NEED TO KNOW

• Hilary Duff is a mom to four children
• She and ex-husband Mike Comrie share a son named Luca, who was born in 2012
• Duff and husband Matthew Koma are parents to three daughters: Banks, Mae and Townes

While Hilary Duff is out on The Lucky Me Tour, her husband, Matthew Koma, and her four kids are cheering her on.

Not only have the “Mature” singer’s children been spotted in the crowds of her concerts, but during her Aug. 6 performance at Madison Square Garden, her daughters also joined her on stage for pizza, as a fan shared in a video on X.

“All of these cities have so much to offer, and I feel like there would be no other time when my kids would see the U.S. like this, so we’re just thinking of it as a big, long road trip,” Duff told PEOPLE of the tour in April. “And hopefully, they don’t get bored with seeing my show every night.”

Duff welcomed her first child, son Luca in 2012, with her then-husband Mike Comrie. Following their split, Duff began dating Koma. The pair married in 2019 and welcomed daughters Banks in October 2018, Mae in March 2021 and Townes in May 2024.

In a May 2021 interview with PEOPLE, Duff revealed that she loves the “mayhem“ of raising her kids. “I love when everyone’s full of energy and the house is buzzing. You never know what the day is going to bring or what your kid’s going to say,” she said. “We’re in the thick of it, and it feels good.”

Here’s everything to know about Hilary Duff’s kids.

Luca Cruz Comrie, 14

Duff and Comrie welcomed their son, Luca Cruz Comrie, on March 20, 2012.

“Welcome to the World Luca Cruz Comrie! Tuesday evening, we became proud parents of a healthy 7 pound 6 ounce beautiful boy,” Duff posted on X. “We are overjoyed and feel like the luckiest parents in the world. He is surrounded by so much love!!”

The Lizzie McGuire star was just 24 years old at the time. She later discussed the challenges of being a young mom during an appearance on The Motherly Podcast, admitting that the experience “was a little isolating” since none of her friends had welcomed children yet.

“I did feel like after I had him, I lost a big chunk of my identity for maybe the first year and a half,” Duff explained. “I did spin it as a positive thing because sitting in it when it was happening maybe I was a little sad about it and I didn’t feel like I had anyone to go through the experience with, but then I came out on the other side. I’m like, I’m a freaking super woman and I can do anything and I have confidence for days.”

Although Duff and Comrie split in 2016, Duff has said she is “really proud“ of their co-parenting dynamic.

“We are a unit and we’re going to be a unit for the rest of our lives,” she told PEOPLE. “We realized [as a couple] we weren’t where we used to be. But I feel so lucky this happened when Luca was young because this is his normal now.”

Duff’s husband Koma has also taken on a role in Luca’s life. In her 2020 cover story for PARENTS magazine, Duff revealed that Luca wrote a poem about their blended family and read it aloud at her and Koma’s wedding.

“He wrote something really beautiful,” she said. “It started off with, ‘Our family is a galaxy shooting off of the cosmos.’ He was so brave to get up and talk into the microphone.”

On Luca’s 10th birthday, Duff posted a sweet tribute to “the greatest kid around.”

“Luca Cruz what a gift you are to all that know you. I can’t imagine how it’s already been 10 years since I got to first hold you in my arms and meet your big blue eyes,” she wrote. “This time with you has been something I can’t even explain. It’s my pleasure to watch you grow. To know your heart and be loved by you. You are magic and I can’t wait to see all the cool things you do and will teach me over the next 10 years.”

A few weeks prior, the mother-son duo attended a Justin Bieber concert together. Alongside videos of the pair lip-synching the words to “Sorry” and “Baby,” Duff wrote, “The. Best. Time. @justinbieber I think this is the last year Luca will put up with this out of me so I sang reaaaaaal loud.”

Banks Violet Bair, 7

On Oct. 25, 2018, Duff and Koma welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Banks Violet Bair.

Duff posted a photo of herself and Koma cradling the newborn, captioned, “Banks Violet Bair❤️ this little bit has fully stolen our hearts! She joined our world at home on Thursday afternoon and is absolute magic.”

