But one of his children from his first marriage, Darryl White, has launched his own music career and you won’t believe his voice. Clearly he has inherited his father’s base-baritone voice, but that’s not all.
Darryl White bears a striking resemblance to his father and even dresses like his father.
White’s son from his first marriage hit the headlines back in 2017, claiming to be broke and practically homeless because he hadn’t received money owed to him from his father’s estate, according to TMZ.
It was reported that he was suing his father’s widow, Glodean White, after realizing he wasn’t getting the promised amount of money that his father allegedly left in his testament.
