I know a thing or two about age differences amongst siblings . Between my youngest and eldest brother, there’s nearly a nine-year difference. It happens in Hollywood all the time.
To prove it, I’ve compiled a list of 10+ celebrity siblings with large age gaps. They’re a shining example of the bonds of family and the strength that comes from togetherness .
Kevin and Frankie Jonas.
That’s right — there’s a bonus Jonas brother! Kevin is the oldest in the group at 33-years-old.
There’s a whopping 13-year age gap between the two. That means that when the Jonas Brothers Band first began performing, Frankie hadn’t been born.
Rosanna and David Arquette.
You’ll probably remember Rosanna Arquette from films like Pulp Fiction and Nowhere to Run .
Her younger brother David is more than 12 years her junior . Despite their difference in age, the two have always been extremely close.
James and Dave Franco.
James Franco has been a force to be reckoned with for more than twenty years and his younger brother Dave is hot on his trail.
There’s a little more than a 7-year age gap between the two of them.
Evan and Tracee Ellis Ross.
Evan posted this throwback via his Instagram in celebration of his older sister Tracee’s birthday. As you can see, the siblings have been tight-knit since the time Evan was a kid.
Tracee was 16-years-old when Evan was born.
Nicole and Sofia Richie.
Is anyone else clamoring for a reboot of The Simple Life ? I know I am. Nicole and Sofia are the daughters of legendary singer, Lionel Richie.
There’s a 17-year difference in age between them, yet they’re still the best of friends.
Demi Lovato and Madison De La Garza.
Demi and Madison have always been close, despite having 10 years between them.
In the wake of Demi’s accidental overdose, Madison posted a touching picture of the two of them and made sure to thank Demi’s doctors and the hospital staff.
Ariana and Frankie Grande.
Frankie Grande may not be the most famous person on the planet (unlike his sister) but he’s still a talented broadway actor/dancer, as well as one of the greatest Big Brother contestants who ever played the game.
He’s 10 years older than Ari.
