Yes, Brandon, who was born in 1981,  is Caitlynn Jenner's son. Yes, he is the brother of Brody, Kylie and Kendall Jenner. But what does he do? Well, he is a musician (of sorts). But mostly he is a creature that inhabits reality TV land. He and brother Brody did Princes of Malibu. It was okayish.

He was married to Leah Felder, whose dad was the guitarist for the Eagles way back when. They had a pop group called Brandon and Leah. Alas, it didn't last. The divorce was messy, messy. He's moved on and he and his girlfriend Cayley Stoker are expecting twins.

1 Jake Hoffman - Actor, Writer, And Director

It happens a lot. Children of Hollywood stars do a couple of movies or TV shows and forevermore call themselves "actors". Jake Hoffman is the exception to this trend. He has actually had a pretty busy acting career.

His father is, of course, Dustin Hoffman. The two have acted together once or twice. Jake was born prematurely. And no one thought he would survive. Obviously, they were wrong. Quite sweetly, his dad decided to name him after the Raging Bull character boxer Jake La Motta. Why? Because he is a fighter.
