In a recent documentary titled 'Billy Idol Should Be Dead,' Billy Idol discovers he has a long-lost son named Brant, fathered unknowingly during his 1985 'Rebel Yell Tour.' The revelation came when Idol's daughter Bonnie took a 23andMe DNA test, leading to the surprising discovery of Brant. Both Idol and his children, Bonnie and Willem, expressed shock at learning about Brant's existence. The film features insights from Brant, who shared his own doubts about his biological father, ultimately confirming the connection. Idol has since embraced Brant, highlighting their newfound bond.
"My husband just surprised me with a 23andMe, with a DNA test as a Christmas present. And then a few weeks later, I get the results back on the app and open it and I'm like, who is this? This Brant."
"I actually had a son that I didn't realize who I fathered on the Rebel Yell tour without knowing it."
"I was like, 'Mom, is there a chance Mark might not be my biological father?' And she's like, 'Well, it's pretty crazy, but back in the day, we broke up and I actually spent a weekend with Billy Idol'."
"Billy Idol has welcomed Brant into his life in recent years, sharing backstage photos with him on Instagram."
