Elizabeth Ashley Wharton, also known as Elle Neil, is Vince Neil's second child from his first marriage to Beth Lynn. She followed in the legendary rocker's footsteps into the music industry, where she also found love.
Elizabeth Ashley Wharton drew her first breath on April 13, 1985. She was born to Vince Neil and Beth Lynn and is the former couple's only child. She inherited her father's musical prowess and has pursued it independently.
Elizabeth was even accepted into Juilliard, though she later chose an alternative path. Growing up, she was somewhat estranged from her father following his separation from her mother. However, the pair later strengthened their bond.
Elizabeth Ashley Wharton on Her Childhood
Elizabeth shared insight into her childhood in Vince's 2010 biography, "Tattoos & Tequila: To Hell and Back With One Of Rock's Most Notorious Frontmen." Following her parents' divorce — her dad remarried a few times — in the mid-80s, she and her mother frequently moved around.
Despite being the daughter of a rock star, Elizabeth said she never felt like a "celebrity kid," particularly in elementary and middle school; kids her age were not familiar with Motley Crue. The "celebrity kid" status only became apparent as she got older.
As for her relationship with Vince, she said, "Did I want my dad more in my life? Sure. But I also understood that my parents were human." Elizabeth held nothing against her dad; she knew the lack of his presence didn't mean he never cared about her.
She and Vince were consistently communicating when she wrote the 2010 biography. "I love listening to her talk," Vince said of her. "She's very smart and knows what she wants. And she seems to love me, even though I wasn't there during her life. I love her so much, I can't start to describe it."
Elizabeth Ashley Wharton's Meandering Venture in Music
Elizabeth applied to study classical singing at Juilliard, presumably in the late 2000s, and although she was accepted, she never enrolled. She decided to write instead. Her dad (now dating Rain Hannah) revealed she also tried her luck with country music.
In 2012, she joined the pop band Loomis and the Lust as a bassist; however, it's unknown if she still plays for the band. She has an Instagram account where she describes herself as a writer, singer, and bassist, but at the time of this writing, her last post is from 2021.
Elizabeth Ashley Wharton Married Will Loomis
Will Loomis is a musician and the founder of Loomis and the Lust. He and Elizabeth met in 2010 and began a romantic relationship sometime after. It's unclear when they became engaged, but in a July 2014 post, Elizabeth shared she had gone wedding dress hunting.
The couple eventually tied the knot, where Vince happily walked Elizabeth down the aisle. His son-in-law occasionally shares snippets from the special day on his Instagram page. Will also frequently shares sweet posts about Elizabeth on his socials.
In August 2022, he gushed about how "cute" she looked in a red vest while she did some volunteer work in Carpinteria, California. As mentioned, Elizabeth is Vince's second child; his first is a son, Neil Wharton, and his youngest is his late daughter, Skylar Lynnae Neil.
