Zoë Kravitz Shares a Cute Throwback Picture of Herself and Father Lenny Kravitz on Instagram

Zoë Kravitz rarely posts about her personal life. Promo pics highlighting her latest projects like superhero movie The Batman or the tech thriller Kimi? Sure. But recently, the young actor did give followers a little crumb of something a bit more personal: a photo with dad, Lenny Kravitz.

Earlier this week, the High Fidelity alum posted a throwback picture of herself and her father Lenny Kravitz sitting on a bedspread barefoot. In the old snapshot, as she smiles at her father, Zoë sports a plain white T-shirt with matching shorts. Her hair (in all its natural glory) is styled with a large silver pin. Lenny, lovingly smiling back, rocks white trousers and a silver bangle bracelet.

The caption simply read, “This guy,” with a black heart emoji.

Zoë’s celebrity friends couldn’t help but gush over the throwback photo. The Office alum Mindy Kaling wrote in the comments section, “R u kidding me.” Singer and actress Willow Smith said, “Everything.” Even Lenny himself took the time to comment on the heartwarming pic, writing, “You are the sweetest. I love you [red heart emoji].”

This isn't the first time the father-daughter pair exchanged kind words on Instagram. Shortly after the Big Little Lies actress made her Saturday Night Live hosting debut, the 57-year-old singer/songwriter shared a heartfelt message, writing, “To see you shine in the same building where your grandparents met and worked was surreal. You were perfection. I love you endlessly.”

Keep the throwbacks coming, Zoë.
