The secret celeb siblings who shunned fame… from Osbourne ‘hermit' to Delevingne sister who's real brains of the family
Loading the Elevenlabs Text to Speech AudioNative Player... SIBLING rivalry can be fierce - but imagine if your brother or sister was a world famous celebrity? That's the case for Aydan Nix, the secret half-sister of Bella and Gigi Hadid, who only met her supermodel siblings for the first time less than two years ago. 17 17 Her mother had a brief romance with Bella and Gigi's multi-million dollar property tycoon dad Mohamed, but Aydan's connection to the family was kept under wraps for more than two decades, with her father not providing financial support. Aydan, 23, grew up in Florida with a different man whom she believed was her father, until he died when she was 19, prompting her to take a DNA test and discover she was in fact a Hadid. The sisters confirmed on Thursday that they'd met their half-sister, saying they have "cherished this unexpected and beautiful addition to our family'. Adyan's case is pretty unusual, in that she had no idea of her showbiz connections until recently, and with her striking looks it wouldn't be surprising if she too began to carve out a star profile of her own. Snaps of the trio show them frequently enjoying trips to the beach together and nights out in swanky New York City nightclubs. But other siblings of famous stars often prefer a life out of the limelight, happy to live in their relative's shadow. Here we reveal the secret celebrity brothers and sisters you probably had no idea existed. Chloe Delevingne Her youngest sister Cara is one of the most famous supermodels and actresses in the world, while her other sister Poppy, 11 months her junior, has also made waves on the catwalk for brands like Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton. But there's no doubt Chloe Delevingne, 39, is the brains of the family. While her sisters were posing up a storm, Chloe was studying biomedical science and tumour biology at the illustrious University College London. Bella Hadid's see-through dress was 'shocking' for 'sophisticated and elegant' Cannes – she 'should've dialed it down' 17 17 Chloe used her medical background to co-found the Lady Garden Foundation charity, which aims to raise awareness for gynaecological health. She's also been training to become a midwife, telling Cotswold Life in July 2023: 'It's hard but good and very rewarding. 'I think if you can help any woman when she is at her most vulnerable to have the birth she wants then there's a lot to be gained.' The three sisters also launched a vegan prosecco brand together in 2020. The Gallagher Sister 17 17 Given the Oasis brothers have only just managed to make it up with each other, it might not come as a surprise that they don't have the best relationship with their secret sister, who grew up round the corner in Burnage, Greater Manchester. Emma Davies, 51, was born just months after Liam in the very same hospital. She shares their dad Tommy, who had an affair with Emma's mother June. Despite this, the Oasis rockstars have reportedly refused her attempts to make contact and have never met each other. 'I would like to meet them. Obviously you're going to want to meet your brothers,' she previously told MailOnline. It was her buying the album (What's the story) Morning Glory that prompted Emma's mum to tell her the truth about who her father was. 'When she... saw the CD she said, 'I think you'd better sit down, I've got something to tell you.' I was completely flabbergasted,' Emma recalled. She last met her father in 2006 when she was 32, but his unstable nature quickly led them to become estranged again. The Oasis bandmates have also been estranged from their father for years, with Noel saying in 2019 his dad 'doesn't mean anything to me'. The Oasis rockers also have a lesser-known older brother, Paul Gallagher, who keeps out of the spotlight but has a close bond with them both. He revealed in a recent interview: 'I speak to the pair of them. I see Liam every other day." He has previously opened up about the pair's infamous public rift, saying: "I do my own thing, I stay away from it as much as humanely possible." The Osbournes - plus one 17 17 The Osbournes essentially paved the way of the Kardashians with their no holds barred, fly-on-the-wall reality show back in 2001. But while Sharon and Ozzy's kids Kelly and Jack welcomed the MTV crew into their lives, their older sister Aimee decided to opt out. At 16 she moved out of the family home, though later confessed she would have liked to stay a 'little longer'. 'Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television?' she said. Now 40, she still keeps her private life under wraps, and has been dubbed the 'hermit' of the family. She has, however, followed in her father's footsteps with a career in music, and is currently lead singer of pop band ARO. She isn't exactly close with her sister, with Kelly telling the Dax Shepard podcast in 2023: 'We don't talk... We're just really different. She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her.' Aimee has echoed that sentiment. 