Who was Gerald Levert's Biological Mother?

Question

If you look on certain websites that have that Gerald Levert's mother name is Raquel Capelton (Eddie Levert's longtime girlfriend/ now wife as of 2005) and then on another it will say his mother name is Martha. So who was his biological mother?

Answer 1

Gerald Levert's biological mother is Martha Levert. She was formerly married to Eddie Levert and spoke during his public memorial http://www.wkyc.com/video/player.aspx?aid=28415&bw=. They were wed in 1966 according to some internet articles--"Levert was born to The O'Jays frontman Eddie Levert and his wife Martha in Canton, Ohio", (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Levert#_note-obit).

Also, you can read and watch another video of his mother (Martha Levert) speaking following his transition at http://www.wzzm13.com/news/watercooler/watercooler_article.aspx?storyid=65233.

In Jet Magazine, May of 2005, there is a picture of him and his wife of whom he recently married--Raquel Capelton.

I hope that this clarifies things for you.

Answer 2

Gerald Leverts' death should have been on the front page. Not only was he a R&B soloist and a man of class, but this man was the son of music legend Eddie Levert. To the person that said Gerald Levert was not well known---He was in the music biz over 15 yrs and performed with Levert, LSG & had a dynamic solo career. That Federline-Spears drama is old news.
