Jude Law's on-screen daughter Sophie in The Holiday looks unrecognisable 18 years on - and she's now a mum

Since its release in 2006, The Holiday has been a firm Christmas film favourite. 

Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet, and Jack Black have maintained their status as huge Hollywood stars over the 18 years that have passed since the movie’s release. However, some other cast members have chosen to lead a life away from the limelight.

Miffy Englefield, from West Sussex, was just six when she played Jude’s character Graham’s eldest child Sophie. 

Now, the former child star looks unrecognisable and has parked her acting career to focus on being a mum to her four-year-old daughter, Frankie. 

Miffy’s natural ginger hair is now jet black and partially shaved and she has plenty of tattoos and body modifications.

One of the cast members, a mother-of-one, seems to be involved in modeling work. On her Instagram profile, she describes herself as ‘Short, loud, and mostly ridiculous. Hot Mum. Always overdressed. All grown up’.

'I'm a mum now, I've got a three year old. I feel like that's the biggest change. I've got a fantastic daughter', Miffy told MailOnline (pictured recreating Amanda Wood's iconic shot)

‘I’m a mum now, I’ve got a three year old. I feel like that’s the biggest change. I’ve got a fantastic daughter’, Miffy told MailOnline (pictured recreating Amanda Wood’s iconic shot) 

Miffy told MailOnline last year:  ‘I think I’ve changed quite a lot since I was six, I think a lot of people have, but especially me. It wasn’t until I started doing TikTok that I’ve started getting recognised.

‘I’m a mum now, I’ve got a three year old. I feel like that’s the biggest change. I’ve got a fantastic daughter and I’m in a very, very lucky position to be able to stay at home with her until she starts school, which is really not far away at all’.

She laughed, ‘It makes me feel very, very old whenever I remember it’.

She’s now found fame in a new way as content creator on TikTok, where she boasts 74,000 followers – the child star makes videos with her partner Alex Whivley-Conway and their little girl, Frankie.

Miffy began her TikTok journey during the pandemic, which she described as a ‘really weird time’ to have a baby.

She explained, ‘I live quite far away from the rest of my family, so I was pretty isolated. I’m really into fashion and stuff these days and I just decided that I was going to start making little videos and then it’s just sort of grew from there.

‘I’d start talking about the holiday a little bit on there and I do a lot of secondhand shopping and things like that. It’s been fabulous, I’ve met so many lovely people through it and I love it I absolutely love posting on there’.

‘I was a pretty unusual six year old. I was very outlandish and overconfident, I think is the best way is to describe it.

At the time, she ‘didn’t really get the velocity’ of what she was doing – to the youngster, it was another ‘excuse to perform’.

As a huge fan of Christmas herself, Miffy loves being part of people's festive memories and experiences across the world and also shares updates of her life now on TikTok

She added ‘But it was it was very surreal, you know, we came from quite a poor background, living in a council house.

‘It was very, very different to the life that me and my dad knew and being on a film set was very surreal.

Reminiscing on filming alongside stars such as Jude and Cameron , she said, ‘It was lovely. I mean, I couldn’t have asked for better treatment and neither could my dad.

‘We got on really, really well with everyone and they always made time for us off screen as well as on screen.

Miffy described her on-screen father as ‘fantastic, funny and kind’. 

She said ‘I remember once on set we were all telling each other tongue twisters for about half an hour and just found it hilarious.

‘He had so much patience with us and there was no sort of separation between doing the work and hanging out with us – they didn’t have to do that at all but they did’.

She concluded: ‘I couldn’t have asked for better people to work with it. It was my best experience on any film set easily’.

As a huge fan of Christmas herself, Miffy loves being part of people’s festive memories and experiences across the world.

She joked, ‘Oh, it’s so bizarre. I got sent a photo a couple of years ago of Khloe Kardashian watching the holiday. That’s insane, like that is ridiculous.

‘I got a message on Instagram a few years ago from a lady who was getting married and she loved The Holiday so much that in her wedding book, the “The People Signed,” she had her and her partner recreate the poster from The Holiday, which blows my mind.

‘It’s absolutely crazy. Me and my dad didn’t realise how big the film was going to be at home.

‘So to get messages coming up 20 years on, which makes me feel incredibly old, that people look forward to it. It’s like their Christmas tradition, they come home to their family and that’s what they watch.

‘It baffles me, it’s absolutely insane and I love it. I love being a little part of people’s Christmas traditions. I think it’s so sweet.’

Her daughter Frankie watched the movie ‘as soon as she could talk’ and it’s become an ongoing joke in the family – however, she hasn’t watched in a few years herself as she struggles with ‘cringing’ at herself as a child.
