‘Celebrity Family Feud’ Clay Aiken’s Son Makes His TV Debut
Clay Aiken’s son, Parker, made his television debut recently on Celebrity Family Feud. The 15-year-old was featured on the game show alongside his pops, and they look a lot alike. Continue reading to see the resemblance between the two.
Clay Aiken Introduces His Son On Celebrity Family Feud
Clay Aiken and his family were featured on the August 6 episode of Celebrity Family Feud. They went up against a fellow American Idol runner-up, Katharine McPhee Foster.
As fans will remember, Clay Aiken was the runner-up on Season 2 of American Idol. Katharine McPhee was the runner-up on Season 5.
On Celebrity Family Feud, Clay was excited to introduce his family to host Steve Harvey. Clay’s mom Faye, his brother Brett, his son Parker, and Parker’s mother Jaymes Foster were all standing alongside the Idol legend on the game show.
When he got to his son, Parker, he seemed with pride, informing Steve that he was making his television debut.
“What’s up,” Steve Harvey asked the 15-year-old as they fist-bumped. Clay Aiken also went on to share that there were people related to each other on both sides of the stage.
Jaymes Foster, Clay’s longtime best friend and mother to Parker, is David Foster’s sister. David is married to Katharine McPhee Foster, who was playing on the other team. However, Clay insisted Jaymes was on the right team.
Spoiler alert: Clay’s team won, earning $25,000 for the US National Inclusion Project. Fans were quick to gush over Clay’s son in the comments on social media. “You did a great job on Family Feud,” one fan wrote. “Your son looks just like you.”
Clay’s Son Has American Idol ‘In His Veins’
Earlier this year, Clay Aiken spoke to People about his son and the possibility of him choosing a music career. Although he said that Parker sings all the time, it isn’t something he wants to pursue. He has other interests.
Clay said of his son, “He’s chosen a different path. He has something else he wants to do with his life. And I’m excited for him.”
That said, Clay Aiken’s son still has several major connections in the music industry. Clay said that Idol is “in his veins.” His uncle David is a music producer, Aunt Katharine is a fellow American Idol alum, and his friend Ruben Studdard also made his mark on Idol. Each of them has been there for Parker throughout his life so far.
However, if his 15-year-old son changed his mind and wanted to sign up for American Idol today, Clay Aiken said he’d support him 100%. “I mean, I think that’s what you’re supposed to do is support whatever they want to do,” he said.
