Haute Living And Empathy Celebrate Regina King At Avra Beverly Hills
On November 5th Haute Living, in partnership with Empathy, hosted an intimate evening at Avra Beverly Hills celebrating Oscar-winning actress and director Regina King, honoring her starring role in Darren Aronofsky Caught Stealing and the launch of her deeply personal venture, MianU.

Empathy: a coalition of industry leaders committed to advancing compassionate technology that builds resilience and readiness for life’s most challenging chapters — partnered with Haute Living to create an evening that embodied connection, support, and grace. The platform delivers innovative solutions at global scale, helping individuals navigate personal challenges through compassionate technology.

Notable guests including David Kessler, Noah Francis, Cindy Goodrich, and Laura Schreffler gathered at the elegant Greek restaurant, where guests enjoyed Avra’s celebrated Mediterranean cuisine. From fresh seafood to signature Greek specialties — in an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication.

The evening’s centerpiece was the debut of MianU, an orange wine honoring King’s late son, Ian. “Every time a cork opens, I’m thinking of Ian,” King shared. The wine — whose name means “Me and You,” represents her way of creating new memories in his spirit, ensuring his legacy lives on through connection and celebration.
King also discussed her upcoming role in Caught Stealing, releasing August 29, where she plays Roman, a relentless beat cop navigating 1990s New York’s gritty underbelly. “Darren is the truth,” she told guests, praising Aronofsky’s authentic vision.

Representatives from Empathy raised heartfelt toasts celebrating King’s courage in transforming grief into purpose — an evening honoring both artistic excellence and profound grace.
