Flor Gil wants to be a mother like chef Bela Gil
The 18-year-old talks about her family legacy and the choice to follow in her mother's footsteps.

In the October issue of Claudia magazine, 18-year-old Flor Gil revealed her intention to experience motherhood with Bela Gil as her primary reference. The interview, which brought together grandmother, mother, and daughter, highlighted the young woman's desire to follow the chef's example when raising her own children.
What Motivated the Interview
The meeting between Flora, Bela, and Flor was organized to discuss their paths, freedom, and legacy. The central theme of the conversation became how each generation understands autonomy and nurture within the Gil family.
Flor's Desire to Be a Mother
Flor clearly expressed her goal of becoming a mother in the same way her mother did, describing Bela as a role model. She also praised her grandmother Flora, highlighting the subtle strength with which the matriarch exerts influence without needing to raise her voice.
How Bela Gil Practices Motherhood
Bela Gil, chef and TV host, commented on the autonomy she received from Flora in her upbringing and stated that she seeks to offer the same space to her own children. The chef has over 12 simultaneous projects, including restaurants, lectures, and publications, and describes motherhood as an integral part of her life.
The Role of Music in the Family
Music remains a connecting thread among the three generations. Flor began her musical career at age 6, released the album “Cinema Love” in 2025, and completed her first solo tour last year, always acknowledging the influence of her grandfather Gilberto Gil and other musician relatives.
Flora Gil's Legacy
Flora Gil, Flor's grandmother, established a career as an entrepreneur and cultural producer. She organized the copyrights for Gilberto Gil's compositions and created the publishing house within Gêgê Produções. In the interview, Flora emphasized the importance of advice and the defense of individual choices within the family.
Future Perspectives
With motherhood as a goal, Flor Gil intends to apply the principles of autonomy and nurture learned from Bela. While developing her musical career, the young woman maintains a close bond with her family, recognizing that the support of her mother and grandmother was decisive for her decisions.
