Katy Lee Carroll meets father Jimmy Barnes in Queensland
Katy Lee Carroll recently met her biological father, Australian rock star Jimmy Barnes, for the first time. She learned about her true parentage five years ago, after believing another man was her father for most of her life. Carroll, who is now 37, had spent years searching for her real father. She finally connected with Barnes in February 2020, just before a Cold Chisel concert. Since then, she has been welcomed into the Barnes family. Barnes publicly acknowledged Carroll as his daughter in December 2023, sharing their story on social media. Carroll expressed gratitude for the family's acceptance and emphasized the importance of privacy as they build their relationship.
