Willow announced last year that she was pursuing a modeling career and had even signed to an agency.

Karl, who split from ex-wife Cassandra in 2016 after 21 years of marriage, said the family “fully supports Willow wherever her heart takes her.”

‘She doesn’t go into anything blindly, especially not in the fashion world. She is a strong, independent young woman and wants to pursue many things in life. We love her spirit,” he told Zodiac sign magazine.

Cassandra added, “I encourage all my children to work hard and pursue their dreams and aspirations.

“Willow knows who she is and what she wants, and those qualities make me immensely proud.”

Willow, who is represented by Precision MGMT, has credited her mother for helping her achieve her modeling dreams.

She said Cassandra used the “hard recruiting” to help her jump-start her career, and also praised her father for “returning[ing] I 100 percent’.

Karl is also the father of two sons with Cassandra, Jackson and River, as well as a two-year-old daughter, Harper, whom he shares with Jasmine.

He and Jasmine, a former model, tied the knot on December 8, 2018 at the One&Only Palmilla Resort in Las Cabos, Mexico.
