On the other hand, Xavier's dad said his stepbrother Evan has an outgoing personality.

While fans enjoyed the reality show, Xavier's father said their children weren't comfortable with having cameras in their homes. He said if they were to do another reality show, it would be about him and his wife.

In an interview, Xavier's father said his son doesn't like publicity, and he couldn't even mention his name on TV because he would get mad at him. Despite his son's strict conditions, the singer gave some details about Xavier's life and that at 17, he was 6'2" and had a girlfriend.

While there are very few photos of Xavier as an adult, when he was younger, he attended the "Scooby Doo" premiere and walked the red-carpet event alongside his father.
