Fame, Family, and the Legacy of Goldberg
Goldberg’s granddaughter, Amara Skye, made headlines of her own in 2022 as a contestant on the reality show “Claim to Fame.” She credits her grandmother’s love and encouragement with helping her take that leap.
Her approval always matters to me.
Skye noted Goldberg’s eventual support once casting was confirmed.
But Goldberg’s impact goes far beyond career guidance.
I see her every day. If I don’t see her, it’s definitely a call or text. I’m always in her sight and in her mind.

She added that Goldberg remains hands-on, especially with baby Rose.
She definitely helps me out. We’re a very close-knit family … You know how they say, ‘It takes a village?’ We are the village.
