In PEOPLE's exclusive look at Oprah + Viola: A Netflix. Genesis is Davis's only daughter, while Julius has two children from a previous relationship. Viola Davis says she had a little help from the heavens in landing her now-husband, Julius Tennon. "I feel about Genesis the same way I feel about myself when I look at myself when I younger," she said in an April 2022 interview on "The Today Show." "I think it's a great opportunity to grow and even learn about me, because I have to give her affirmations - every day I do it," she continued, saying she tells her daughter that "your heart and your head are the two most important things in your life," "I can give you everything, everything that I know, but it's still going to be hard," and "mommy's going to love you more than anyone is ever going to love you - even the love of your life." After sharing her words of wisdom, Davis added that she's really also "telling it to myself." More recently, Davis opened up about how motherhood has been a healing experience for her. That's all a part of her loving herself, even if none of those things change." Even her mistakes, her failures, her triumphs, what she looks like, all of it. In 2017, Davis opened up to the publication about her daughter, saying her love for Genesis, now 12, "surpasses anything that I could want from the material world." She told People, "I empower her to understand that she has to count it all as joy. Davis and her husband, Julius Tennon, welcomed Genesis via adoption back in 2011, as People reported at the time.
