Bhad Bhabie has reconciled with her estranged father, Ira Peskowitz, after years of family drama and legal disputes.
The 21-year-old rapper and media personality — who recently listed her $3.5 million Los Angeles home — reconnected with her father last year in the summer of 2023 after she reached out to him, sources told TMZ on Friday.
Both the star — whose real name is Danielle Bregoli — and Ira, a sheriff, then started to talk on the phone and also via text messaging.
According to the outlet, Bhad Bhabie later visited her father in Florida and he soon was invited to California, as well as his wife and Danielle’s two half-brothers.
Insiders stated that Bregoli felt enough time had passed with no communication with her dad, and decided to simply put the past behind them.

Bregoli and Ira are reportedly now on good terms, and he also has a relationship with Danielle’s daughter, Kali Love.
Earlier this year in March, Danielle welcomed Kali to the world, and shares the little one with Le Vaughn.
The star’s father was also seen attending Kali’s six month birthday bash which took place last month in September.
In a photo uploaded to Instagram by Le Vaughn’s mother, Ira could be seen flashing a smile as he stood next to Danielle at the strawberry-themed party.
The influencer donned a white bralette top for the festivities, while her dad wore a pink shirt with red strawberry patterns embroidered onto the fabric.
On his Facebook page, he has also shared photos since his reconciliation with Danielle.

Ira previously posted another snap to reveal that he got a tattoo of his daughter’s name on his arm back in August.

However, both Ira as well as Danielle and mother Barbara Bregoli have been embroiled in past family drama as well as legal disputes.
He had reportedly filed a report for domestic dispute against Barbara after he claimed she made threats to ‘stab and kill him’ in front of Danielle when she was four-months-old.
However, Danielle’s mother followed a counter suit the next day and claimed he made threats to both her, their daughter and also threatened with suicide.
In 2018, he claimed that Barbara ‘went after him with a knife,’ and he also filed for a restraining order.
During an interview with the Palm Beach Post in 2017, he told the publication: ‘Danielle feels rejected by me. That poor girl. I did not abandon her. I left her mother, but I did not abandon her.
‘I know there is a little girl in there and I hope one day she can hug me and say, “I love you, daddy.”‘
That same year, Bhad Bhabie — who is known for her Cash Me Outside catchphrase — removed her father from her birth certificate.
Two years later, in 2020, she took to Instagram in a since-deleted post to express that she wanted a restraining order against Ira after he claimed that Barbara had abused her.

Danielle stated at the time, ‘I want a restraining order against this man. This is my biological father but is also the same man who walked out on my mother when I was three months old for some stripper that he met in Canada.’
‘Then got married to her 27 March 2004 – the day after my first birthday which he wasn’t EVEN THERE FOR.’
The star had added, ‘This man makes a big deal out of everything I can’t even post a video as a joke without this man making it seem more than it is.’
‘All he wants is spot light when he really needs mental help! This man is mentally ill. Wasn’t only cheating on my momma with strippers but men too #seekhelp.’
Bregoli also went on an Instagram Live to vent about the estranged relationship with her father.
‘Now all of a sudden this man want to get on the internet and bash my mother? Listen here you punk, let me tell you something, you ain’t done a g*****n mother-f*****g thing for me my whole life.’
She emotionally added, ‘I have received one gift from you that I’m sure you didn’t buy, I’m sure your mother bought it.’
‘So please. I ain’t received anything. My mother has done everything for me. Everything! You haven’t done a d**n thing.’
Danielle and Ira’s reconciliation comes just months after she accused her boyfriend Le Vaughn of alleged domestic abuse in July.
At the time, she shared since-deleted CCTV footage that had captured an alleged physical altercation between her and Le Vaughn at around 4:30am on June 30.
The reel showed the pair outside a home and allegedly Bregoli could be seen being thrown onto the ground by Le Vaughn.

In July, Bhad Bhabie shut down speculation that she was ‘staying’ with Le Vaughn after accusing him of domestic abuse.
But that same month, the pair could be seen sharing a passionate kiss – and were also spotted ‘hugging and smooching’ in Beverly Hills.
And in August, Danielle and Le Vaughn got matching tattoos of each other’s faces after her domestic violence allegations against him. He was also seen at Kali’s birthday bash last month.
