The legendary Donnie Simpson is known for being many things, including the former host of BET’s “Video Soul” show back in the day, as well as a decades-long radio personality, which he still is today. Behind the scenes though, he’s known as a true family man, with a wife of 44 years, Pam Simpson, their two children, and several grandkids and in-laws.
It’s his love of family that adds to the mass appeal he’s maintained for decades, as an honorable celebrity both on and off camera. Following the revelation of his family photo however, it’s also something that has now become a great conversation starter for many of his fans.
Meet Donnie Simpson’s Son
A while back we introduced all of you, in our I Love Old School Music fam,’ to Donnie and Pam Simpson’s son, Donnie Jr., who is also a well known a pastry chef and the owner of Uprising Muffin Co. in Washington, D.C..
At one point Donnie Jr. followed in his Pop’s footsteps and worked in the radio industry as a producer on his dad’s radio show on WPGC in Washington D.C.. After WPGC made the decision to attract a younger audience, Donnie Sr. and Donnie Jr. said ‘Peace out’ to the station in 2010 and that’s when Donnie Jr. decided to follow his other passion and so far business has been booming for the brotha and his wife.
