In 2015, Sixx also shared with The Guardian that his mother had died just recently, and that he had not been there. "My sister went to her bedside but I wouldn't go," he explained. "I said to myself, 'I should probably go,' but I could never connect the string. I called my sister and she said she totally understood if I don't come, and I said, 'I just don't feel that she deserves it.'"
Still, the topic of his mother, and their never repaired relationship, came up again in 2019, when Sixx was discussing the Mötley Crüe biopic, The Dirt, based on the band's 2001 collective autobiography of the same name. As he told PollStar: "The hard part of the film for me, which I didn't expect, was seeing my relationship with my mother, who passed away a few years ago without us being able to resolve our issues. The movie brought up a lot of pain around that. My grandparents, who aren't shown in the movie, were always there for me [...] But me and my mom could never meet in the middle. It's not something I'm proud of. I'm still confused about it."
Fortunately, Sixx has a very different relationship with his own children, having noted that, "No matter what happens in my kids' lives, I'll be there for them. My family means everything to me and I will do anything for them."
