At their home in San Diego, California. August 1987

I always wondered how River and Joaquin (Leaf) looked so different, being brothers. Now that I see their parents it makes sense. River looked exactly like the mother and Joaquin like the father...

[OoxB]

Scary how much Joaquin looks like his dad. They could be the same person they look that similar 😮

[JazmeenHamid]

They all look like their dad except for River, who looks like his mum

[claramartins]

it's weird how much joaquin looks like his father. even the way they stares is EXACTLY THE SAME.

[CosmicSphinx]

You can hear the gentle nature in Joaqin's little voice.

[capricorn]

The way river was looking at his sister in the beginning soo adorable

[cleftheart]

You can tell River and Rain are close.

[orangesheep]

I always wonder why River & Joaquin don't look alike. River looks like a handsome popular blonde kid at school. it turns out Joaquin looks a lot like his father while River looks like his mother

[veebee]

Holy heck! Leaf looks 100% like his dad now!!

[MrGlittergirl]

river and Joaquin looked really close as kids and they seemed really close even as adults

[cheesecake]

The voice of Heart Phoenix is so calming, just like River's ! And he looks exactly like her !

[marvelouscrimson]

Who’s here after seeing “Joker”? AWESOME movie 🎥 👏

[bawoman]

Joaquin is so very precious here, omg, And he looks so much like his handsome father now

[Iceis_Phoenix]

River took care of his entire family. He never had a conventional childhood. He was working making movies to take care of everyone. Sure he had great childhood moments but he was the sole breadwinner his entire life. He and Rain sang in the streets for pocket change. They lived in a rat infested hut. He ate mangos on his bday because they were so poor. I cant imagine the stress he must of felt. He loved everyone so much and even took in his half sister Jodeen and her baby. He was going to pay for Summers college education before he was murdered via lethal drink at the Viper Room in 93 that John Frusciante handed him. The truth covered up until William Richert opened up about it. I love River. The truth needs to be known on a larger scale. Everytime I look at comments i see people slander him saying he was a junkie. He was not a junkie he was experimenting yes, but he would willingly take a drug 8 times the lethal limit. He was so loving and trusted everyone this was his downfall. Beware of who you let into your circle.
