Damien explained: “I was speaking to a lot of my friends who are also second generation of parents in the industry. They say exactly the same thing: That things to outsiders that may seem totally strange and extraordinary, for us we’ll just have grown up with in everyday life.”
The mother and son have been called out for how close they are, especially after the actress revealed Damian was the person who takes her bikini photos that she regularly posts on social media.

In the new interview, Damian called it “business,” adding, “We don’t think about it for any more than point, press, done, post.”
He said he and his mother were more like “siblings” than parent and child because it was just the two of them growing up.
Damian said they are “extraordinarily alike and in tune,” have a “twin telepathy” and can carry on “complete conversations” with just nods and shakes of their heads.

“He looks after me … it’s relaxing knowing someone is behind the camera who looks out for you.”
Strictly Confidential is set for release on Friday.
