Legendary Singer Tony Bennett Has Passed Away, Leaving Behind Four Children

On July 21, 2023, the world said goodbye to one of the greatest singers of all time — Tony Bennett. The music legend, whose career spanned eight decades, died after a battle with Alzheimer's disease. He was 96 years old.

Thanks to his decades of singing in the jazz world, the "I Left My Heart In San Francisco" vocalist cemented his legacy as a musical icon. However, many of Tony's fans don't know about the personal legacy that he leaves behind, which includes his family and his children. Tony has spent years in the spotlight, but he's also been a father.

Read on to learn more about Tony Bennett's four children.

Tony has been married three times. His first marriage was to Patricia Beach, who he married in 1952. When the two were married, thousands of fans gathered outside the cathedral in mock mourning because Tony was officially off the market. Tony and Patricia had two sons, D'Andrea, who went by Danny and was born in 1954, and Daegal, who went by Dae and was born in 1955.

Tony and Patricia separated in 1965, citing Tony's constant time on the road as one of the reasons for the end of their marriage. In 1969, Patricia sued Tony for adultery, and the two were officially divorced in 1971.

Following his separation from Patricia, Tony became involved with actress Sandra Grant, who he quietly married in 1971. Tony and Sandra had two children together: Joanna, born in 1970, and Antonia, born in 1974. They were married until 1983.

After his second divorce, Tony found a partner who would last him the rest of his life when he met Susan Crow in the late 1980s. The couple had no children but were together for decades and quietly married in a civil ceremony in 2007.

Tony's four children have all had an impact on his life. His eldest, Danny, produced much of his father's music in more recent years, and he is also a father himself. Dae, meanwhile, followed in his father's musical footsteps. He works as a producer, audio engineer, and drummer, and has earned 20 Grammy nominations throughout his career.

Joanna made a name for herself in Hollywood working as a stunt double. She's done stunts on a number of high-profile films, including Aquaman, Captain Marvel, Justice League, and Wonder Woman.

Antonia also followed in her father's footsteps, and has become an accomplished jazz singer in her own right. She's also dabbled in acting, and has had roles in films like Changeling and Always Here for You.

Tony's publicist Sylvia Weiner confirmed his death to multiple outlets, stating that he passed in his hometown of New York City. There was no specific cause of death, but Tony was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2016.
