Zoe Saldaña is a proud boy mom!

The Emilia Pérez actress shares her three kids — twins Cy Aridio and Bowie Ezio, 10, and Zen Anton, 8 — with husband Marco Perego, whom she married in 2013. Though she remains queen in the castle, Saldaña has previously opened up about not raising her boys with gender-specific roles, but "teaching our little boys to honor women and to celebrate women."

"We're very hard on our boys the same way we're hard on women. And boys are encouraged to be strong and to suppress their emotions," she explained to PEOPLE in 2023.

"And then once you learn to do that so much for so long, you become completely excommunicated from your feelings. We definitely understood the assignments and accepted it knowing that we were raising boys during a time when women's movements are so important."

From their sweet, fun moments at home to their cool photos on the red carpet, see the sweetest photos of Zoe Saldaña, Marco Ferego and their handsome boys.

In full Gamora costume, Saldaña reflected on being a working mom. "Being on the road is hard when you’re away from your children," she wrote. "To all the moms out there making the ultimate sacrifice for their dreams. Those dreams are their’s too! Trust the process… #momlife."

"Being your mother is such a treat. The laughs, the jokes, the @lego pieces everywhere, the brawls, the meltdowns, the milestones that ache so deeply, the achievements that make our hearts bursts…" the Oscar nominee wrote on Instagram.

"Everything about you is meant to be just as it is. Stay wild, pure and free," she concluded before also sharing a sweet note about their dog, "Oh and your furry baby sister Dolce completes us so well! Our crazy little girl is meant for us too!"

"My reason, my destiny, my mirrors. On Mother’s Day I have you to thank. I hold you responsible for my sleepless nights, my guilt, my painful growth, my salty tears, my endless obsession with being responsible for you- for all that, I thank you," the New York native wrote back in 2022.

"If by any chance time were to stop and my life would hit a reset, I would still choose you, a million times over. And I would do it again and again- I would still choose you. All four of you. My favorite people. I love you x infinity."

Happy Birthday, Everyone!

Because sometimes cards don't always convey the full message, Saldaña revealed she and her loved ones prefer sending birthday videos and made this sweet compilation of all the ones they've created.

Picture-Perfect

Between the kids playing, bright decorations and Zoe and Marco looking deeply in love, this Instagram video from Mother's Day 2021 looked like it was straight from a movie. And the accompanying message didn't disappoint.

"I know one day they will be all grown and off to pursue whatever their hearts dream. So I want them to remember me this way, dancing with their father, and laughing at every silly thing they do or say," she began.

"As I grow older and become more comfortable in my role as their mother, I’m beginning to realize that what they need most are these moments of joy and togetherness, of dance and laughter," she continued.

"They can figure out the rest for themselves, the world has a way of helping you raise them, and it provides the challenges. Happy Mother’s Day to all the women waking up every morning determined to win the hearts of their children, no matter the cost! And cheers to the husbands that celebrate them!"
