Roan Stone distanced himself from his mother’s famous profile in a new interview as he insisted he isn’t known for his connection to the actress.
The son of Sharon Stone was adopted as a baby in 2000 by the star, 67, and her ex-husband Phil Bronstein. Following divorce she also adopted Laird and Quinn.
Roan, 25, grew up determined to carve his own path despite his mother’s Hollywood career, which he only credits for ‘putting him in the right rooms’.
Determined to further his already booming career, Roan told how he sometimes works a gruelling 22-hour day with just two hours sleep.
Sharing how he feels about his family connection, he told Hello! magazine: ‘I’m still Sharon Stone’s son, but as life progresses, I’ve managed to carve out a career where I’m known for my business, not my connection to her.’
He is behind the media company Sweat N Shadow Management which offers A-list creative direction, high-end photography, and support with copyright protection.

Roan is also the chief executive of the production company Cahuenga Media Group, a media conglomerate dedicated to music, culture, and creativity.
While he believes he has worked hard to earn his place. he said: ‘I’m very proud of my family and my family’s legacy and the name I carry. I’m carving out a path, with the help of others, in an industry where I have no name. It helps to know the right people – those golden gates, in a way, are already open.’
Roan went on to say that Sharn ‘taught him everything she knows’ about acting, however he claimed he is now teaching her things about business.
He said: ‘When I got into the business side, there’s some experience on her end, but I learnt a lot of things and we would teach each other.’
Elsewhere in the interview, Roan admitted he doesn’t like red carpet appearances but will go to show support for his mother.
He most recently accompanied her at the Los Angeles premiere of her latest film, Nobody 2, with his two brothers.

After the red carpet during an appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers on Wednesday, the beauty said her values kept her a good parent.
‘I wouldn’t have survived [without the values],’ she admitted. ‘I wouldn’t be a sober, healthy, working mom who was able to take three adopted kids — which is just different, let’s just say — and do it by myself with the help of wonderful nannies if I didn’t come from grounded, moral values.’
‘My kids were off school during COVID. We all went through this. Our kids are online and then they are confused about their value systems. It’s been a complicated period to raise children,’ she said.
She continued, sharing, ‘And then I see these pictures of them… All of us on the red carpet. I called them all last night, and we were all talking about it.
‘And I just [told] each one of them how proud I was of them because I looked at them as individuals in that picture. Grounded, centered, handsome, organized. I was so proud of them.
‘I said to my youngest, I said, “You know what? We did it.” And he said, “Mom, we’re a family that weathered the storm,”‘ she added.
She also opened up in 2022 about motherhood in an emotional Instagram comment, where she bravely spoke about her own journey.

Opening up on her experience with baby loss, she said: ‘We, as females don’t have a forum to discuss the profundity of this loss. I lost nine children by miscarriage.’
She continued: ‘It is no small thing, physically nor emotionally yet we are made to feel it is something to bear alone and secretly with some kind of sense of failure.’
Sharon said that ‘instead of receiving the much needed compassion and empathy and healing which we so need,’ women have been let down by gender discrimination due to a predominantly ‘male ideology.’
The star added, ‘Female health and wellness left to the care of the male ideology has become lax at best, ignorant in fact, and violently oppressive in effort.’
Sharon stars opposite Christopher Lloyd, Bob Odenkirk, Connie Nielsen, and Colin Hanks in the motion picture from director Timo Tjahjanto.
The storyline focuses on ‘suburban dad Hutch Mansell,’ played by Lloyd, according to a logline for the film.
It continued: ‘Mansell, a former lethal assassin, is pulled back into his violent past after thwarting a home invasion.’
The action sets ‘off a chain of events that unravels secrets about his wife Becca’s past and his own.’
Sharon, who released her memoir The Beauty of Living Twice in 2021, took to Instagram Stories on Monday with a clip as she left her house for the premiere.
‘On our way to NOBODY 2 Premier @nobodymovie,’ Stone captioned the clip, which was set to NEU SONG’s are you ready?.
Nobody 2 arrives in theatres across the US and UK on August 15.
