Billy Joel is a music icon known for his timeless hits and legendary performances. With over 160 million records sold worldwide, Joel has solidified himself as a rock music legend. But besides his successful music career, Joel is also a dedicated family man.
The singer-songwriter has welcomed three children into the world with two different women. His eldest daughter, Alexa Ray Joel, is a talented singer, songwriter, and pianist like her father. Alexa Ray has performed alongside her father at his sold-out shows and has made a name for herself in the New York City music scene.
In addition to Alexa Ray, Joel shares two daughters, Della Rose and Remy Anne, with his fourth and current wife, Alexis Roderick. Della Rose was born in 2015, followed by Remy Anne in 2017. Both girls have been spotted at their father’s concerts and even attended events like the Grammy Awards with their parents.
Billy Joel’s relationship with his second wife, model Christie Brinkley, also produced a daughter, Alexa Ray Joel. The former couple married in 1985 but later divorced in 1994. Despite their split, Joel and Brinkley have maintained a close relationship as co-parents to their daughter.
Joel has been vocal about his love for fatherhood, calling it the most important thing in his life. He has expressed joy in being a dad again in his later years and values the time he spends with his children. Even at his age, Joel enjoys taking on the role of a “house dad” when he’s not touring or making music.
As Joel nears his 100th consecutive sold-out show at Madison Square Garden, he reflects on the joy of sharing the stage with his daughters and the unforgettable memories they have created together.
His upcoming milestone concert will be broadcast live on CBS, marking a historic moment in his legendary career.
