Fun fact: Growing up, legendary actor Al Pacino was like another parental figure to actress Camila Morrone<\/a>. Pacino dated Morrone\u2019s mom, Lucila Sol\u00e1, for a long time, and even remain best friends today.<\/p>\n

For those that don\u2019t know, Pacino and Sola were together from 2008 to 2018, and even after they split up, Pacino reportedly acts as a loving \u201cstepfather<\/a>\u201d figure to Morrone. (In fact, it\u2019s reported that he\u2019s the one who introduced the Daisy Jones & The Six<\/a> star to his buddy, and her ex, Leonardo DiCaprio<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

But what was it like to have Pacino as a parental figure growing up?<\/p>\n

In a recent and rare interview with The Sunday Times<\/a>, Morrone did note that Pacino \u201cis technically not my stepfather, but he was my mom\u2019s partner for a very long time.\u201d<\/p>\n

But she also added how close they are, and how grateful she was to have him in her life growing up! \u201cHow lucky am I to have known him and to have been raised in his presence. I mean, he\u2019s the Messi of my industry. I think I\u2019ll always look back on my childhood and be in awe that I was in the presence of someone like him,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Both Morrone and Pacino are rather private about their bond and their personal lives, but everything Morrone has spilled shows that he\u2019s been an amazing mentor (which we always love to hear)!<\/p>\n

In fact, in an interview via Yahoo<\/a>, Morrone even discussed the acting advice he\u2019d give her: \u201cYou\u2019re fine, just act. Just be yourself. If you cry, you cry. If you don\u2019t, you don\u2019t. Just act, react, and you\u2019ll be fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
