Just like we’ve looked to celebrities for fashion, home decor, health and beauty inspiration for years, when it comes time to bring baby into the world, we often find ourselves looking to celebrity parents for their insight on everything from the best bottle for baby to the cutest maternity clothes.

With inspiration coming from all over, luxury stroller brand iCandy recently sought to determine just who the most influential celebrity parents are. To do so, they sifted through used Google Keyword Planner to calculate the global search volume for baby and parenting-related terms for 259 of the world’s most well-known parents. Key terms used within the study were baby, stroller, pram, pushchair, buggy, nursery and maternity outfit. The search volume for all terms was combined to create an overall influence total and then ranked to reveal the most influential parents around the world.

While there are some obvious names on the list, there are a few surprises sprinkled in. Check out the top 10 below, and let us know who you think should’ve made it on the list.

9. Blake Lively

Always glowing and gorgeous, Blake Lively has made headlines over the past year after announcing her fourth pregnancy and stepping out on the red carpet and in public sporting a variety of adorable maternity looks like these polar express jammies and the above one-piece swimsuit.

7. Meghan Markle

Meghan Markle, the former Duchess of Sussex, has been in the spotlight not only for her royal status but also for her candid discussions about motherhood on her latest podcast Archetypes. The debut of the Harry and Meghan documentary on Netflix has also added increased interest in the behind the scenes family life of the former royal couple.

6. Khloé Kardashian

Khloé Kardashian and ex Tristan Thompson officially welcomed baby No. 2 via surrogate in early August 2022. Kardashian’s initial pregnancy announcement in mid-July came as a shock to fans as Kardashian had previously ended her relationship with Thompson in January after another report of infidelity surfaced.

5. Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner welcomed her second child, a baby boy, with rapper Travis Scott on February 2, a day after their daughter Stormi’s birthday, now 4. While the couple initially named their son Wolf Jacques Webster, which honored Scott, as his birth name is actually Jacques Webste, Jenner announced shortly afterward that her son would no longer be named Wolf. The beauty mogul revealed the name of her son to be Aire in June of 2023 and has opened up about her difficult journey with postpartum depression.

4. Tom Brady

2. Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian, the reality TV icon, remains a trendsetter in parenting choices and lifestyle decisions, frequently making headlines for her family’s ventures and her unique approach to motherhood.

1. Rihanna

After announcing her pregnancy in early 2022, Rihanna went on to revolutionize maternity fashion and set the internet ablaze in anticipation of her little one. While the pop star, beauty and fashion mogul shared the news that she gave birth to a baby boy on May 13, she and her partner A$AP Rocky have remained tight-lipped about other details.
