Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs’ 15-year-old son, Walker, is the perfect plus-one.

Walker made a rare appearance alongside his mom at the Los Angeles premiere of “Wicked” on Nov. 9. 

Menzel, 53, wore a black one-shouldered gown, while Walker looked dapper in a dark suit and sneakers.

The film, releasing in theaters on Nov. 22, is an adaption of the Tony-winning Broadway musical. Menzel originated the role of Wicked Witch Elphaba in 2003.

Menzel shares Walker with her ex-husband, Taye Diggs. The former couple, who met while starring in the original Broadway production of “Rent,” parted ways in 2013, after 10 years of marriage. Menzel has been married Aaron Lohr, an actor-turned-therapist, since 2017.

Both Menzel and Diggs have been vocal about their commitment to co-parenting peacefully. 

“Your child comes first, that’s all,” Menzel shared during a conversation with People. “He comes first and you have to get past your own egos and you never talk bad about each other.”

Diggs told the outlet that Walker is their “main objective” in life.

“He’s what’s most important for us, so we’re still there as a family,” Diggs said, adding, “We were friends to start out with, but especially when you have a kid in the mix, there’s no time for any negativity.”

Walker is a man of many talents, according to his proud dad. It should come as no surprise that he’s a gifted performer.

“He can act. He can sing. He can dance,” Diggs gushed to “ET” in April. Diggs added that Walker is also “a fierce athlete,” and an especially good basketball player.

Menzel is grateful that Walker is still happy to show her affection.

“He’s a teenager, but he still hugs me once in a while so I’ll take that,” Menzel recently told People.

“What surprises me is just how mercurial it is, one minute they want nothing to do with you, and the next minute they really show you how much they need you,” she continued. “You really have to be on your toes and be willing to get out of their way and out of your own way and not take things too personally. Know that they feel your love but they also need their space.”
