Not All Celebrity Children Love The Limelight! Here Are The Star Kids That You Probably Didn’t Even Know Existed

Becoming famous comes with its own baggage of having every little detail of your life exposed to hundreds or thousands of people, depending on how famous you are. It’s not always the most comfortable position to be in at times but it’s one thing to become famous slowly and gradually which gives you ample time to adjust to the new life and it’s completely another to be born famous. You are forced into a life you did not choose and everyone may not be able to adjust well.

Whereas some celebrities like Beyonce are extremely expressive about having kids to the point of sharing pregnancy and postpartum body photos, some prefer to keep it under covers in an attempt to give their children a normal life away from the limelight. Here’s a list of those celebrities:

The stars managed to keep her out of the spotlight and she was rarely seen at any public events with them. Only once did the couple posted a picture of their daughter on Instagram to show her their love on her 17th Birthday. It is possible that they waited for her to be old enough before they deliberately brought the world’s attention to her.

It’s hard to not be brought to the media’s attention when your father is the King Of Pop. Still, his son Blanket Jackson has managed to stay from it all whereas his other siblings: Paris and Michael Joseph Jackson Jr, have gotten plenty of attention. He must have his reasons for keeping away from the limelight and everyone ought to respect that.

1. Bob Dylan:

Not many people knew that the king of music and his former wife Carolyn Dennis had a daughter. Her birth was kept a secret in the hopes to give her a normal childhood.

Growing up in a world where one is constantly reminded of their inadequacies is hard enough. If you top that with having a parent who is famous, it can exert quite a lot of undue pressure on someone young and impressionable.

We can only imagine what it’s like to constantly live under the shadow of one’s parents and always finding people compare your achievements compared to theirs. It is understandable that these celebrities like all parents wanted to protect their children from scrutiny as much as possible.
