Musician Suki Waterhouse said that her 2-year-old daughter, whom she shares with fiancé Robert Pattinson, isn’t really bothered by Pattinson’s slightly scary costume and makeup that he wears while playing Batman.
In fact, it seems the toddler is embracing her dad’s alter-ego.
During an appearance on a recent episode of the “And The Writer Is” podcast, Waterhouse, 34, revealed the sweet nickname the toddler uses when she sees Pattinson, 40, as the vigilante.
“She calls him, like, ‘Daddy Batman’ now because he’s always dressed up like that for the next seven months whenever he’s on FaceTime,” said the singer, who gave birth to the baby girl in 2024.
During the podcast episode, Waterhouse opened up about being a mom, revealing how her daughter processes her parents’ unique jobs.
The couple have not publicly revealed their daughter’s name.
The songwriter told host fellow musician Ross Golan that her daughter understands that Waterhouse is a musician and that her dad dons a cape and mask to portray Batman. She shared the funny moment that she and her daughter had on FaceTime with Pattinson, who called them from the set of the long-anticipated “The Batman” sequel, “The Batman Part II,” which is currently in production.
“She’s on FaceTime to her dad who today is covered in blood with huge black circles around his eyes and I’m like, ‘Hi, is it fine?’ And we’re just like, ‘It’s fine,’” she told Golan.
While Pattinson is away filming, Waterhouse has been enjoying some mother-daughter bonding time. She shared on the podcast that she and her daughter were flipping through a book the other day, when the toddler spotted a girl holding a guitar.
“She was like, ‘That’s your job,’” she recalled to Golan.
Waterhouse said her daughter had been watching her play guitar and practice her set as she prepared for her “Loveland Tour,” which kicked off on July 22 in Phoenix, Arizona.
“She’ll say, like, ‘mommy songs’ (and) I’ll show her my music videos and stuff and so it’s cool,” she continued.
Waterhouse added that her daughter enjoys sitting in on glam sessions with her hair and makeup team and looking at the different nail polish options.
Waterhouse and Pattinson, who were first spotted together in 2018, have both opened up about their family and the experience of raising a daughter.
When Waterhouse stopped by TODAY in December 2024, she gushed that she was “completely and utterly besotted” with her baby girl.
“I didn’t know that it would be this good,” she said.
After her appearance, she spoke with TODAY.com and talked about how excited she was to be taking her daughter on tour for the first time.
She explained, “There’s so many hours before you get on stage of walking around, being in a different city — doing that with her will be amazing.”
Waterhouse also shared that her favorite moment of the day was playing in the pool with her daughter and fiancé.
“We have, like, a routine of putting her in the swimming pool and jumping in and out of the pool,” she said. “That’s just always the most fun, like, end of the day, 5 p.m., we all get in the pool and be silly. It’s amazing.”
Pattinson has also talked about parenthood, discussing how he has grown since becoming a father in an interview with Icon Magazine published in October 2025.
The proud dad said, “I have so much more patience. It’s funny, it’s not even patience; I genuinely enjoy hanging out with babies. That surprised me.”
He playfully added, “It’s also funny how you start having real, normie conversations — about things like schools or daycares… it’s so strange. It’s like, there’s this gravitational pull…Like, I have to wear Patagonia puffer jackets and cargo shorts now. I just have to.”
