A sexy picture of Stella Banderas, the daughter of Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith, caught a new wave of attention. Here are some things we know about the stunner.
Stella Banderas is generally thought to be quite private. However, she recently emerged onto the scene when she uploaded a photo showing her modeling a crop top to her Instagram.
The 24-year-old simply told followers to head to LINE OF ONE fashion brand to purchase a crop top like hers. Yet her striking good looks, enviable figure, and toned abs made the image go viral.

It's not by chance that Stella, who has more than 150,000 Instagram followers, is stunning since she gets her good looks from her father, Antonio Banderas, and her mother, Melanie Griffith.
Stella is the only child from Banderas and Griffith's marriage. The former couple married in 1996 and divorced in 2015. Meanwhile, we have some interesting facts about Stella.
