Paris Hilton said she hopes her children are less obsessed with screens than she is herself.
The 43-year-old reality star made the remark while attending the “A Day of Unreasonable Conversation” summit in Los Angeles on Monday and speaking on the panel alongside U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, as People reported.
The socialite said she hoped her kids would “grow up in a world that’s kind,” adding that such an atmosphere would be more achievable with less emphasis on social media.
“I just want my children just to feel just so loved and seen and want to be that next generation of someone that brings positivity to the world and just to have big hearts and big loving,” Hilton said during the panel. “That’s something that’s really important to me.”
“And also to live a world outside of social media and being on their phone all the time. So I feel that’s really taken a lot from children. Kids are not going outside anymore and playing as much because everyone’s just so busy on their phones,” she continued.
“So hopefully my kids won’t be as addicted to social media as I am,” Hilton concluded.
Hilton shares son Phoenix, 14 months, and daughter London, four months, with her husband Carter Reum. They have been married since 2021 and had both children via surrogate.

The “Simple Life” star said she went through multiple rounds of IVF so she could have a daughter after creating 20 male embryos.
Hilton also said she opted for surrogacy because she was nervous about giving birth.
“I’m just so scared,” she said, as The Daily Wire previously reported. “When I was in ‘The Simple Life,’ I had to be in a room when a woman was giving birth, and that traumatized me… But I want a family so bad, it’s just the physical part of doing it. I’m just so scared,” she continued. “Childbirth and death are the two things that scare me more than anything in the world.”
The celeb said her friend Kim Kardashian, who also had a child via surrogate, convinced her to do it.
