Elijah and Grace are likely childhood friends. Bono and Turlington were reportedly close friends in the 90s and early 2000s. A 2003 report from People even claims the U2 frontman gave Turlington away at her wedding to Burns and also sang at the ceremony.

Elijah is the second youngest of Bono and Hewson's four children. The childhood sweethearts are also parents to Jordan, 34, Eve, 31, and John, 22. Elijah told GQ in 2020 that his parents weren't initially supportive of his decision to pursue music. "At the beginning they weren't really [supportive.] I mean, they wanted me to go to college, you know, like all of our parents. I think they just kind of saw that I loved it and that we were good," he said. We're sure, however, that the band's ongoing success has made Bono and his wife very proud parents.
