The singer of “Man! I Feel Like a Woman” and her ex-husband Mutt Lange had a baby together.
Though Shania Twain has always kept her son, Eja, out of the spotlight, and now that he is grown up, he prefers to keep it that way, the singer made a worthwhile exception with her latest social media post.
The star shares one son, Eja D’Angelo Lange, 21, with her ex-husband, Robert “Mutt” Lange. Shania and the music producer married in 1993 and welcomed their son in 2001. They divorced nine years later, in 2010.
Though not much is known of Eja, and he has made little to no public appearances as an adult, he left fans in awe when he resurfaced in a star-studded photo with his mom.
Shania took to Instagram a photo featuring the star-studded attendees of her latest Queen of Me Tour – her first in six years – after performing at Los Angeles’ classic Hollywood Bowl.
While many fans were impressed to see the “Man! I Feel Like a Woman” hitmaker posing alongside major A-listers such as Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, John Travolta, his daughter with Kelly Preston, Ella Bleu, plus Shania’s husband Frédéric Thiebaud, it was the rare appearance from Eja that took fans by surprise.
In the photo, the star-studded group is in Shania’s dressing room. While she is standing next to John holding up her pet pomeranian, her son is next to her and looks already much taller than his mom, wearing black cargo pants, a black zip-up hoodie over a white t-shirt, plus a trucker hat over his long, red-blonde hair.
“Nothing better than love & support from friends at the @hollywoodbowl,” Shania wrote next to a string of red heart emojis.
As soon as they learned of the unusual sighting of Eja, her followers commented on the post, saying, “Shania, this is the first time I’ve ever seen your son!! ” “That’s some very good company there!” and “Eja has his mother’s smile,” as well as “He’s so handsome and looks so much like you, his dear mother.” Another admirer added: “How many renowned people are in one pic! Quite cool! They are all lovely folks.”
Like his mother and father, Eja is working toward a career in the music business. Most recently, he worked with Shania on the song “Number One” off her most current album; he is listed as a songwriter on the pop tune.
It’s a step in the right direction for him to follow in the footsteps of his father, who worked with his ex-wife on several of her biggest singles, including “Man! I Feel Like a Woman,” “That Don’t Impress Me Much,” and “Any Man of Mine.”
Along with Eja, Shania also has Johanna, her stepdaughter, who is Eja’s age. She is the child of Frédéric, the former spouse of the “Giddy Up” singer. After their prior partners had affairs and the pair separated from them, they were married in 2011.
