While his father is in the entertainment industry, his mother, Dorothea Hurley, is a karate instructor with her own dojo. In addition, she co-runs their family chain of community restaurants.

Joining an already large family, Romeo's parents were already very experienced in caring for babies. Raising him was no longer challenging for them, unlike when they had his only sister, their introduction to parenthood.

Despite having a celebrity dad, Romeo still grew up with fond memories of playing with his father. He would team up with his elder brother Jesse to play two-aside football.

Their team of two would play against their father, who would team up with his immediate older brother Jacob, and their dad would always let Romeo's team win.

Romeo Jon Bongiovi & His Family Love to Spend Time with Each Other

Romeo's family is now more tight-knit than ever. The pandemic was a blessing in disguise for them as they had the opportunity to be together for one month.

While they love spending quality time together, his older siblings now have careers to focus on, and their lives away from home meant there were only a few chances to get together.

However, they quarantined together in his childhood home, Jon Bon Jovi's mansion, and enjoyed time with each other. At the time, Romeo was a high school student in Manhattan.

Despite their love for each other, Romeo's parents can't wait for him to graduate and go to college so they can enjoy being empty nesters.

His mother, Dorothea Hurley, revealed that she could not wait to graduate from high school for the last time as this will mean not working around a schedule and having the opportunity to travel with her husband.
