When talking to UsWeber said that her son and grandchildren also know and even a little close to Joel.
“I have my grandchildren that he knows and they know him,” he explained. “My granddaughter Ella learned Bill what Tiktok was and showed him what was happening. And his relationship with Sean is important to both of them.”
He added, “So we’re not far but we know, and he lives in Florida and I live in California. But it’s all good.”
Weber said that her son Sean and Joel were “very close,” adding that the three were “living at the top of the mountain during their wedding.
“We entertained each other,” he explained. “Bill and I worked all day and the whole writing process had never been made – in the years Bill and I were together – it wasn’t done remotely or (a) studio. It happened in our living room, and Sean was an integral part.”
