The Tragic Life Of Country Music Icon: Shania Twain

Who’s Your Daddy?

When Shania was born, she was given the name Eilleen Regina Edwards; her life was pretty tough from the start. When she was just two years old, her parents Sharon and Clarence Edwards split up. She never saw her biological father growing up, and he didn’t keep in touch. She doesn’t acknowledge him much because he was never around, and she said that she had “never known him.”

Although she was young when her parents divorced, soon after, her mother Sharon married a guy named Jerry Twain, a member of the Ojibwa tribe. Jerry adopted Sharon’s three daughters, and four-year-old Eilleen became Eilleen Twain.
