Famous Celebrities Who Were Part of the Children of God Cult

The Children of God, later known as The Family International, began in the late 1960s and spread through communal homes around the world. It mixed apocalyptic teachings with aggressive proselytizing and drew in thousands of followers, including families who worked as missionaries across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia. Over time the group became known for controversial practices and has been the subject of numerous memoirs and investigations, as well as public testimony from former members who left and built careers in music, film, journalism, literature, and sport.
This list brings together well known figures who were born into or spent part of their childhoods in Children of God communities or who joined as adults. Each entry focuses on verifiable details about their connection to the movement and on the concrete milestones of their careers and public work after leaving, based on interviews, profiles, court and archival records, and first person accounts.