'I wouldn't say there is an ease between us, but there is an acceptance,' she told The Independent. 'Do we socialise? No.' Fortunately she gets on well with her other sibling Jack - and together they're planning to produce a biopic all about their famous parents. The third Strictly sister 17 17 Strictly Come Dancing sisters Oti and Motsi Mabuse have revealed they have a secret third sister - who is the "best dancer" of them all. Their sister Phemelo, 39, who is the middle child of the family, keeps away from the limelight as she works as a mechanical engineer in South Africa. Nonetheless, the third sibling shares her sister's dancing abilities, keeping a toe in the professional dance world and competing at the World Dance Championships. Oti revealed on the Jonathan Ross Show: "To be honest, we have another sister, middle sister, she was the better dancer. "She's a mechanical engineer. She designs windmills which create electricity through wind in South Africa.' The siblings do occasionally post pictures together, however, and in their rare Instagram appearances, fans can't believe how similar the three are. Oti remarked that they all have the 'same nose' as one fan gushed they also have the 'same lips' and complimented them all as "beautiful". Scarlett Moffat 17 17 Famous on the telly for... watching the telly - there's almost an Inception-like feeling to Gogglebox. Out of all its ordinary people turned stars, Scarlett Moffatt is arguably the most famous of them all, especially after being crowned Queen of the Jungle following her stint on I'm A Celeb. While we've been watching her with parents Mark and Betty since she was 18, few will be aware Scarlett, now 34, has a younger sister, Ava, who is 15 years her junior. Fans did get a glimpse of Ava - now aged 18 and studying archeology at university - in season seven of Gogglebox. Scarlett has previously gushed over their close relationship despite the significant age gap, posting on her birthday: "Watching you grow up into the amazingly kind, intelligent, beautiful, bloody hilarious lady has been a blessing." The fourth Jonas Brother 17 17 Joe, Nick and Kevin together make up one of the most famous trios in pop music. But did you know that they could have been a quad? That's because they in fact have another brother, Frankie, who himself is a singer. He's also had some success as an actor, though nothing on the scale of his Camp Rock siblings. The 24-year-old launched a music career in 2023, and has since released two singles. And in typical Gen Z style, he's also starting to make a splash on TikTok. So could three become four? It might only be a matter of time. Doug Pitt 17 17 You might think being Brad Pitt's brother dooms you to a life as second fiddle. Fortunately his younger sibling Doug, has enjoyed plenty of success in his own right - just in an industry that's a lot more low-key than Brad's. The 58-year-old, who is married to wife Lisa and has three children, made a fortune of his own after selling a hefty stake of his computing company back in 2007. He's also a dedicated philanthropist, appointed the first ever Goodwill Ambassador for the United Republic of Tanzania in 2010 by President Jakaya Kikwete. And there's definitely no bitterness about having such a huge star as his older brother. In fact, he's even starred in a Virgin Mobile Australia advert portraying a comedic version of Brad as 'The Second Most Famous Pitt'.

From turning up in school uniform to possible £25m transfer, how Jobe Bellingham is stepping out of bro Jude's shadow
SIBLING rivalry is a rite of passage, but for the Bellingham brothers it has also formed the basis of their football careers. Jude, 21, has been hailed a generational talent — and now little brother Jobe is emerging from his 6ft 1ins shadow. 7 7 An exceptional talent in his own right, the 19-year-old attacking midfielder is being pursued by three German clubs and was part of the Sunderland team which was promoted to the Premier League on Saturday night. It came less than a month after the North East Football Writers' Association named him Young Player of the Year. Reacting to Jobe's part in Sunderland's historic win, ecstatic Jude posted a photo of a video call they had together, captioning it: 'SO F****** PROUD'. And chuffed Jobe told reporters: 'I always believed — you have to believe. 'When you've got supporters like this and a group of lads like that, you always have to believe.' Celebrating Jobe's win yesterday, Jude reposted a fan photo of the two brothers holding their respective trophies at Wembley, captioning it 'WemBelli'. The England International won the Champions League last year at the stadium with Real Madrid while his family watched. 'Demanding on the pitch' Given Jude's huge success, it's no wonder Jobe likes to make sure that his sibling stays grounded — by teasing him for being dependent on their mum. Denise Bellingham has followed her eldest from the UK to Dortmund in Germany, and then on to Madrid. 'Maybe if Jude could learn how to cook and drive, mum could come back and live with me — but nah, Jude is useless,' Jobe quipped in Out Of The Floodlights, a YouTube documentary about his brother's life in Spain. Jobe Bellingham takes swipe at Sky Sports pundits in live TV interview before awkward moment with panel at Wembley Jobe began his professional career at Birmingham City in 2021 — a year after his brother left the team. The 6ft 2ins powerhouse was the team's second-youngest player at 16 and 107 days old when he made his first team debut — only Jude started younger. We'd play on a Tuesday and he'd turn up in his school uniform. It was mad. He'd just played a game for his school, and then he was sitting on the bench for us Lee Bower, ex-Bristol City Manager Lee Bower, who snapped up both Bellinghams, saw Jobe as the 'baby' when he arrived on the subs bench. The former manager said: 'We'd play on a Tuesday and he'd turn up in his school uniform. It was mad. 'He'd just played a game for his school, and then he was sitting on the bench for us. He was very respectful and wanted to learn. His feet were on the ground. His parents are a big drive for him. He wanted to make his own name. 'The potential was there. The attitude was there. 'He's a nice, well-mannered boy but demanding on the pitch — he didn't shy away from anything. He has confidence, but not arrogance.' Jobe chose to use just his first name on his Black Cats shirt instead of his surname to distinguish himself from his brother. His former head coach Troy Deeney said it showed Jobe wanted to carve out his own identity, and constant comparisons to Jude were unfair. Troy told Sky Sports: 'Whenever people talk about Jobe, it's always 'Is he as good as his brother?' or 'Jude was doing this and that at his age.' ' Jobe is going to be successful — he already is successful. 'I don't think any of us could ever put ourselves in his shoes of being a young person trying to find himself in life, and then having a brother that's a world-famous superstar. 'No matter what you do, you're always going to be compared to that.' 7 7 Stepping out from his brother's shadow, Jobe signed to Sunderland for a cool £1million on July 14, 2023. Unfortunately, his brother unintentionally stole the limelight as Jude's move to Real Madrid was announced on the same day. For both Bellinghams, football has been a huge part of their life, as they grew up watching their father in non-league matches. Southend-born Mark, 49, scored 700 goals by the age of 40 at Midland League Division Two side Paget Rangers in 2016. The retired policeman is thought to have played in approximately 850 games but still describes himself as 'not very good'. He is fiercely proud of both his children, often reminding journalists 'I have two sons, you know' when they ask about just one. Mark lives with Jobe in the UK and does his best to keep the family unit tight despite the distance between them. The lads often fly to each other's games when their schedules allow, and their parents rack up air miles to spend time with both. After a spectacular performance this season, it appears Jobe might be following in his brother's footsteps yet again, as Jude's old Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund are eying up the youngster. 'That's Jobe, he's ours' German newspaper Bild reported that Dortmund are offering £25million to get the footballer on their books this summer. Jobe has also caught the attention of RB Leipzig and yesterday met with Eintracht Frankfurt. The teen's fancy footwork has even reached the ears of Real Madrid, thanks to his two goals in Sunderland's victory against Rotherham in August 2023. Recalling being taunted by his boss, Jude said: 'I'm in shock that he's scored twice and then as we're coming out, (Carlo) Ancelotti goes to me, 'F***ing hell, we bought the wrong one.' 'And I'm like, 'you're joking'. He says, 'No seriously, I'm going to bring him in.' 'I said, 'Well where are you going to play him?' He says, 'In your position.' I was like, 'F that!'.' Dad Mark will be keen to see Jobe stand on his own two feet and not just follow his brother's footsteps. Speaking in Out Of The Floodlights, he said: 'I want Jobe to have his day — finally, for someone to say, 'He's not Jude's brother'. 'We've got the Sunderland fans — no connection to Jude now — who can say, 'That's Jobe, he's ours'.' Mum Denise added: 'I just want to see Jobe on the pitch, in a Jobe shirt — not a Bellingham shirt — starting and having his moment. 'I want him to start and have his moment.' Off the pitch, the brothers don't talk about the beautiful game. In the series, Jobe said: 'I think every time I'm with my brother, I'm just laughing. 'We're just constantly making jokes. We barely really talk about football.' The brothers have been seen dining in Caribbean restaurant Turtle Bay in County Durham and Italian eaterie Romano's in Cleadon near Sunderland. They have also attended Louis Vuitton's show in Paris together, while Jobe has modelled for Adidas and Jude topless for Kim Kardashian 's underwear brand SKIMS. But Jobe has yet to emulate one aspect of his brother's life — a string of stunning girlfriends. Jude has been linked to Dutch model Laura Celia Valk and You-Tuber Azra Mian, and is now dating US catwalk star Ashlyn Castro. With Jobe's star on the rise, he won't struggle to get a stunning girl to have on his arm if he wants one. 7 7
