Who Is Malcolm McDowell's Son Who Left American Idol?

Beckett Rex comes from a famous family. His father is British actor Malcolm McDowell, who scored a Golden Globe nomination for his riveting performance in "A Clockwork Orange." Malcolm is the proud dad of five kids, per Us Weekly. In an interview with Closer, he gave some insight into his parenting style. Malcolm said, "I'm fairly strict but really quite a pushover. I once said 1 to my 14-year-old son, Beckett, 'Between me and Mom, who are you most afraid of?' He went 'Mom,' which made me roll with laughter!" Rex's mom is Kelley Kuhr, a visual artist. And his half-brother is Charlie McDowell, a filmmaker who's married to Lily Collins! There is clearly no shortage of creative genes in this family.

As far as his personal life, Rex seems to be head-over-heels in love with his girlfriend, Launa Fiorello Taylor. According to Us Weekly, the couple has been together since September 2021. Rex's Instagram features lots of adorable posts dedicated to Taylor. In a March 2023 post, he wrote, "Happiest of birthdays to this lovely person you make me the happiest boy alive and I love you with all my heart."
