He said, “I’m on the stage tonight. But the most important thing is I want to thank all of my friends, my family, Miles, Sofie, Nicole. The grandkids. Lisa, my heart. I want to thank them for actually sitting through my magical mystery tour. And I want to let everyone know that I am probably not coming home for quite a while. I’m in love with this business. I love what I do. Thank you so much for this amazing moment.”
Lionel has three children including 41-year-old Nicole Richie from his two previous marriages to Brenda Harvey and Diane Alexander. He now has several grandchildren as well.
