Oh, to be a lover.

Billy Idol is addressing the realization that he fathered a third child.

During a recent interview with iNews, the 69-year-old singer shared that his discovery of a secret son, Brant, who was born in the 1980s, wasn’t entirely unexpected given his past promiscuous lifestyle.

He admitted with a chuckle, “Maybe I was a bit surprised, but when I reflected on it, I figured something like this might happen. We spent the 70s and 80s engaging in countless casual encounters with numerous strangers.”

“A lot of people in the rock world got children beyond their usual relationships,” Idol added.

For most of his life, Idol believed he was the father of only two children: son Willem Wolfe Broad, 37, with former partner Perri Lister, and daughter Bonnie Blue Broad, 35, with ex Linda Mathis.

But thanks to a 23andMe DNA test, Bonnie discovered her half-brother Brant a couple of years ago. The “Dancing with Myself” singer found out he fathered Brant with a woman during his 1985 “Rebel Yell” tour.

When asked if he’s considered he could have other children out there, Idol told iNews: “I think we would know about them now if there were.”

The father-of-three also revealed that Brant works in construction.

“We’re quite good friends, and I love him. He’s a nice guy,” he said about Brant.

Idol, who has four grandchildren, explained that he’s now able to be more present for his family.

“I’m all set up for that. I’m in a better place in my life,” he stated. “In lots of ways, I’ve done everything I wanted, at least to my own satisfaction. And now I’m not a drug addict, I can really be there for them.”

Idol first introduced his secret son to the world in 2023 when Brant joined the rest of the family for Idol’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony.

Bonnie spoke about the journey of learning about Brant and welcoming him into the fold in Idol’s “Billy Idol Should Be Dead” documentary, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this month.

“My husband just surprised me with a 23andMe, with a DNA test as a Christmas present,” Bonnie shared in the doc. “And then a few weeks later, I get the results back on the app and open it and I’m like, who is this? This Brant. And it says his info’s like, New York, 1985, looking for my bio dad. I was like, ‘What?’”

Brant, who was raised by a man he believed was his biological father, explained in the doc that his mom eventually told him about her encounter with Idol.

“I was like, ‘Mom, is there a chance Mark might not be my biological father?’ And she’s like, ‘Well, it’s pretty crazy, but back in the day, we broke up and I actually spent a weekend with Billy Idol,’” Brant recalled.

Brant also said that Idol treated him like his son after the truth was revealed.

“He’s definitely showed me a lot of love,” Brant added, “so I’m blessed.”
