Sebastian Stan made a touching statement at the 97th Academy Awards by bringing his mother, Georgeta Orlovschi, as his guest. As images of the mother-son duo at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles surfaced online, fans admired the actorβs heartfelt gesture, calling it “adorable.”
Nominated for Best Actor for his portrayal of a young Donald J. Trump in The Apprentice, Stan reflected on his decision to attend the event with his mother. Speaking to ABC News on the red carpet, he shared a childhood memory of visiting Los Angeles with her. “Before we moved to America, we took a tour bus in Los Angeles, and we passed by the Dolby Theatre. I must have been about 10 years old,” he recalled. “I wanted to share this moment with her. I owe her everything.”
Orlovschi, visibly moved, expressed her pride in an interview with E! News. “He works so hard and deserves all the success. I couldn’t be more proud. He’s amazing,” she said.
Stan, who has received widespread acclaim for his performance in The Apprentice, previously acknowledged his mother and stepfather, Tony, in his Golden Globe acceptance speech earlier this year. Reflecting on their sacrifices, he said, “This is for my mom, who left Romania in search of a better life and gave me everything, and for my stepfather, Tony, who stepped in to support a single mom and a growing kid.”
Fans flooded social media with admiration, celebrating the emotional tribute to his mother and the journey behind his success, making this Oscars moment one of the most talked-about highlights of the evening.