Despite their six-year age gap, Banks and her older brother Luca have a sweet relationship and he looks out for her.

“It’s the best,” Duff told PureWow in January 2020 of the siblings’ relationship. “It’s a chemical reaction between siblings sometimes where he knows he has to protect her.”

That same month, Duff shared a black-and-white snap of Luca giving Banks a kiss on the cheek. “I don’t know why he likes her so much … she stalks and harasses him every minute of the day,” she jokingly wrote in the caption.

Banks is also a big fan of her mom’s music. Speaking to Cosmopolitan in January 2022, Duff revealed that her then-3-year-old daughter loved to listen to her album Breathe In. Breathe Out — specifically her hit track “Sparks.”

“I can’t get away from it because someone exposed my 3-year-old to it,” Duff joked. “We get in the car, and I have to listen to my own music because my daughter’s screaming, ‘I want ‘parks, I want ‘parks.’ “

Another singer Banks likes is Harry Styles. For her 4th birthday, she received a sequined pillow with the British pop star’s face on it as a gift from her grandmother.

“My mother wins best Present!” Duff wrote alongside a photo of Banks engrossed in her gift.

Duff also took the birthday girl to one of Styles’ concerts to celebrate. Koma shared a clip of Banks that showed her in pure awe as she watched Styles perform.

“Harry 4th Birthday Banks Bair. May you always sing with the most engaged and concerned look on your face,” he wrote alongside the video. “Love you more than you’ll grow up to love Dawes.”

Mae James Bair, 5

Duff and Koma welcomed their second daughter on March 24, 2021.

Duff subtly announced the news with an Instagram photo of Banks. “I’m a big sister … marinating on how I feel about that!” Duff captioned the snap, which showed Banks in a bathtub with a thoughtful look on her face.

The couple revealed the newborn’s name, Mae James, the following day.

“Mae James Bair – We LOVE you beauty 3-24-21,” the mom wrote on Instagram alongside a black-and-white picture from her at-home water birth. The photo showed Duff holding the newborn in a tub surrounded by her kids and Koma.

Ahead of her birth, Duff spoke with PEOPLE about how much more relaxed she felt about the pregnancy compared to her other two.

“This pregnancy feels easier because there was a lot of fear with bringing a new baby home when Luca was already 6½,” she said. “There’s a security in knowing what we need with having a newborn in the house since we kind of were just there with Banks.”

Duff added, “Both kids are super excited about the new baby and that’s a comfort I didn’t have the first time around.”

In November 2022, Mae got a new haircut courtesy of her mom. Duff shared a series of adorable photos of Mae rocking her new bangs, captioned, “Today I cut Mae bangs… and it’s cuuuuute.”

In March 2024, Duff celebrated Mae’s 3rd birthday with a sweet post on Instagram.

“Loving you – is some kind of WONDERFUL Mae Mae !!! Happy 3rd Birthday angel 🐻,” the actress wrote below a video montage of the toddler. “You love jumping in puddles, ‘pantry food,’ ‘leggins wiff a dress,’ ‘smoodies,’ made up stories at night, your sis and bro, unicorns, adventures, clean hands, dancing to karma, doing things all by yourself and being fair!!”

Townes Meadow Bair, 1

Duff announced she was expecting in December 2023 when she posted her family’s Christmas card on Instagram, showcasing a picture of her cradling her growing belly.

“So much for silent nights,” the card read. “Love, the Duff-Bair-Comrie Crew.”

On the back of her card, Duff confirmed the news, writing, “Buckle up Buttercups, we’re adding one more to this crazy bunch!”

Townes was born on May 3, 2024, at home in a water birth. Duff shared the happy news a few days later on Instagram, alongside sweet black-and-white photos of the newborn.

“Townes Meadow Bair 🧸 , now we know why she made us wait so long…She was perfecting those Cheeks!” she wrote in the caption. “I Have been dreaming of holding you in my arms for months and the past 5 days of getting to know you, stare at you and smell you has been pure moments of magic.”
