Shailene Woodley

There's been times when I've had heartbreaking moments and I'm like, 'I can't believe you said that,' or 'I can't believe you did that'. And it hurts, it still hurts, and it'll always hurt, but I've never had somebody that I truly cared about just walk out on me, whether it was a boyfriend, or an aunt, mom or dad.

American Actress

Lydia Ko

Everyone gets surprised because neither one of my parents play golf. Like I said in my speech, my aunt and uncle really love golf, and we visited them, and she gave me two clubs. Like people think when they don't know who my dad is, they think he's my coach.

My mom was always pretty supportive. She saw me do plays and she'd always act out the parts I did. My aunt, who played a big part in my life, was a little bit more reserved, because if they don't see you on TV every week they think you must be starving.

Use 'aunt' to address female kin related by blood or marriage in extended family.

Family Connection

'Aunt' also refers to your uncle's wife, emphasizing family roles, not just blood ties.

Uncle's Wife

In some cultures, 'aunt' can be used for any older female acquaintance or neighbor.

Cultural Variation

Use 'aunt' as an honorary title for a woman who's supportive like family.

Honorary Title

The term can show affection and does not always mean a blood relationship.

Endearment

'Aunt' doesn't imply legal guardianship, but rather emotional support.

Not a Guardian
