Frankie Valli, the renowned singer known for his work with the Four Seasons, recently received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in a ceremony attended by his family members. However, amidst the celebrations, a notable absence was felt as his eldest son Francesco was not present due to a restraining order issued against him.

The temporary restraining order, which was made permanent for three years, was granted to Frankie and his son Emilio following concerns about their safety. Francesco, aged 36, was ordered to stay away from both Frankie and Emilio, their residences, and workplaces by at least 100 yards.

Emilio, 29, expressed fear for their safety after Francesco attempted to break into Frankie’s property and made physical threats against them. The family highlighted a pattern of threatening behavior over several months, leading to the legal action taken against Francesco.

It was revealed that the family believes Francesco may be struggling with opiate addiction, and Frankie had insisted on him entering a residential drug treatment program as a condition for continued financial support. Francesco, known for his acting roles in movies like ‘The House Bunny,’ has been at the center of the family’s concerns.

Despite the family’s challenges, Frankie Valli expressed gratitude for the support he received during the Walk of Fame ceremony, particularly from his wife, Jackie, and twin sons Emilio and Brando. The honor marked a significant moment in his life and career, with the absence of one son casting a shadow over the event.

As the restraining order against Francesco remains in effect until 2027, the Valli family continues to navigate these difficult family dynamics while prioritizing their safety and well-being.
