Like many celebrity kin before him, Tyler recently walked in Dolce & Gabbana’s #DGMillennial men’s runway show in Milan. This particular event has become a rite of passage for many aspiring models with close ties to Hollywood, politics, or royalty. The show is famous for featuring next-gen celebrity kids, including Paris and Dylan Brosnan (sons of Pierce Brosnan), Rafferty Law (son of Jude Law), Jack Marsden (son of James Marsden), Dylan and Brandon Lee (sons of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee), Roberto Rossellini (son of Isabella Rossellini), Levi Dylan (grandson of Bob Dylan), and more.

Tyler seems to be very close with his high-profile uncle.
The only son of the former-president’s only sibling, Tyler seems to hold a special place in his uncle’s heart. On Instagram, you can see pictures of the pair playing golf, eating in restaurants, enjoying Thanksgiving together, and posing beside one another in Chappaqua, New York, where the ex-president now resides. In February of last year, Tyler was in a performance at Neighborhood Playhouse in New York City after taking an acting class there. Both Bill and Hillary showed up to see him perform, and according to acting coach James Brill, they stayed after to meet the company’s students and faculty. This isn’t the first time Bill has shown his support for his nephew’s pursuits. In 2018, when Tyler was reportedly working in apparel for the fashion brand Kith, Bill popped by for a visit at the Manhattan flagship store. After stopping to snap a few photos with shoppers and staff, the ex-president spent some time perusing the merchandise, ultimately walking out with a pair of military style trousers. “He was great. Extremely down-to-earth and conversational,” Curtis Rowser, a store employee said of President Clinton in an interview with GQ. Tyler doesn’t shy away from politics.
Though Tyler’s career path has taken him far from Washington, his Instagram account reveals that he’s unafraid to speak his mind on political issues. Under his featured stories, the model has just one category: Black Lives Matter, abbreviated to “BLM.” Here he shares his personal footage of racial justice protests in New York City, along with resources for likeminded activists. Under one picture of Martin Luther King, Jr., Tyler shared this quote: “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” RELATED: See Paul McCartney’s Lookalike Grandson, Who Just Graduated From Yale.
