Musician Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, is currently single after concluding a lengthy engagement. He is a father to his biological son, Robert James Ritchie Jr., whom he shares with a past partner.

Although frequently in the spotlight for his music and political stances, Kid Rock’s family life remains a more personal yet significant aspect of his narrative.

Kid Rock’s Wife and Marital Status

Currently unmarried, Kid Rock does not have a wife. He had a short-lived, highly publicized marriage to actress Pamela Anderson in 2006, which ended in a divorce by 2007. Later, he was in a long-term relationship with Audrey Berry, becoming engaged in 2017 after several years together. However, by early 2025, it was widely reported that their seven-year engagement had come to an end.

A source familiar with the situation revealed that the relationship concluded late last year, and Kid Rock is once again “exploring the dating scene.” Throughout their time together, he maintained a low profile about Berry, a non-celebrity, stating that he aimed to be less selfish by keeping her out of the public eye.

Meet Kid Rock’s Son: Robert James Ritchie Jr.

Kid Rock has one son, Robert James Ritchie Jr., often referred to as Bobby Jr., born on June 14, 1993. His mother is Kelley South Russell, Kid Rock’s former girlfriend. The singer took on the responsibility of raising his son from the age of seven after a paternity test confirmed his fatherhood.

In contrast to his rebellious public image, Kid Rock is a devoted father, enjoying a strong connection with his son. He consistently expresses pride in Bobby Jr., sharing that a heartfelt birthday message from his son “brought a tear to my eye.”

What Does Kid Rock’s Son Do for a Living?

Following in his father’s creative footsteps, Bobby Jr. has built a multifaceted career. He is an aspiring singer and musician who released his debut single in 2018 and has even collaborated with his dad on the 2022 track “Bad Reputation”.

He is also a fashion designer and entrepreneur, owning his own clothing brand called Skullfeather. Additionally, he works as a social media manager and brand ambassador for the seltzer company Happy Dad. He graduated from Belmont University with a degree in Music Business.

Kid Rock’s Grandchildren and Family Life

Kid Rock is a proud grandfather. His son, Bobby Jr., is married to his high school sweetheart, Marisa Trovato. The couple has two children: a daughter named Skye, born in 2014, and a son named Rider, born in 2022.

This means the “American Bad Ass” rocker has embraced the role of grandpa. While he keeps this part of his life relatively private, the family appears to be close-knit. Kid Rock has shared rare snaps with his grown-up son, and Bobby Jr.’s social media occasionally features photos of his own children.
