It’s not that they’re hiding the kids; they’re protecting them. Most celebs post a blurry back-of-the-head shot. Theo and Ruth? Zero. We’ve seen more of the Loch Ness Monster than we have of their children. It’s almost a game at this point.
You scroll through Google, and you find a picture of Theo holding a grocery bag and you think, “Is that a stroller behind him? Is that his toddler’s tiny hand?” And you zoom in like a detective solving a cold case. We’ve all done it. We’re all that person.
