Personal Life
[edit]Despite of being the daughter of Bono and Ali Hewson and having grown up with all kind of possibilities, she has said: 'My parents work really hard to make sure that we don’t feel entitled. They just don’t spoil us. They want us to work for things.'[6]
Her mother once described show business life as 'tough and lonely and not what you want for your child'. But after all this time she and her husband are completely supporting their daughter's acting career. [6]
'They’re excited about it now, almost too much. They’re like obsessed parents, but it’s cute.' - said Eve.[6]
