Bruce Springsteen opens up about children’s attitude towards fame

Bruce Springsteen might be celebrated globally but his kids are ignorant of his musical talents.

The 75-year-old legendary musician shared that his kids have always been disinterested towards what he does their whole lives.

“Except for a few guitars and a piano, you wouldn’t know musicians lived here,” Springsteen told The Times in an interview on Saturday, June 21.

Sharing how they kept a normal environment for kids, he said, “The kids grew up in another house in town, a midsized home not unlike the ones their friends lived in, and we tried to keep a very natural domestic existence for them. Anything else is a burden they don’t need.”

Speaking of his fame, the Born in the U.S.A. hitmaker told the outlet, “They ignore it. They might come to a show, bring their friends, but it’s never been a central part of their lives.”

Springsteen shares three children, Evan, 34, Jessica, 33, and Samuel, 31, with his wife and fellow E Street Band member Patti Scialfa.

Previously speaking about raising his children, Springsteen told the outlet in 2017, “We had our kids late, I was 40 when our first son was born, and they showed a healthy disinterest in our work over all the years.”

He added, “They had their own musical heroes, they had their own music they were interested in. They’d be pretty blank-faced if someone mentioned a song title of mine.”
