Antonia Gentry’s parents

Sandra and Tony Gentry are Antonia Gentry’s parents. Her father, Tony Gentry, is American, and her mother, Sandra Gentry, is Jamaican. Her mother was interested in poetry and art, and supported Antonia’s early interest in acting by writing plays for her to perform in when she was just five years old.

In an interview with Teen Vogue, she talked about her parents and said, “I actually have videos that I used to make on my dad’s potato of a video camera. I would put on little character acts, and in one of [them] I actually say to the camera, ‘I think I’m going to become an actress.’ My mom found those videos about two years ago. It was so embarrassing but very cool to see.”

In an interview with Teen Vogue, she talked about her mother and said, “Growing up, my mom was someone whom I could confide in if I ever felt a certain way about my identity, because she understood, her being a black woman.” In an interview with Elle, she said, “My mom knew how to do my hair. She sheltered me a lot—or tried to keep me from walking out the door wearing my skin on my sleeve. She tried to instill in me, ‘You are not what other people prescribe you to be. You are who you are, and you need to accept yourself.”
