The Secret Father Of This Actor

This handsome actor has worked consistently since he was a teen. He is now one of the stars of a dramatic, patriotic TV series. The show has already been renewed for next season.

We found out something that has never been mentioned in Actor’s bio or in any interviews with him. He is actually the secret son of a famous rock star!

His mother was a groupie decades ago and had a relationship with [Rock Star]. The whole family knows that [Rock Star] is his father, but he’s just not a part of their lives. [Actor] is a very defensive about it. He says that his mom did just fine raising him and they are good on their own. If you try to ask him any questions about [Rock Star], he’ll shut you down. He hates talking about it. They don’t need [Rock Star] to give them money or to help them in any way.

The Actor and the Rock Star not doppelgangers, but when we put photos of them side by side, we were stuck by about half a dozen physical features (e.g. their eyes, their noses, their smiles, the same unique chin) that seem to be more than just a coincidence.

What makes this really shocking is that the Rock Star in question is not some crazy, irresponsible druggy. He is a well-loved icon who grew up in a middle-class family and is now a family man. He loves his wife, his kids, his sports, and performing for an adoring fan base that never gets tired of his classic songs.

While we would love to see some sort of family reunion between the Actor and the Rock Star, it’s their lives. After all, an admission of paternity after so many years could prove to be a slippery slope!

Lucas Till, McGyver??

Patriotic series: Madame Secretary or Designated Survivor?

So, Actor: Tim Daly or Kiefer Sutherland?

Rock Star: no idea

R7 you might be right (it’s Mike Vogel)... the guy does look like Springsteen.

Mike Vogel looks NOTHING like BS

Vogel grew up with a dad as well as a mom, didn't the BI say that the mother and the child were "on their own"?

by Anonymousreply 12April 18, 2018 12:04 AM

Uhhh, R5, Kiefer Sutherland ie the spitting image of his father, actor Donald Sutherland.

by Anonymousreply 13April 18, 2018 12:09 AM

For some reason, I immediately thought of Blake Jenner and Springsteen. Jenner has always reminded me of BS for some reason. I looked at his wikipedia page, and it doesn't mention anything about his father.

r14 again. I forgot that the blind said he was in a series. My bad.

You're right, r13. My bad. And Daly doesnt look that much different from his father, without the weight gain of his later years.

r17, also the last sentence uses the phrase "slippery slope", and Bon Jovi's most famous album was "Slipper When Wet"

^ I meant "slippery" when wet

R18 Blind also says “it’s their lives...” Bob Jovi song: It’s My Life. So it’s Bon Jovi... who is the actor?

Jesus, back to the fictional blind items. Do people really not see that these are made up?

Not that many dramatic shows have been renewed for another season, including most of the ones mentioned. It would be helpful to know if the show is network, cable, or streaming.

by Anonymousreply 22April 18, 2018 1:09 AM

A patriotic show already renewed should be easy.

Somebody from SWAT or Seal team? They have already been renewed at CBS.

It's obviously Melanie Griffith. And her rockstar father is Andy Griffith.

This is the kind of thing you can expect from that website.

There are only 600 channels to check for “patriotic shows.”

R21, They may be fictional but they're as realistic as the majority of crap gossip thrown around here as factual gossip. No, I'm not OP.

r32....the answer is John Kasich of Ohio......years ago when he was running for congress he was outed by his opponent......she lost and he was able to squelch the stories....but its Kasich

by Anonymousreply 33April 18, 2018 2:47 AM

Interesting.

Kasich was married from 1975-80, then was single for 17 years before he married his current wife.

What info are you basing that on, R33?

by Anonymousreply 35April 18, 2018 2:54 AM

Agree that the clues point to Jon Bon Jovi, who previously owned an area football team. ( "The Rock Star loves his sports") Here's a photo of Jon in his mid-20s...what TV actor on a patriotic series looks like him?

Im in Ohio....also google is your friend....though he suppressed most of the stories, you can still find one or two.....Its not that big of a secret. Here is a fairly recent article discussing the "rumors"......but theyre not rumors, and were talking years ago.....

also....the article above claims they dont know where the rumors started and why they just popped up in 2016.....but like I said, His political opponent outed him in their congressional race years ago.....but everybody already knew......and the "boyfriend" they referenced living with him was indeed his boyfriend...as well as his chief of staff i believe......

Max Thieriot on the Navy CBS show

by Anonymousreply 39April 18, 2018 3:04 AM

Agree that its JBJ, but still searching for the son. I don't watch any patriotic TV shows.

by Anonymousreply 40April 18, 2018 3:05 AM

Max Thieriot is a good guess, if JBJ is the father. He resembles JBJs other children somewhat as well. He fits most of the clues, although I don't know his family situation.

Someone on the Blind Gossip site said Will Estes. He was born in LA, looks like him, and the poster mentioned he and his mom has been in one of JBJ's music videos. Series is Bluebloods.

Will Estes bio says he was born in 1979. That's way before Bon Jovi hit it big. But he does look a bit like him.

Will Estes played JBJ in the 2000 video for "It's My Life."

I doubt he'd be playing his own secret father if it really was, well, a secret.

R21 is correct. I was a jr. editor at a ent. mag back in the 90s.

We had a blind items page. No one wanted to screw over the celebs they interviewed so the items were always made up.

They'd be reworked to change the sex, the coast the actor lived on and what they even did all in an attempt to protect the star.

By the time the item would run, fellow editors who gave the initial lead wouldn't even recognize the item.
