LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The renowned singer Billy Joel, known for hits like 'Piano Man' and 'Uptown Girl,' shared some heartwarming moments involving his two youngest daughters, Della Rose, 8, and Remy Anne, 6.

The singer is father only to three daughters, Alexa Ray, 36, whom he shares with his ex-wife, and Della and Remy. He took the younger ones to watch Taylor Swift perform and meet her during the Eras Tour concert held in Tampa, Florida. The singer revealed that he earned "very cool dad points" for taking his daughters there, as reported by People.

Who are Billy Joel's children?

Alexa Ray Joel

His eldest daughter, Alexa Ray Joel, is from his marriage to Christie Brinkley in 1985. The two divorced in 1994.

Reflecting on fatherhood in 2019, Joel expressed joy and surprise at being mistaken for a grandfather, attributing his youthful spirit to his children.

At his 70th birthday concert at Madison Square Garden, both Alexa Ray and Della joined him on stage, creating special memories by singing together.

Alexa experienced a relatively typical upbringing and was completely unaware of her parents' fame while they lived on Long Island, according to People.

"My parents tried to shield me from how famous they were when I was growing up," she told New York Magazine in 2010. "When everybody said 'Hello, Billy! Hello, Christie!' — I just thought they were popular," she added.

Alexa Ray, named after Ray Charles, embraced her father's musical legacy, pursuing a career as a singer-songwriter and pianist, releasing her own EP, and her latest single is 'Seven Years.'

Sharing a close bond with her siblings, Alexa Ray often celebrates their milestones, like Della's birthdays and special family moments, showcasing the tight-knit relationship within the Joel family.

Della Rose

Billy Joel's second child Della Rose, arrived on August 12, 2015, in New York just a little over a month after he tied the knot with Alexis Roderick on July 4. Just two days after her birth, Alexa Ray commemorated her new little sister on Instagram, expressing happiness over her arrival.

Joel dedicated his song 'Don't Ask Me Why', a favorite of Della's, to her 3-year-old self during a performance at Madison Square Garden in July 2018.

Later that year, she joined him on stage at MSG, dressed in pink Christmas-themed pajamas, to sing the same song.

When Della turned six in 2021, Joel celebrated her birthday with a heartfelt Instagram post, expressing gratitude for her presence in their lives, emphasizing the joy both she and her sister brought during quarantine.

Adding to their cherished experiences, Joel took his younger daughters to a Taylor Swift concert, where they met the pop star backstage, capturing delightful moments shared by the family.

Remy Anne

Remy Anne, Joel and Roderick's second child, was born on October 22, 2017, evoking excitement among everyone involved.

Both Joel and Alexa Ray were present in the delivery room. Celebrating Remy's 6th birthday in October 2023, Joel posted an Instagram carousel featuring the little girl and expressed admiration for her growth, affectionately wishing her a happy birthday.
