Melissa Etheridge’s daughter found new siblings from late biological dad David Crosby
More than a year after David Crosby’s death, Melissa Etheridge is reflecting on the “generosity” he showed in helping her start a family in the 1990s.
In an interview with People magazine published Tuesday, the “Come To My Window” singer, 63, opened up about why the late rock icon was the “perfect” choice for her and then-partner Julie Cypher, who share 27-year-old daughter Bailey Jean Cypheridge. Their son, Beckett Cypher, died in 2020 at age 21 of an opioid overdose.
They had just had help having their son and they appreciated that. They wanted to pay it forward,” Etheridge said. “We’re still finding kids from David Crosby out in the world. My daughter’s like, ‘I have another half-sister.'”
