Remember Lavender from Matilda? She’s all grown up now

Feeling old anyone?

Laura Holland

Prepare to feel old. 

A few weeks back we came across Embeth Davidtz, who played Miss Honey in the movie Matilda, and how she is now 50 years old but still looks the exact same. She looked young when she first appeared as Miss Honey back in 1996, but now, 20 years later, she still looks so fresh and youthful.

We’ve found another cast member, Kiama Davael, who played Matilda’s best friend Lavender and she is all grown up. Unlike Miss Honey she has definitely changed since we saw her in the movie.

She’s absolutely stunning and so different to the little girl with glasses and braids.

Kiama recently celebrated her 30th birthday marking the milestone age with a post on Instagram thanking God for the guidance over the years.

#30 ❤️?? I MADE IT! But I take NONE of the glory. Thank you God for carrying me over these past 10 years when I couldn’t carry myself. Thank you for guidance, direction, & for growth. Thank you for NEVER leaving my side. Thank you for discernment. Thank you for removing me from situations I didn’t belong in. Thank you for removing people from my life that aren’t meant to go to the next level with me. I strive to be a woman of grace, confidence, faith, power, integrity and honesty. I pray You continue to carry & cover me, shape & mold me, & protect me. I’m SO proud of who I’ve become & what these 30 years have taught me. Thank you God for choosing me. Here’s to so many more that I can’t even count ?????. #HappyBirthdayToMe #BirthdayGirl #Dirty30 #30AndUpClub #Blessed

A few months back she shared a reunion photo in tribute to Mara Wilson on her birthday.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane and rewatch the trailer for Matilda:
