Bee Gees star Maurice Gibb’s ‘secret son’ hits back at Lulu’s ‘curious’ claims the late star conceived him during their two-year marriage

by

As a longtime fan, I’ve been following this story closely. It’s really sad to see this happening now, but I want to say that the man claiming to be Maurice Gibb’s son has publicly denied Lulu’s accusations that her late husband was his father. He’s essentially saying those claims are false, and it’s a difficult time for everyone involved.

Last week, 77-year-old Scottish singer Lulu surprised listeners of The Louis Theroux Podcast by suggesting that Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees might be her son’s father. She told Theroux this was a possibility even though she was married to another famous musician at the time.

Lulu, age 77, revealed to Louis Theroux that she recently discovered definitive evidence proving musician Robin Gibb secretly fathered a son during a short-term relationship. Lulu and Gibb separated in 1973 and did not have any children together.

Following the discussion, Nick Endacott-Gibb, age 57, claims he was born two years before his parents, Lulu and Maurice, became a couple.

Nick shared with the Mirror that he was born in April 1968, and his parents conceived him in August 1967. Lulu and Maurice didn’t marry until 1969, following a famously fast-moving romance that’s been talked about for years.

Lulu, were you and Maurice a couple? Two years isn’t a very long time to be swept off your feet. I’m just as interested as your mother is in knowing if Maurice was with her around the time I was born. It was the summer of love, you know!

Lulu told Louis she believes her ex-husband has a son, possibly conceived during their marriage. She recently discovered this information.

Someone told me a story about a man who had a one-night stand and later had a son with the woman. Genetic testing has definitively confirmed that he is the father; the son’s DNA proves he is related to a man named Maurice.

Maurice passed away in 2003 at his home in Miami after suffering a heart attack. He had two children, Samantha and Adam, with his second wife, Yvonne Spenceley.

In 2019, Nick, who was adopted as an infant, stated he is the biological son of British performer Patti Nolder. This claim followed a DNA test that showed a ‘100 percent match’ between Nick and Patti’s son, Adam.

Nick, who also plays music, mentioned that some family members continue to doubt what he’s saying.

He expressed frustration that some family members were still questioning his DNA test results from two years prior, instead of focusing on his music, which he felt clearly demonstrated the truth.

Nick spent his life searching for his birth parents, and in 2003, he finally met Patti. He learned she had worked as a studio manager with the Bee Gees, and was close to the band members – Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb.

I’ve always been fascinated by family histories, and Nick’s story is a compelling example. He grew up in Ashdown Forest, a lovely part of East Sussex, always believing his dad was Chris Andrews, the singer from the Sixties band Fleur de Lys. But, like so many people exploring their roots, he decided to take a DNA test in 2009, and it turned out that wasn’t the case. It just goes to show you, sometimes what we think we know isn’t the full story!

After learning from Patti’s sister that Gibb might be his father, he underwent three facial recognition tests. The results strongly suggested a family connection, with one test showing a 95.2% match.

Gibb’s widow Yvonne refused his request for a DNA test, despite years of begging. 

Nick was surprised to learn that Adam, Gibb’s son, had already submitted his DNA to Ancestry.co.uk years before. After Nick sent in a saliva sample for a genealogy test, the website was able to confirm a match, finally giving him the information he was looking for.

When asked about the possibility that her husband, Louis, had a child with another woman, Lulu explained she hadn’t bothered to find out the child’s birthdate, stating it simply wasn’t a concern of hers.

She admitted she used to be far too serious. ‘I know it’s surprising to hear,’ she said, ‘but I really think that was the case.’

It’s tough on yourself when you don’t allow for mistakes or see things as simply right or wrong. Life is full of nuance, and I’ve learned that through experience.

I’ve experienced both incredible successes and difficult times, just like everyone else. I’m a normal person in that way – I’m not any different from anyone else.

I’ve always been driven by curiosity and a need to understand things. I think that’s been a key factor in helping me navigate the challenges and successes I’ve experienced throughout my life.
