Diana Ross is an entertaining icon. She rose to fame as the lead singer of the Supremes during the 1960s and has since found worldwide fame and success as a singer, actress and overall entertainer. As a member of the Supremes, Ross was part of one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time, with hit songs including "Where Did Our Love Go," "Baby Love," and "Come See About Me."

In 1970, Ross left the Supremes and started her own career as a solo artist, finding work in music, film, television and on stage. Some of the songs she released as a soloist include "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" and "Upside Down." As far as her work in movies goes, she appeared in "Lady Sings the Blues" in 1972, a film for which she recorded the soundtrack. Ross also appeared in "The Wiz" in 1978.

It's clear that Ross has shown that she has an endless array of talents, and she has earned plenty of praise and recognition over the years. She has several No. 1 hits, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

At 77 years old, Ross has a lot to be proud of, including all of her accomplishments and all of her five beautiful children, including her son Evan, who has grown up to be very successful and handsome. Ross is also a grandmother. All of Ross' children have ventured into the entertainment industry and have proven that their mother's talents truly run in the family genes.

While Ross is undoubtedly one of the most iconic performers in the music industry, she is also a wonderful mother to her five children and is also a devoted grandmother. She dated Berry Gordy, who fathered one of her children. She broke up with him while two months pregnant with Barry's child and married Robert Silberstein. Ross had two children with Silberstein before divorcing him in 1977.

The entertainer then dated Gene Simmons, renowned guitarist and singer of Kiss, for three years. She is believed to have been instrumental in breaking up Simmons' relationship with Cher, although all parties involved have given contradictory stories about the break-up.

After breaking up with Simmons, Ross went on to marry Arne Naess, a Norwegian businessman involved in shipping. The couple had two sons together but divorced in 2000 after rumors surfaced that he had fathered a child with a different woman during their marriage. Naess died in 2004 in a mountain climbing accident.

Ross' five children are Rhonda, Trace Ellis, Chudney, Ross Naess and Evan. They have all chosen to work in entertainment, with everyone going into acting except for Chudney, who is a producer. Evan also works as a musician as he grew up surrounded by some incredible music.

Speaking with AALBC, Evan talked about how his father, Naess, is from Norway, so he can speak "very little" Norwegian. He also explained how he lived in Norway for quite some time, as well as other places like Switzerland, Greenwich, Connecticut, New York, Los Angeles, London and France.

Evan made his acting debut in the comedy-drama film "ATL," and has since gone on to appear in "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1" and "Part 2." He has also appeared in "90210." The talented man became engaged to singer Ashlee Simpson back in January 2014. They tied the knot in August that same year at Ross' estate in Connecticut. Evan and Simpson have since had two children together.

Evan has also collaborated with his famous mother. In November 2021, Music News reported that Ross worked with Evan and Ross Naess on her single "All Is Well" and its music video. "My sons gave me the confidence and encouragement to make this video," Ross explained. "After spending almost two years not performing and not being in front of the camera, they supported me in easing back into being around lots of people… I am filled with appreciation for the work that they all did to make this happen."

While Ross has clearly shown just how much she loves and cares about her children, the feeling is definitely mutual. In 2015, Evan spoke with the Inquirer about how he feels about Ross as a mother. He said:

"She's the most amazing person I ever met. I am inspired to be like her. I am a fan of hers, like an actual fan, even though she is my mother. When she walks in, there's an energy that fills the room. There's nothing like it. It doesn't matter where she is. You can feel her in the room."
