Hi all! Anyone happen to remember the names of all of Perry's kids? I'm pretty sure that he had at least 2 sons. But I only remember Jerry's name, because he is the only one of them to have screen time on the show.  Thanks in advance!

I don't remember his other son being mentioned by name in the show. In the comics, though, Perry adopted a boy named Keith Robert after Jerry was murdered. Andreia

I remember seeing a couple of days ago, while researching Luthor's family tree, that there was a Perry White Jr, but he was actually Lex's son.

Jerry (who's actual father is Lex - Yep, Alice cheated on him when Perry was a MIA war correspondent) and the above mentioned Keith Robert. Actually the history between Lex & Perry as described on this page is interesting and almost corresponds with the Lex & Clark relationship as shown on Smallville.

At first I thought it read that Alice Spencer was the reporter  And thought, was Alice like Lois Lane? But then I realized it was TWO headlines (the reporter being, of course, Perry). -- Wonder if she's any relation to Spencer Spencer?  :p Puts a whole different twist on "Lethal Weapon", doesn't it?

I actually always thought the same thing. For all of the 20-some-odd year olds that are Lex's sons, Lex doesn't look all that old! :p I guess he could be like 35 - 40 having had unprotected coitus during his mid - late teens to produce all of these sons that are basically the same age as the woman he almost married.

Or perhaps he teamed up with Tempus and did some time travelling? Now there's a scary thought. Joy, Lynn

I don't know. I wouldn't mind marrying a guy who's older. Most of the women in my family are married/engaged/dating older men. We're kind of traditional that way, I guess. Maybe it's a culture thing? Being 'taken care of' or something?
Lynn: That's all we need! Lex being involved in the time traveling. Imagine all of the bad business dealings he could change in order to advance his power at an earlier age!

Mrs. Luthor - Nothing against dating/marrying older men. But when you have kids the age of the person you are dating, it is a little more  But, to each their own. Lynn -  Why not both? Truly

Haha good point. One that had slipped my mind. They would most certainly be candidates for the Jerry Springer show though! It's like the Mindy Church situation all over again!

I actually always thought the same thing. For all of the 20-some-odd year olds that are Lex's sons, Lex doesn't look all that old!  The actor John Shea (who played Luthor on L&C) was born in 1949. It would make him 45 years old when Lex almost married Lois. In this pic (from Gossip Girl ) he's 62! He sure looks good for his age. ![[Linked Image]](http://static.tvguide.com/MediaBin/Content/120130/News/1_mon/120130gossip-girl-leighton-meester1.jpg)
