The actress described her father as the most vibrant and joyful human she knows, adding that she loves being his daughter and could not wait to hug him and laugh with him in person as soon as it is safe to do so.

Tracee has a close bond with her father and shared a rare picture of them on her Instagram page last month. The snapshot showed their uncanny resemblance. Tracee's caption to the post read:

"Open your eyes, Dad! And I miss you! Looking forward to hanging out soon."

Tracee is an extraordinarily talented actress and is known for her sense of humor, a trait she revealed she got from her father, as he is a very funny person.

Tracee is one of her famous mother, Diana Ross's five children. The musical legend shares her children with two different husbands.

She shares sons Ross and Evan with the late Arne Naess, while Robert is Rhonda, Tracee, and Chudney's father. Diana had Rhonda from a previous relationship with Berry Gordy, but Robert adopted her after their marriage.

In a chat with Fast Company, Tracee said her best habit is finding joy in life, and looking through her relationship with her family and her career highlights suggests she does just that.
