Who are Billie Eilish parents?

Patrick O’Connell (father)

Date of birth: July 7, 1957

Billie Eilish has been interested in music since she was 8. Although the teen sensation didn’t plan to become professional, she got great training as a musician – mostly due to her father, who is a big fan of music. Patrick listened to recordings of various genres – starting from Beatles and ending with Avril Lavigne. He taught his son Finneas and daughter Billie to love music and in addition let them become homeschooled, so they had enough time to make their music experiments.

Patrick O’Connell knows how important it is for an artist to have enough time for creative work. That’s because he is busy in the entertainment industry, too. He is an actor, known by roles in the movies “Iron Man”, “The West Wing” and others.

Patrick fell in love with acting in his young years, which he spent in Norwalk, Connecticut. He moved to Los Angeles, when decided to pursue acting as a career. There he resides till now with his wife Maggie and their two children.

Maggie Baird (mother)

Billie’s father taught her to understand music, while her mother inspired her to create it. Maggie is a unique personality, who develops her own creativity – and helps her daughter and son create theirs.

She rose to fame as a singer, songwriter and voice actress. Maggie spoke for the heroine of a role-playing video game “Mass Effect 2”, named Samara. Not long ago the woman co-wrote the movie “Life Inside Out”, where she starred in the company of her husband and son.

Really, Maggie can be proud of what she’s doing, but she is even more proud of the family she created. In her interview to “Your Teen” magazine the woman told, that they don’t lead a typical “Hollywood” lifestyle. Of course, each member of their family is a busy person, who visits auditions, takes part in new projects, but if they have some free evening, surely they gather around a dinner table and enjoy the meal in the circle of closest people.

By the way, Billie Eilish still lives with her parents in their cozy, but not big house in LA. The teen star resides with her parents in two-bedroom home.

Maggie and her husband made up a difficult decision to let her kids study at home. She explained, that such a kind of getting education helped her kids to hear themselves and to understand, what their calling was.
