Daniella Rose Rucker is one of Darius Rucker's three children and proved the apple did not fall far from the tree when it came to her singing abilities. Despite her father's fame, the 22-year-old tends to steer clear of the limelight.

Darius Rucker is widely known for being the lead vocalist and guitarist of the rock band Hootie & the Blowfish, which he founded in the 1980s. Over the years, the rock star and his ex-wife welcomed two children, the oldest of which is their daughter, Daniella Rose Rucker.

Daniella Rose Rucker and her siblings have proven they inherited their father's impressive singing abilities. After collaborating with her father, the 22-year-old garnered much praise for her beautiful voice.

The Origins behind Daniella Rose Rucker's Name

Darius and his then-wife, Beth Leonard, welcomed Daniella on May 16, 2001. Their bundle of joy was born in Charleston, South Carolina. In 2016, Daniella's father shared a picture of her and Dan Marino, revealing she was named after the former Miami Dolphins quarterback.

Darius and Beth's eldest child attended the University of New York, and in 2020, Daniella's father took to Instagram to share a snap of her under the Big Apple snow. He proudly captioned the post:

"Dropping this wonderful human being off at ⁦@nyuniversity. Dani I love u so much. And u make me proud beyond words!!! Go be GREAT!!!!!!!!"

Daniella barely had a social media presence at the time of writing. However, fans have caught glimpses of her on her famous father's social media. On April 23, 2016, her father documented their family trip to Universal Orlando Resort. A few months later, Darius and his children smiled for a photo while visiting Lynn University.

On May 16, 2016, Daniella's father turned to Facebook to celebrate her birthday and shared, "Another birthday at the DMV with this special girl. Happy birthday baby!! I love you Dani." Daniella hit the red carpet the following year at the 52nd Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas with her famous dad, mom, and younger brother.

Daniella's parents broke the news of their separation on Instagram on July 11, 2020.

To pass the time during the pandemic, Daniella and her father joined forces and created the song "I Don't Love You Like That." While her father was the mastermind behind the track's production, Daniella was on lead vocals.

"She gets it from her Daddy," one person tweeted, and another humorously shared, "Wow! What a great voice! And that guy singing background vocals isn't too bad either."

A third social media user commented, "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Great voice!" and a fourth shared the same sentiment: "Wow! Another Rucker and another awesome voice!"

Before Daniella's birth, Darius welcomed his eldest daughter, Cary, and in 2018, he took to Instagram to celebrate her college graduation. Cary is also a talented singer, and she used to post covers of songs by Ed Sheeran, Alessia Cara, and more.

Daniella's younger brother, Jack — whose father proudly celebrated his 18th birthday last year — also caught the singing bug and has released multiple songs on Spotify.

"We remain close friends and parenting partners and continue to be each other's biggest cheerleaders. Our priority will always be our beautiful family."

Darius Rucker opened up about his divorce earlier this month and revealed that while it hurt, he and Daniella's mother were still a family. The singer added that while all his children were gifted singers, Daniella and Jack were looking to follow in their dad's musical footsteps.
