Cody Robert Simpson was born on January 11, 1997, in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. He is the eldest child of Brad and Angie Simpson and has two younger siblings: a brother named Tom and a sister named Alli. From a young age, Simpson showed an interest in music, inspired by his father, who often played guitar at family gatherings. At the age of seven, he received his first guitar and began formal lessons. His music teacher quickly recognized his talent, showcasing his impressive ability to identify chords by ear.
During the summer of 2009, Simpson began posting covers and original songs on YouTube, which gained considerable attention. His online popularity led to a record deal with Atlantic Records, prompting the Simpson family to relocate to Los Angeles to further his music career.
Simpson's professional roles span singer, songwriter, musician, and dancer. With a relaxed yet focused demeanor, he gained a loyal fan base, particularly among teenage audiences. At just 13, he signed his first major record deal, and in a nod to his ambition, he had asked his mother to reserve the domain name www.codysimpson.com three years earlier.
Over the years, Simpson released several albums, including Paradise, Surfers Paradise, and Free (not Angels and Gentlemen, which does not exist under his discography). Surfers Paradise features songs that he co-wrote, reflecting his upbringing on Australia’s Gold Coast. His music draws inspiration from his roots, blending pop with coastal and acoustic elements.
Due to his initial teen-pop style and worldwide appeal, Simpson was frequently compared to fellow pop star Justin Bieber. The two toured together, developing a personal and professional relationship. Simpson described Bieber as a close friend but acknowledged that their musical directions have diverged as they evolved artistically.
Beyond music, Simpson has a strong interest in competitive swimming. He won two gold medals at the Queensland Swimming Championships in his early teens and seriously considered pursuing a professional career in the sport. In recent years, he has returned to competitive swimming, training with elite swimmers and aiming for national representation.
Cody Simpson was in a well-publicized relationship with model Gigi Hadid for about a year. The couple shared a romantic vacation in St. Lucia during a Caribbean cruise, attracting media attention with affectionate posts on social media. Hadid appeared in Simpson's music video for "Surfboard," where their chemistry was reportedly so natural that they were asked to tone down their intimacy during filming. Despite their strong connection, the relationship ended amicably, largely due to conflicting work schedules and long-distance challenges.
Simpson has also been linked as a close friend to Kylie Jenner and Bella Thorne, the latter of whom he briefly dated. Currently, he remains unmarried and has not gone through a divorce.
Every December, during the Australian summer, Simpson returns home to the Gold Coast to spend time with family and friends. He enjoys relaxing on the beach, reconnecting with his roots, and embracing the laid-back lifestyle that continues to influence both his music and personal philosophy.
