Since he's easily one of the most respected musical artists of his generation, virtually everyone agrees that Billy Joel is an immensely talented performer. For proof of that, all you have to keep in mind is that Billy was able to make a comeback after he lost millions and he earned more money than almost all of his peers in recent years.
When a performer is so beloved that people spend years trying to understand their songs, it can be easy to assume that everything in their life is wonderful. In reality, the truth is that even artists who seem on top of the world can have a lot of problems.
Unfortunately for Billy and the people who love him, it has been known for a long time now that his love life has been very tumultuous. In fact, since Billy first rose to fame, there have been a lot of headlines about his marriages and divorces.
Looking back on Billy's past failed marriages, it seems very unlikely that the singer would regret all of them. After all, Billy has several children from two of his marriages. Given that Billy's eldest daughter is much older than his youngest, and they have different mothers, that has fans wondering if his kids have a close bond.
Is Billy Joel's Oldest Daughter Alexa Joel Close With Her Much Younger Sisters?
Over the last several decades, different kinds of families have become a lot more socially acceptable. As a result, it has become much more common for people to have step-siblings, half-siblings, adopted siblings, and siblings that are a lot older or younger than them.
In Hollywood, there are several pairs of celebrity siblings that have huge gaps. For example, Vera Farmiga is 21 years older than her sister Taissa and Kim Kardashian is 17 years older than Kylie Jenner.
Fortunately for all four of those women, it seems pretty clear that they have a close bond with their siblings. Sadly, however, just because some siblings with a huge gap are close doesn't mean that there aren't a lot of brothers and sisters in that situation that don't get along.
When Billy Joel's youngest daughter Remy was born, she had a sister named Della who was just over two years older. On top of that, Remy had a half-sister named Alexa who is more than thirty years older than her.
Given the fact that there is such a huge age difference between Alexa and her two younger sisters, they missed out on some of the situations that a lot of siblings go through. Most notably, Alexa and her sisters obviously didn't grow up together.
Since growing up together is one of the things that bond a lot of siblings together, Alexa easily could have a distant relationship with her younger sisters. On top of that, since Billy Joel divorced Alexa's mom and had his other daughters with another woman, that could result in some resentment.
As of the time of this writing, there is no way for the public to definitively know how often Alexa gets to be with Della and Remy or if they are especially close. That said, based on all the public information, it seems very clear that Alexa loves her two youngest sisters.
The first piece of evidence that Alexa has nothing but love for her sisters comes from when Della was born.
After Della entered the world, Alexa went on Instagram to welcome her much younger sister. First off, Alexa announced Della's birth on Instagram.
"Celebrating the arrival of my precious little sister this week// With Pop and his Darling's happiness at their peak // As long as you are growing in love and loyalty // You're cultivating a life worth more than royalty. #ShamelesslySentimental #SappyBigSis #MySiblingsAreTheGemsOfMyLife'"
The next day, Alexa once again celebrated Della's birth. Alongside photos of her kissing Della's forehead and of her holding her younger sister, Alexa posted a short poem about her little sister.
"An Angel On Earth.... starting from birth: Introducing my brand-new little sissy, The Darling....... 🌟DELLA ROSE🌟 'Sweetest little baby, everybody knows'......"
Two years later when Alexa's youngest sister was born, she yet again announced the news on Instagram. Alongside a photo of herself holding Remy with her dad Billy's hand around her shoulder, Alexa wrote about welcoming her youngest sister into the world.
"🕊🕊🕊 And now, fast-forward to a little over two years later: they just delivered another precious bundle of goodness by the name of REMY ANNE!~🕊🕊🕊"
Since Alexa's two youngest sisters were born, she has posted photos and videos of her much younger siblings on social media. On top of that, the family patriarch, Billy, posted a family photo with all of his daughters together.
Based on everything that is known about Alexa, Della, and Remy, it certainly seems like they share a sweet family bond.
Who Are Billy Joel's Daughters?
Since Billy Joel is such a celebrated artist, it makes sense that the media has revealed who his three daughters are.
When Billy Joel married Christie Brinkley in 1985, it is very safe to say he was the envy of people all over the world. A much-celebrated supermodel, Christie has always been described as one of the most beautiful people of her generation.
Months after they walked down the aisle together, Billy and Christie celebrated as they welcomed their daughter Alexa into the world together.
In the past, Alexa revealed that when she was a child, she had no idea how famous her parents were. That clearly has changed since then since Alexa has become a model and singer who has performed onstage with her dad and taken part in photoshoots with her mom.
After Billy and Christie got divorced in 1994, he went on to marry the cookbook author, TV host, and food critic Katie Lee, only for them to also part ways. Then, Billy married a woman named Alexis Roderick in 2015, and they have been together ever since.
In 2015, Billy welcomed his daughter Della into the world. Just like Alexa, Della once joined her famous father Billy onstage where she sang his song “Don’t Ask Me Why” to a crowd that seemed to love every second she was performing. Finally, Billy's daughter Remy was born in 2017.
