Billy Idol Mourns the Passing of His Mother, Joan Broad
Billy Idol took to social media to mourn the passing of his mother, Joan Broad.
Idol wrote, “Sad news my Mum, Joan Broad, passed away peacefully Sunday 16th of August 4:10 UK time. My sister, Jane, and I were lucky to have such a lovely Mum who was both caring and compassionate.”

We send our sincere condolences to Idol and his entire family during this difficult time.
