Jon Bon Jovi is close to his family

On several occasions, Jon Bon Jovi has revealed the great positive influence that his parents have had on his musical career. Even in an interview with ‘The Big Issue’ in November 2020, the singer recalled the following:

“Even if you weren’t really good at your craft, if you believed you were, you could work at it. As I grew older, I realized that was a great gift I received from my parents.”

On another occasion, Jon Bon Jovi explained how his parents supported his dreams from an early age, allowing him to perform concerts at the age of 17:

“They always supported me, which in retrospect, is amazing. Because I could get home at one or two in the morning and still have to be at school at eight o’clock. They would just say, get to school on time, you know that’s your responsibility, but pursue your dream.”
