Rebel Wilson Says Her Daughter Royce Inspires Her To Eat Better

Rebel Wilson’s daughter, Royce, has made a significant mark on the actor’s health.

Speaking with TODAY.com in studio on June 16, Wilson, 45, credited 2-year-old Royce with allowing her and her wife, Ramona Agruma, to maintain healthy eating habits.

“I go on and off the rails with healthy eating and stuff. But what’s really good is that with her, we’re so conscious, my wife and I, about feeding her healthy, nutritious meals,” Wilson says. “Which makes me remind myself again about being healthy.”

Wilson explains that while she herself would “often eat a lot of junk food,” parents would “never deliberately feed your child rubbish.” And avoiding feeding her child “rubbish” is a good way to keep her own health goals on track.

“It’s a nice reminder for yourself to try to be like, ‘Well, I’d never give that to my daughter for dinner,’ right? Just cookies for dinner or something like that — so why would I be doing that for myself?” she says.

In another lesson from her daughter, Wilson says Royce has taught her “how to be present,” even though her mind is normally racing around work, projects and everyday life.

“I was sitting down with her and I was playing with this kind of sand — it’s like magnetic sand or something. I mean, just sitting there, just playing and talking to each other and just being present and not worrying about anything else,” she recalls.

As she enjoys “the simple pleasures of just being present with your child,” Wilson says being a mom and newly married has shifted her priorities.

“It just really changed my life. I mean, I don’t have much of a social life,” she says, laughing. “My spare time goes to my wife and daughter, and so I’m not gallivanting around like I used to be as a single lady, but it’s just so fun.”

Wilson continued, “I feel so settled and nice and like everything’s going great. And I think just, women in their 40s anyway, you just find a nice groove and a nice place of comfortability where you are, which is great.”

The “Bride Hard” star married Agruma in a ceremony in September 2024 in Sardinia, Italy. Wilson’s daughter, Royce, was born via surrogate on Nov. 7, 2022.
