Meet Perry Farrell’s Kids: Yobel, Hezron, and Izzadore Farrell
Yobel Bernstein Farrell, born in 1998, is the eldest son of Perry Farrell, who is 26 years old as of 2024.
Despite growing up surrounded by fame, he tends to keep a low profile and has not actively pursued a career in entertainment like his father, Perry.
Yobel’s middle name, “Bernstein,” reflects his father’s Jewish heritage, a nod to Perry’s family background.
He also has two younger half-brothers, Hezron Wolfgang, and Izzadore Bravo Farrell.
Perry has mentioned in interviews that he values the time he spends with Yobel, showing the strong bond they share.
Yobel was acknowledged in one episode of the 2000 TV series VH1 Storytellers, which credits his father, Perry Farrell.
Unlike his siblings, who have shown an interest in music, Yobel seems to have taken a different route.
Hezron Wolfgang Farrell, born in March 2002, is Perry Farrell’s first child with Etty Lau Farrell.
Hezron has occasionally appeared alongside his father at concerts and festivals, including Lollapalooza.
Growing up in a musical household, he has shown an interest in the creative arts.
He has been part of family jam sessions, suggesting that music may be in his future.
In 2020, he graduated from his high school.
Hezron, 22, is a left-handed musician who has already begun performing at shows.
Izzadore Bravo Farrell, born on October 9, 2004, is the youngest child of Perry and Etty Lau Farrell.
On the occasion of his 16th birthday, Perry wrote on X.
Like his older brother, Izzadore has been immersed in the music scene from an early age.
At 18 years old, he is still exploring his artistic talents.
In 2021, Izzadore had nerve damage but has since recovered.
In March 2008, Perry Farrell attended the Alvin and the Chipmunks DVD release with his wife, Etty, and their sons, Hezron and Izzadore.
Later, in October, he took them to a party at the John Varvatos store in Malibu, and in March 2009, they attended the Stuart House Benefit together.
These appearances highlight the close-knit family environment that Perry has fostered​.
