A Star Is Born… On the Red Carpet! Benicio del Toro’s daughter, Delilah, stepped into the spotlight for the very first time at the SAG Actor Awards 2026, marking a significant milestone for the young teen.
At just 14 years old, Delilah, who has largely been kept away from the public eye since her birth in August 2011, accompanied her famous father to the prestigious event. She made a stunning red carpet debut, gracing the occasion in a glittering, floor-length tan gown adorned with a beautiful flower appliqué. Her hair was styled down, and she complemented her elegant look with simple earrings.
Her father, the acclaimed actor Benicio del Toro, looked dapper in a classic tuxedo, adding a touch of cool with black sunglasses. The father-daughter duo attended the event held at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles.
Del Toro was nominated for outstanding performance by a male actor in a supporting role for his work in the September 2025 film, "One Battle After Another." While he didn't take home the award that evening, with the honor going to his co-star Sean Penn, the night was clearly a special one for him and his daughter.
But here's where it gets interesting... Delilah is the daughter of Benicio del Toro and his on-again, off-again girlfriend, Kimberly Stewart, daughter of rock legend Rod Stewart. It's worth noting that during Kimberly's pregnancy, del Toro's representative clarified that they were not a couple, though he was described as a “very supportive” father-to-be.
And this is the part most people miss... Del Toro and Stewart have showcased a remarkably amicable co-parenting dynamic. In 2023, they shared a rare family photograph on Instagram while in Puerto Rico, attending a concert for Rod Stewart, who was 81 at the time. This shows a united front in raising their daughter.
As for Delilah's future, her mother, Kimberly, has shared glimpses of her daughter's acting talents over the years, posting footage of her participating in school plays. Benicio del Toro himself speculated in a 2015 interview that Delilah might become a teacher, humorously noting that she already enjoys telling him what to do!
Adding another layer to their family story, Kimberly Stewart revealed last year that Delilah was about to become a big sister. In March 2025, she announced her pregnancy with a baby boy, though further details about her growing family have not yet been shared.
