Because of his blended family, lil Durk is currently awaiting a verdict in his federal murder-for-hire trial , but his life outside the courtroom has also drawn attention.
The Chicago rapper is reported to have seven biological children, Angelo Banks, Bella Banks, Zayden Banks, Romeo Banks, Du’mier Banks, Skylar Banks and Willow Banks. His mother’s identity has not been publicly confirmed. He also considers India Royale’s older daughter, Skylar, part of his family . Durk has spoken about his children in interviews and shared family moments on social media. Durk’s son Zayden Banks was born a few months after Bella. Romeo Banks is also one of Durk’s biological children. BCK Online currently lists Romeo among Durk’s seven biological children.
He became a father at 17 and has children with several women. In October 2024, Zayden publicly defended his father following his arrest, writing that Durk was “a great father who has always supported and loved our family unconditionally. His mother, Travonna Craig, publicly discussed their son in 2022, and Durk has since acknowledged Romeo as his son.
The number can be confusing because he has also described his family more broadly, including his bonus daughter, India Royale’s older daughter Big Sky, and the two children of his late brother, Dontay “DThang” Banks Jr., whom he has helped raise. His daughter Skylar Banks, also known as “Baby Sky,” is another of his children. In his XXL interview, he described Skylar by saying: “Baby Sky crazy like me.”
