Days before her birthday, Jon Bon Jovi’s mother Carol Bongiovi passed away.
She was dubbed a “force to be reckoned with” by the singer.
JON Three days prior to being eighty-three, Bon Jovi’s mother, Carol Bongiovi, passed away.
Jon, 62, spoke empathetically about Carol following her death on Tuesday at Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch, New Jersey.
Jon told PEOPLE, “Our mother was a force to be reckoned with; her spirit and can-do attitude shaped this family.”
“We will miss her terribly.”
Carol, a former Playboy bunny, founded the fan club for her son’s band.
She met her future husband, John Bongiovi, Sr., after she enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in 1959.
After relocating, they reared their children in Sayreville, New Jersey.
Following that, they relocated to Holmdel, New Jersey, where she lived until her passing.
It was reported that Holmdel Funeral Home will oversee Carol’s private funeral.
Her three children, Jon, Anthony, and Matthew, as well as her 63-year-old husband, will miss her.
Jon has previously stated that when he was a child and desired to be a musician, his parents provided him with “incredible support.”
In November 2020, he said, “Even if you weren’t good at your craft, you could work on it if you thought you were,” to The Big Issue.
“As I grew older, I realized how wonderful my parents’ gift to me was.
“They genuinely believed John F. Kennedy was directing them to travel to the moon.” “You can go to the moon, of course.” Just go, John. I visited that place.
The performer told about how his parents used to take him to concerts when he was seventeen.
When Jon was seventeen, his parents allowed him to perform at events, which allowed him to pursue his aspirations.
“They were always there for me, which was amazing looking back,” he remarked.
“Because I could have to be at school at eight o’clock and get home at one or two in the morning.”
“They just told me to go to school on time, you know that’s my responsibility, but follow your dreams.”
The girl Jon fell in love with in high school, Dorothea Hurley, is the wife he married.
Together, they are parents to three sons, Jesse, Jake, and Romeo, and a thirty-one-year-old daughter, Stephanie.
Model Jake wed Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown in a tiny, private ceremony in May 2024, according to the first story from The Sun.
The parents of Millie and Jon attended the little wedding.
He expressed his excitement for the wedding to The Sun the week prior.
“My grandchildren will have more English ancestry than Italian or any other heritage I may have” That must be absurd, right? The musician screamed.
“Your kids are married and talking to you about having grandchildren all of a sudden? Wow!” In my book, this is the longest chapter.

Following her abdominal surgery in January, the Princess of Wales took a step back from royal duties. However, she has been actively involved in overseeing a U.K. study commissioned and funded by her Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood. This study aimed to test the feasibility of a new baby behavior observation tool.
A spokesperson from the Palace stated to the Telegraph newspaper on March 21, «The Princess has been kept updated throughout the process.»
She must be very busy now.

The 10-month study concluded with «overwhelmingly positive» results, according to the Institute of Health Visiting, which conducted the trial. On March 21, the group reported their findings. They researched the effectiveness of the Alarm Distress Baby Scale (ADBB) and its shorter version, the m-ADBB, in evaluating infants’ social behaviors during routine health visits.
Results showed that the health workers who participated in the study rated both training programs highly and acquired «additional knowledge and skills» for explaining their observations.
Kate has always been passionate about research and philanthropy related to children, especially since she shares three kids, Prince George (10), Princess Charlotte (8), and Prince Louis (5), with her husband, Prince William. In 2021, she launched the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, building on her Early Years charitable initiative that she debuted two years earlier.
The Palace previously mentioned that Kate wouldn’t return to public duties until after Easter following her surgery in January.

The Palace, which had previously stated that the princess was unlikely to resume public duties until after Easter following her surgery in January, provided a brief update amidst ongoing discussions about Kate’s recovery and activities. Despite her absence from the public eye, there have been occasional sightings, such as a couple resembling Kate and William photographed at a farm shop in Windsor on March 16.
Despite recovering from surgery, Kate Middleton remains dedicated to her charitable work, even from home. Recent sightings with William show she’s on the mend.
This latest update about Kate comes after major news and photo agencies removed an official, edited picture of her and the kids, released by Kensington Palace, citing that it did not meet their editorial standards. In response, Kate issued a rare statement, which we covered in another article.
