Chris Appleton and his daughter, Kitty-blu Appleton, form an unbeatable duo. The renowned celebrity hairstylist, whose impressive clientele encompasses Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and Ariana Grande, along with his 20-year-old daughter, graced the US Open 2025 on August 27. Kitty-blu stole the spotlight with her enchanting attire.
As they soaked in the tennis matches from the stands of the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York, Kitty-blu displayed a captivating intensity, donning a chic halter-top white dress and a sleek high ponytail. She accessorized her look with dazzling silver embellishments, including a statement watch, a stylish cross necklace, and delicate hoop earrings.
Meanwhile, Chris opted for a sophisticated navy suit paired with a lighter blue checkered dress shirt and a patterned tie. The 44-year-old added a touch of elegance with gold cufflinks on his suit and a pristine white pocket square peeking out from his breast pocket.
This father-daughter outing followed closely on the heels of Chris's emotional revelation to his children about his sexuality, after nine years in a relationship with his ex, Kate Katon. Sharing his heartfelt thoughts on Jay Shetty's 'On Purpose' podcast on August 6, Chris recounted, "They were confused, and I suddenly felt like I had ruined their lives. I felt like I had failed as a dad, for my role was to protect them. If anyone ever hurt them, I would shield them. Yet, here I was, the one causing them pain."
Despite this challenging period, Chris and his family managed to find solace and hope. As the author of 'Your Roots Don’t Define You' noted during the podcast, "I believe I'm in a good place now." Echoing her father's sentiments, Kitty-blu shared an Instagram video about her dad's vulnerable appearance on 'On Purpose'. "We are an incredibly close-knit family," she said in an August 7 reel. "We genuinely have each other's back, through every twist and turn of life."
