Niecy Nash has passed down the acting bug to her daughter, Dia La Ren, who is following in her famous mom's footsteps and the resemblance between the mother-daughter duo is remarkable. 

The 23-year-old actress looks so much like The Rookie: Feds star, fans would be forgiven for confusing the two.

Dia's Instagram page is packed with photos of her posing up a storm in sunny LA. There are also several featuring Niecy and their social media followers adore seeing them together.

Dia caught the acting bug when she featured in her mom's show, Claws, in 2018. She's also appeared in The Rookie: Feds and Niecy's Netflix thriller, Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story

"I was like, 'Girl, I'm more confused now than I was before this. I don't know. If I have to coin it in the moment, I would say I'm Jess-sexual.
