Meet Natalie Wood’s Granddaughter, Who Was Named After One Of Her Grandmother’s Best Roles
Natasha Gregson Wagner recently attended the Warner Bros. Archives in Burbank with her daughter Clover, whom she brought to learn more about her grandmother, Natalie Wood. Following this significant outing was the release of the TCM Original, The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of.
This was one of Natasha’s attempts at preserving Natalie’s legacies, as she launched a perfume line named Natalie in 2016, and released the documentary What Remains Behind, plus a memoir, More Than Love: An Intimate Portrait of My Mother, Natalie Wood.

As Clover started seventh grade this year, her teacher was thrilled to hear her first name and told her about Natalie’s “Daisy Clover” character, which happened to be the inspiration behind the moniker. Clover was stunned and narrated her ordeal to Natasha, who then advised her to admit privately that she is indeed Natalie Wood’s granddaughter.
Although Natasha was only 11 when her mother died of hypothermia as a result of drowning—so she and her grandkid never met—Natasha is willing to educate Clover about her lineage, as the little girl is starting to get curious. She added that sharing the story with the public has helped her process the loss over the years.

Who was Natalie Wood?
Natalie began her acting career at 4, and as a teen, she earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress after playing Judy in 1955’s Rebel Without a Cause. She appeared in several movies including Love with the Proper Stranger, The Great Race, and Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice.

She took a decade-long hiatus from Hollywood after welcoming Natasha and her sister, Courtney Brooke. She married twice to Robert Wagner and then Richard Gregson; however, she was known for her many affairs. Natalie’s passing came during the making of the 1983 science fiction film Brainstorm, which saw a few changes to accommodate her unexpected death.
