Lil Durk is currently awaiting a verdict in his federal murder-for-hire trial, but his life outside the courtroom has also drawn attention because of his blended family.
The Chicago rapper is reported to have seven biological children, Angelo Banks, Bella Banks, Zayden Banks, Romeo Banks, Du’mier Banks, Skylar Banks and Willow Banks. He became a father at 17 and has children with several women. He also considers India Royale’s older daughter, Skylar, part of his family.
Durk has spoken about his children in interviews and shared family moments on social media. The number can be confusing because he has also described his family more broadly, including his bonus daughter, India Royale’s older daughter Big Sky, and the two children of his late brother, Dontay “DThang” Banks Jr., whom he has helped raise.
