Sting Reaffirms He Won’t Leave His Fortune to His Six Children

He frames work as a kindness that fosters independence.

Overview

  • In a CBS Sunday Morning interview, the 74-year-old said he will not bequeath his wealth and will instead fund schooling and basic needs.
  • He called telling a child they never have to work “a form of abuse” and said work builds character.
  • Sting said his children have a strong work ethic and that he covers education and early starts but not lifelong support.
  • His six children have careers of their own, with Joe in music, Fuschia and Mickey acting, Jake directing, Eliot DJing as Vaal, and Giacomo joining London’s police in May 2024.
  • The stance matches what he told People years earlier, and new coverage has amplified the view without detailing any will or legal plans.
