However, Paris, 44, didn’t have everybody fooled, as photos circulated of the DJ donning the getup on Sunday at the Anaheim, California, theme park.
They captured the socialite snapping photos of herself on the carousel and on other kiddie rides with her two kids: a son, Pheonix, who turns three in January, and her 2-year-old daughter, London.
She paired her new hairdo with dark blue jeans, a long-sleeved black Mickey Mouse sweater, a black hat, and thick, black-framed glasses.
Paris’s sister, Nicky Hilton, 42, joined them for the outing, along with her little ones, although she didn’t attempt to hide from the crowd, even sporting Minnie Mouse ears while taking pictures on the rides.
Hours earlier, Paris shared a sweet video of her two kids, whom she shares with her husband, Carter Reum, smiling in front of a massive Christmas tree, decorated with silver and pink ornaments.
The youngsters wore matching light gray pajamas with Santa’s face for the photoshoot, during which Phoenix adorably sat on his little sister’s lap.
Paris gushed over the duo’s adorable bond and called them “besties for life,” while recalling her close relationship with her siblings.
“Watching Phoenix and London grow up side by side is the greatest gift. Best friends from the very beginning. There’s nothing like having a sibling to laugh with, learn with, and always feel understood by,” her caption began.
“Growing up with siblings shaped my whole heart, and I’m so grateful they get to have that same bond. I love my forever built-in bestie@NickyHiltonfor showing me just how special that kind of love can be,” the This Is Paris author added.
Paris also has two brothers, Barron Hilton II, 36, and Conrad Hilton, 31.
Despite the TV star’s tight bond with her family, which includes Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kathy Hilton, she kept them all in the dark about the birth of her eldest child until a week after he was born.
Paris welcomed her son via surrogate in 2023 but kept the news private out of concern it would leak.
“Not even my mom, my sisters, my best friend knew until he was over a week old,” the reality star confessed on her This Is Paris podcast.
“It was really nice to have that with Carter, be our own journey together. I just feel like my life has been so public, and I’ve never really had anything be just mine,” Paris continued.
“So, when we were talking about it, I really felt that I wanted this journey to be for us only.”
She also said she and Carter “made a pact” to keep the pregnancy a secret, and they followed through on it.
Paris and Carter began dating in November 2019 after reconnecting at a Thanksgiving dinner with mutual friends.
They had known each other for 15 years before that, but it wasn’t until their first date that their romance blossomed.
