‘Dad used to take us to school in his dressing gown’: Bono’s daughters Eve and Jordan Hewson recall their father ‘dancing in traffic to Backstreet Boys’ as they reflect on ‘intense’ upbringing
He’s best known for being the frontman of U2.
But Bono is also a doting dad to four children; Jordan, 21, Elijah, 23, Eve, 31, and Jordan, 33, – who have fond memories of childhood with the musician.
In a new interview, his daughter’s Eve and Jordan have recalled their dad ‘taking us to school in his dressing gown’ and embarrassing them with sing-a-longs to Backstreet Boys.Â

Bono shares his four children with wife Ali, who he tied the knot with back in 1982, before welcoming their brood.
And talking with The Times, Eve and Jordan sweetly looked back on their famous upbringing – which saw them on the road with the band.Â
Describing it as ‘intense’, the pair were growing up in the early days of Bono’s massive success as they went along with him on the ride.
But it wasn’t all fame and glamour, as they explained to the publication that their parents tried to keep life ‘as normal as possible’.

‘Dad used to take us to school in his dressing gown, God bless him’ recalled Jordan.
She continued; ‘One time we were in traffic on Rock Road and he got out the car and started dancing in the traffic to Backstreet Boys. Mortifying at the time, but I commend him for it now.
Touching on life on the road as a youngster, Jordan continued that it was ‘an adventure’ but also difficult to ‘share’ their dad constantly.

U2 were formed in 1976 as Bono joined The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr to created the group.
With just two years between Bono’s two eldest children, the sister duo are inseparable – with Eve admitting they are ‘infatuated’ with one another.
Describing their younger brothers, who were born around ten years after the duo, the pair described it as ‘Hewson A and Hewson B’, with themselves being the former.
But despite the gap, the family are famously tight-knit and even lived together as a six during the Covid-19 pandemic.Â
