Australian singer & songwriter, Nick Cave’s Son, Jethro Lazenby died at the age of 31. NME reports confirmed the news.
The news was confirmed in a statement to NME from the Bad Seeds frontman, “With much sadness, I can confirm that my son, Jethro, has passed away. We would be grateful for family privacy at this time.”
Jethro was born in Melbourne in 1991 and only learned that Cave was his father aged eight. He became a model after being scouted out while in the city but had also tried his hand at acting, with roles in 2007’s Corroboree and 2011’s My Little Princess. He’d also worked more recently as a photographer.
Last month, Jethro was jailed following an assault on his mother, Beau Lazenby, in Melbourne, Australia.
