Melissa Etheridge Is 'Still Finding Kids' From David Crosby as Sperm Donor


Melissa Etheridge opened up about choosing the late David Crosby as her sperm donor for two oldest kids

Etheridge and her now-ex Julie Cypher welcomed daughter Bailey and late son Beckett in 1997 and 1998, respectively, with Crosby as their legal sperm donor. The “Come to My Window” singer revealed that her kids call him “Bio Dad” because he is “the biological father, but they didn’t need a relationship with him.” (Her son Beckett died in 2020 of an opioid overdose.) Etheridge shared her own message via social media, writing, “I am grieving the loss of my friend, and Bailey’s and Beckett’s biological father, David.”
