ENTITY shows 5 facts about Skye HerjavecVia Pexels/@Bas Masseus

The children of celebrities have it tough. They have to navigate their parents’ fame and the public eye, while also trying to make their own place in the world. Skye Herjavec is no exception.

Her father, Robert Herjavec, a Croatian-Canadian businessman, is best known for his role as a host of “Shark Tank” and his stint on “Dancing with the Stars.” He and Skye’s mother, Diane Plese, divorced in 2016. Robert Herjavec married his “Dancing with the Stars” co-star Kym Johnson and they have two children together.  Although there’s plenty of information about her parents, mostly tabloid coverage, Skye and her siblings, Caprice and Brendan, have kept a comparatively low profile. In fact, she’s so under the radar the only images of her appear to be her LinkedIn profile photo and footage from this YouTube video from what appears to be a class project.

Here’s what we know about Skye Herjavec that proves she’s most definitely a #WomanThatDoes.

1 She calls herself a Trojan.
