Mark Wahlberg bears an uncanny resemblance to his daughter Grace — or at least he did when his hair was long.

The actor posted a throwback photo of himself with shoulder-length locks via Instagram Monday, alongside a smiling snap of his 12-year-old rocking a similar style.

“They say we look alike? 💕👼” the Oscar nominee, 51, captioned the side-by-side shots.

The “Ted” star’s nephew Jeff Wahlberg commented, “OMFG.”

As for Mario Lopez, the “Saved By the Bell” alum told Mark that he is often also “twinning” with his daughter, Gia.

Mark’s wife, Rhea Durham, for her part, wrote, “♥️💖👯‍♂️👨‍👧❤️‍🔥❣️.”

The former rapper told People in December 2020 that his main parenting goal is to give his brood the “tools that will make them good people.”

He explained, “I want to give them all the things I never had but make sure they understand it’s not normal and that it takes hard work to get what you want.”

While the Emmy nominee noted at the time that he “dreaded” his daughters dating one day, he has been supportive of Ella’s relationship, even working out with her boyfriend, James Stuart.

The “Daddy’s Home” star called his eldest child’s significant other “sweet” in a February interview with Ellen DeGeneres.

“I think he’s more scared of my daughter than he is of me,” Mark joked. “I pray for him more than I pray for her in that relationship.

“They’re perfect for each other,” he continued. “We have a great relationship. He’s fantastic. I hope she can keep him.”

Mark and his family recently moved from Los Angeles to Nevada in order to “be able to give [his] kids a better life to follow and pursue their dreams,” he told “The Talk” co-hosts in October.

The producer considers the relocation “a fresh start” and a “new look,” gushing, “There’s lots of opportunity here.”
