All about Billie Piper’s children as actress opens up about idea of them becoming famous
In the last thirty years, Billie Piper has gained widespread recognition for her work in both acting and music. In addition to her successful career, the actress and singer is a mother to three children. In a recent interview with The Observer, she discussed her children and shared insights into their lives.
In regards to her portrayal as producer Sam McAlister in an upcoming drama about Prince Andrew’s Newsnight controversy, she declared:
“They almost stop seeing you as a member of the family, and suddenly maybe all their friends want to talk about is their famous relative. It really affects the social network, the fabric of everything.”
In addition, she stated:
“That’s why the idea of my children becoming famous makes me feel sick – not that they are showing any interest, but I would do everything in my power not to let them go near that until they’re adults.”
Winston and Eugene are the two children from Billie’s first marriage with her ex-husband, Laurence Fox. Additionally, she and her former partner Johnny Lloyd also share a child.
The Family of Billie Piper: A Look at Her Three Children
During an interview with The Observer, Billie Piper opened up about various aspects of her life, including her children. Her ex-husband Laurence Fox is the father of her two sons, Winston (12) and Eugene (8). Additionally, her former partner Johnny Lloyd is the father of her daughter, Tallulah (4).
Eugene and Winston were born during her marriage. In 2008, Tallulah was born, ushering in a new era of love and co-parenting for Billie and Laurence Fox.
Billie revealed that she got pregnant soon after her marriage. Despite ultimately requiring an emergency C-section, she still expressed that she had enjoyed the entire birthing experience.
In October 2011, Billie Piper had just accepted a role in the play Reasons To Be Pretty when she found out she was 15 weeks pregnant with her second child. Her son, Eugene, was born on April 5, and Billie had been 15 weeks pregnant when she learned the news.
In July 2018, it was announced that 35-year-old Billie and her partner of two years, Johnny Lloyd, were expecting their first child together. A girl was born and she was named Tallulah.
Moreover, Billie has admitted that she continues to struggle with the pressure of fame in her career, stating that it can sometimes result in physical illness and severe depression.
She went on to explain that growing up in the public eye from a young age meant that she was accustomed to fame and it was all she had ever known. Therefore, she was determined to do whatever it takes to protect her children from going through the same experience.
During her appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show in March 2024, she revealed that her children have not shown much interest in her work or fame, at least not yet.
During the same event, Billie Piper also expressed her thoughts on the matter and recognized that her eldest child is not interested in the spotlight and the glamorous life that comes with being a celebrity, something that Billie values.
The release of Billie Piper’s latest Netflix film Scoop has caused quite a stir. The movie depicts the behind-the-scenes story of how the women of Newsnight were able to secure Prince Andrew’s infamous 2019 interview about his association with convicted s*x offender Jeffrey Epstein.
