Who are Bella Ramsey’s parents?

It looks like talent certainly runs in Bella's family. Per the Independent, their father, Alex, is a businessman who also plays trumpet, and Bella's sister has played in some amateur groups as well.

Bella also mentioned in a 2016 BBC interview that they and their older sister had been in a comedy theater group together for several years.

As for Bella's mother, there doesn't appear to be much information about her online, though Bella has certainly referenced her before.

In the 2016 BBC interview, when asked how their family and friends reacted to them landing the lead role in the British series The Worst Witch, Bella said: "They are all very proud and supportive. When we got the phone call I was with my mum, sister, cousin, and auntie, there was a lot of screaming and excited jumping, you could have filled a bathtub with the proud teardrops!"

It also looks as though Bella keeps their social media pages focused on their work and other pursuits, and doesn't post photos of their family. But in a post back from 2018, they shouted out "the help of [their] incredible family."

It's possible their family prefers the privacy. After all, in a 2020 Instagram post, Bella posted a photo of themself giving a thumbs-up with someone else, but you could only see the other person's thumb and not their face or body; Bella mentioned in the caption that it was their mom.
