Celebrity entrepreneur and media icon Paris Hilton has opened up about her love for her furry family members, sharing how being a dog mom continues to bring her immense happiness.
The 44-year-old star, who shares two children — son Phoenix Barron and daughter London Marilyn — with her husband Carter Reum, described her pets as her “first babies.” In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Hilton said, “My dogs were my first babies before I had kids. They have brought so much joy and unconditional love into my life.”
The House of Wax actress fondly recalled her first dog, Tinkerbell, who became a fan favorite during her reality TV days on The Simple Life. “Tinkerbell was my first love — my best friend, my sister, my sidekick, my family,” Hilton shared. “Every day with her was pure happiness.”
On the professional front, Hilton is preparing for the launch of her new children’s television series, Paris & Pups, inspired by her passion for animals. “My kids were the first test audience,” she revealed. “It was so cute to see what made them laugh — they’ve loved every episode, and that makes me so happy.”
Hilton and Reum tied the knot in 2021 and have since welcomed Phoenix in January 2023 and London Marilyn in November 2023, marking new chapters of love, family, and furry friendship in the Hilton household.
