    His father’s name is Nabil Kamel Elmoussa (it seems often to be spelled this way), and he’s 73. He also appears to go by the alias “Bill Arnould,” which quite frankly is bizarre.

    His mother’s name is Dominique El Moussa-Arnould, she is pictured here (old photo) :

    And it’s not sure if his father is Lebanese or Moroccan.

    It’s funny, because I’ve seen his dad listed as Egyptian or Moroccan. And the “El” is very Egyptian.
