It would only make sense if two of the cutest on-screen besties were related to one another. And while a TikTok video fueled the rumor that Gaten Matarazzo and Heather Matarazzo are related, it is sadly just a rumor. Heather herself confirmed via TikTok that the two stars are not mother and son. "I adore #gatenmatarazzo but he is NOT my son," she captioned her video.

Gaten also confirmed in 2017 to Wired that Heather is, indeed, not his mom. What makes it all much more confusing is that Gaten's mother is also named Heather. So, while his mother is not "The Princess Diaries" actor Heather Matarazzo, she is Heather Matarazzo. (Make sense?)

Mother to Gaten, the other Heather Matarazzo, says of her kiddos in her Twitter biography: "I'm a broadway stage mom, a soccer/basketball mom, and the mom of a just-about-to-drive teenager! They are my joy." Given that her Twitter hasn't been updated since 2015, the bio is dated, though she can certainly still claim the role of Broadway stage mom.
