Xavier aspires to be a musician, and thus, his father's dating a pop star is simply thrilling. Speaking about the same in an interview with the Can't Be Censored podcast, Xav said that he gets professional suggestions from the pop star. Xav revealed that whenever he finishes a song, he instantly sends it to the singer, and she gives him suggestions and advice. He further called Katy a 'down-to-earth' person, while adding that she is 'great' and his dad's happy place. Xav could be quoted as saying:

"When I’m really happy with a song [I] send it [to her]. She’s always happy to give me advice or tell me what I should change. She’s super nice. She’s super down to earth. She’s great. I think that my dad’s happy so that’s important."

In the same podcast, Xav revealed that the pressure that comes with being related to a public figure isn't unknown to him and that he is quite familiar with the 'noise' around. He said that in all his life, he had to listen to the fact that he shouldn't just indulge his time in reading comments.

However, Xav said that it just helps him to read positive comments and work on himself. On the other hand, when it comes to the public noise about his father's dating life, he just takes it casually. Something that Xav described as 'just like any other picture of my dad and my mom. Or just my dad.' Speaking about the same, Xav revealed:

"My life is so crazy sometimes. I’m like, What is my life? What the hell? I just laugh. The reality of it is, it’s my life. What can I do? What can I change? I’ve been told my whole life, ‘Don’t read comments'. The hate, it gets to me sometimes. I guess it’s built into my brain, I think of it as when someone comments on my video, when someone shares my video, when someone likes it, it just helps me."
