The parents of Finneas and sister, Billie Eilish have both worked in the movie industry and that is a sticking point for critics that want to credit a “family connection” with the success the pair have had. Finneas had enough and recently clapped back at a troll in order to set the story straight.
During my life time, our parents were never able to fully financially support us off of their work as actors. Our dad worked 12 hour days 7 days a week as a construction worker for Mattel and our mom was a teacher. Our parents gave us love but knew no one in the record industry https://t.co/DuC2UjymQX
