the kids of Gilmour

Post by carefule eugene »

In the Gdansk-diary you see David tell to Lech Walesa that he has 8 kids.
Does anybody know the names of them?
I think one of them is Charlie (at the end of The Division Bell there is a telephoneconversation with him) but what are the names of the others?

from Wikipedia:

Gilmour's first marriage was to American-born Virginia "Ginger" Hasenbein and he had four children from this union, Alice (born 1976), Clare (born 1979), Sara (born 1983), and Matthew (born 1986). [...] He has four children from his second marriage to Polly Samson - Charlie (Samson's son with Heathcote Williams) whom Gilmour adopted and Joe, Gabriel and Romany.

Thats the real reason why there was no Pink Floyd after 1994. To many kids.

That is a hilarious moment, because Lech makes a comment about what a stud David is...

That is sacred, but then he shouldnt have put footage of them on every single bonus documentary and sell millions of copies of it.
Plus, he mentioned his kids in allmost every interview he had in 2006.

Yeah, I've got to admit I feel uneasy about how he pushes his kids out into the public eye like that. They're still very young and deserve to grow up as anonymously as they can in the circumstances.

Which is why we shouldn't discuss them. I can talk about my daughter all I want, but I don't want others writing about her in forums. It's about respect.

There's not a lot we can say about them anyway. Thankfully, we don't know much about them, unlike other celeb kids. Having said that, Polly and Charlie featured in this article in the Guardian last year.

Hmmm, that actually made interesting reading - though I doubted a little of the professed 'honesty' in the lad's responses.

Hehehehe.......*devious grin*

Funny thing about that clip too is that Lech says "the only manly thing I do these days is shave!" :lol:
The look on David's face hearing that is priceless!!
Then David points to the side where Joe and Gabriel are sitting and he says with a grin: "these are number 6 and 7" :lol:
