and keeps living."
"I don’t know why that happens to some movies and others it doesn’t, but I’m so grateful to be a part of it," she added.
In 2018, Silverstone courted controversy after telling presenter, Stephen Colbert, that Bear Blu "kept trying to French-kiss me" after she let him watch her 1995 box office hit, Clueless.
"He loved [Clueless], but the one thing he took away from it, aside from all the things I was worried about, was he kept trying to French-kiss me afterward," she told Colbert.
Back in 2012, Silverstone also faced criticism after announcing that she used an unusual method to feed Bear, who was a baby at the time. She practiced the method of re-feeding, meaning that she chewed food in her own mouth before giving it to him to eat.
"People have been feeding their kids that way for thousands for years. It's a weaning process," she said in her defense, per the Daily Mail. "Honestly, when I posted the video I was not thinking, so maybe I was like Cher! I think it's adorable and it makes me laugh every time he does it."
