6. Tom Jones

British singer Tom Jones is another famous musician to become a teen dad. He left school when he was 16, and found out that his childhood sweetheart, Melinda Trenchard, was pregnant with his child the year after. The couple got married one month before their son, Mark, arrived into the world.

At this point, Tom hadn’t had his big break yet and was working in a paper mill to support his family. But soon after Mark was born, he quit his job and joined a local band called Tommy Scott and the Senators, which turned out to be the break he was waiting for all along!
