Proof that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree was well in evidence on Sunday as Bella Thorne and her lookalike mother let their hair down with a heady assortment of friends, family and porn stars aboard a luxury yacht in Miami.
The group were on hand to celebrate Mother’s Day, which fell on May 9th in the United States, during Bella’s current stay in Florida, where the actress, 23, spent her formative years before relocating to Los Angeles.
Accompanied by mum Tamara, 50, the former child star showed off her lithe physique in an orange patterned bikini and cropped white shorts as they took advantage of Miami’s soaring spring temperatures.

Making the most of her free time, Bella chatted to guests including adult movie actress Abella Danger, 25, while making her way across the sprawling boat’s upper deck.
The actress later appeared to puff on a dubious looking hand-rolled cigarette in full view of her mother after it was generously passed to her by a friend before retreating into the cabin for a drink.
With the Mother’s Day celebration in full swing, Tamara stripped down to a monochrome striped swimsuit before gamely using the boat’s waterslide to dive into the Atlantic.

Bearing a striking resemblance to her actress daughter, Tamara – a mother of four – raised her arms aloft as she danced to the pounding music that played through the boat’s sound system.
Bella announced her engagement to Italian singer Benjamin Mascolo, who was not seen during Sunday’s celebration, on March 21 and revealed on Instagram that he had proposed in Spain.
Benjamin had arranged for a massive outdoor display including the words ‘MARRY ME’ in lights and a massive heart made of roses with ‘B+B’ written on it.

The actress was kept apart from Benjamin – who she met at the Coachella festival in 2019 – for the first months of lockdown due to travel restrictions between the United States and his native Italy.
They finally reunited in Mexico on July 7 and she gushed on Instagram: ‘After 5 months reunited & it feels so good.’
Bella told her fans she was ‘so happy’ and praised her new fiancée for knowing ‘exactly my style’ when it came to selecting an engagement ring.

When she was 19 she had a fling with Scott Disick, who shortly thereafter began dating Lionel Richie’s then 19-year-old daughter Sofia.
Following the Scott episode Bella was involved in a polyamorous relationship with online celebrity Tana Mongeau and rapper Mod Sun.
Mod later claimed that during the time they were together they got married and divorced.
However when Bella posted a video of their ceremony she wrote in the caption: ‘No, mod and I never really got married, this was one of his bday presents he wanted 🙂 so my friends and I threw together a beautiful night of laughter.’
