Is Jonathan Berkery Tom Jones’ Son?

Jonathan Berkery has made headlines for a number of reasons in recent years.

Mostly, Jonathan has made headlines as the son of famous Welsh singer Thomas Jones Woodward OBE, better known as Tom Jones

Katherine, Jonathan’s mother, petitioned the court for justice and explanations from the singer after he reportedly abandoned Katherine and Jonathan back in the 80s.

The court ordered a DNA test, which proved that Tom was the real father of Katherine’s son.

Katherine went to court in 1989 and got $2,500 per month in child support.

Even though Tom paid Katherine and their child what he owed them financially, he never used his parental authority and became a part of Jonathan’s life.

Despite the fact that everything has been verified, the singer still refuses to have any contact with his son.

Jonathan has experienced his father’s absence since he was a small child. Throughout the years, he made repeated unsuccessful attempts to communicate with his father.

Furthermore, the artist refused to recognize Jonathan as his son for years, and it took him three decades to finally speak about it.

Unfortunately, Jonathan’s refusal to accept Tom Jones’ invitation to be a part of his life did more harm than good. When Jonathan was ten years old, he finally realized his father would never be a part of his life.

Who Is Jonathan Berkery’s Mother?

Katherine Berkery, Jonathan’s mother, is a former model who rose to prominence as Thomas Jones Woodward OBE’s whirlwind romance.

Katherine was born in Korea in 1963.

Her parents abandoned her when she was eight years old due to personal conflicts.

She was later adopted by a wealthy family who raised her in New Jersey.

During her teens, she worked as a model and appeared as one of the Club Girls in the 2006 short film Picture Perfect.

Because she never spoke much about her life, very little is known about it.

During that time, she was known as Tom Jones’ short-lived girlfriend, and after she sued him, she became a household name.

She currently works as a real estate agent, according to reports.

Katherine Berkery and Tom Jones’s Relationship History

Tom Jones, who was known as the “Ladies Man,” said he was intimate with more than 200 women.

Katherine was one of his brief relationships.

On October 29, 1987, while on tour in the United States, Tom Jones met Katherina in one of the restaurants he visited. She was employed there.

Later, Tom invited her to see his show, and she accepted.

After the show, the two went out to dinner before heading to the Ritz-Carlton in Manhattan for three nights.

Katherine found out she was pregnant after nearly three months.

When she approached Tom, he absolutely refused to engage in conversation with her.

Instead of tackling the situation, he separated from her and went about his business.

As a result, it was made plain that it was only a fling on Tom’s part and nothing serious.

During an interview with Daily Mail in 2018, Jones said,

“It wasn’t something I hadn’t planned. I would have done more than just financially if I had planned it. but it wasn’t. I just fell for it. I just fell for the seduction.”

Jonathan Berkery’s Siblings and Half-Sibling

Jonathan has a half brother named Mark Woodward, who was born in 1957.

On the other hand, Tom Jones only has a legitimate son with his late wife, Melinda Trenchard.

Tom and his son, Mark, are 17 years apart in age; thus, they are more like brothers than fathers’ sons.

Mark worked as a manager for his father.

However, Jonathan and Mark have never met, and there is no relationship between the two.
