‘Dog the Bounty Hunter’ discovers he has a 13th son

“Dog the Bounty Hunter” revealed in an Instagram post he recently “discovered” he has another son.

“Dog,” whose real name is Duane Chapman, posted a tribute to his first wife Beth on the fourth anniversary of her death. In doing so, the 70-year-old shared he has another son.

“For the last four years, this day was a terrible reminder of one of the greatest losses of my life,” said Chapman, whose wife Beth died from throat cancer in 2019. “But God redeemed this day when I discovered my son Jon, who I just met recently, was born on this day.

“So now instead of sorrow, this day has a new meaning. The whole story of Jon is told in my new book, ‘Nine Lives and Counting,’ coming SOON. For anyone who has suffered a terrible loss, please know God restores and redeems.”

“Happy birthday son, love you both,” Chapman concluded.

Including Jon, Dog is the father of 13 children from his previous marriages and relationships.
