Axl Rose parents: Meet Sharon E. Rose, William Bruce Rose

The oldest child of Sharon Elizabeth, who was 16 years old at the time and still in high school, and William Bruce Rose, who was 20 at the time, Axl Rose was born in Lafayette, Indiana. The pregnancy was unintended, and his father has been said to as “a troubled and charismatic local delinquent.” When Rose was about two years old, his parents divorced, which prompted his father to kidnap and allegedly molested Rose before fleeing Lafayette. When his mother remarried, she gave her son the new name William Bruce Bailey.
