Bad Habits Passed Onto His Children
Paul Sr. definitely had the biggest personality among the cast members of American Chopper, but he had his demons as well. He had been an alcoholic for 15 years before checking into rehab. Even though he hated it, he did it to save his marriage. He got sober later in life, but he had passed on the bad habits he had to his children by then. Finally, at 16 years old, Paul Jr. checked into rehab.
Almost A Happy Family Again
Paul Sr. and Paul Jr. may have parted ways amicably, but their relationship did not magically fix itself. It was hard for the young man to allow his overpowering dad to come back into his life. Then, in 2015, Paul Jr. welcomed his first child. People were glad to see a photo of Paul Sr. together with his grandchild. The baby boy was named Hudson. If you are wondering when he will take his first motorcycle ride, we don’t think it will take that long. Choppers run in the kid’s blood, after all.
