Country music singer-songwriter Darius Rucker has accomplished a lot in his 58 years on this planet. Above all, the multi-talented artist treasures his former wife Beth Leonard and his kids Carolyn, Daniella Rose, and Jack. Sadly, Darius and Beth announced their decision to ‘consciously uncouple’ while remaining close friends and parenting partners in July 2020.
Darius Rucker’s Children
Carolyn Pearl Rucker
Carolyn (born April 21, 1995) is the 29-year-old daughter of Darius and his former girlfriend Elizabeth Ann Phillips. In May 2018, she graduated from college! Like her famous father, she also enjoys singing and covering popular songs.
Daniella (born May 16, 2001) is Darius and Beth‘s eldest child together. Yes, she was named after famous football legend Dan Marino! The 23-year-old is currently in college and attending New York University.
Jack Rucker
Jack (born October 27, 2005) is Darius and Beth’s youngest child and the star’s only son. The 19-year-old is wild about golf and often plays with his father! He also lives with his dad in Nashville and recently got his driver’s license.
“If they were to ask me what I wanted them to do singing would be the last thing I would want them to do. Go be an engineer. Go be a doctor. Go get a real job. Get a family and live a great life…” Rucker revealed in a past interview with Life of Dad.
As for what he wants for his three children, it’s simple— have faith and be good people.
“That love of God is so important. My kids are great kids. I always stress to be good people. Be good to others. For me I tell them that it is easier to be nice than to be a jerk. I say it to my kids all the time. That is one of the things that I remember from growing up. My mom said how important it was to be a good person. That is one thing that I truly try to put into their lives. It is just second nature. It is to be nice and help folks,” the South Carolina native sagely explained.
