Alicia Dove recently responded to redditors’ claims about Corey Taylor’s relationship with his daughters on X.
As part of a discussion about Taylor’s allegedly estranged relationship from his eldest and youngest daughters, one post read, “He did have a daughter with his ex, Stephanie. She was born not long before he and her split, but I really wouldn’t put it past Corey to have already been far deep into Alicia before the separation. Everything happened in 2017, and I can’t find a timeline, but coincidentally it was also the first year Slipknot toured with Cherry Bombs.”
Captioning a screenshot of the chat, Dove wrote, “…as we just texted first daughter mentioned and saw her at Knotfest Iowa, and I took second daughter mentioned to school two days ago… God, some of you are f*cking stupid. Unless it’s from the source, never believe what you read on the internet.”
“Also, as much as caity [the comment’s owner] thinks she is ‘in’ our lives, she needs to understand people like her were not privy to when they split, or when he and I started dating unless we said it,” she further added. “I believe he did an IG post about that when we became public so go do your research girl.”
Corey Taylor has three children: daughter, Angeline, from an old relationship, son, Griffin, with his first wife Scarlett, and another daughter named Ryan from his second marriage to Stephanie Luby. He previously discussed his bond with all of them during an interview on ‘Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown.’
In the 2022 interview, Taylor explained that he had Angeline at a young age while dealing with addiction. “It wasn’t until the first time I got sober that I really was able to be in her life,” he shared. “So, I didn’t come into her life until she was about 11. And even though we have so much in common, and we look exactly the same, which I keep apologizing to her; I’m, like, ‘I’m so sorry.’”
“I was her father but I wasn’t her dad, and I have all the respect in the world for her stepfather. You try to develop the best relationship you can. And it’s been up and down over the years. Right now it’s down. But at the same time, you have that love, and that love is always gonna be there.”
The singer’s relationship with his 9-year-old daughter Ryan and his 21-year-old son Griffin are reportedly in a better place, though. Griffin, a musician himself, currently plays in his own nu metal band Vended, which Taylor supports.
