Editing Todd Rundgren (section)

==Personal life==
Rundgren began a relationship with model [[Bebe Buell]] in 1972. During a break in their relationship, Buell had a brief relationship with [[Steven Tyler]], which resulted in an unplanned pregnancy. Buell gave birth to [[Liv Tyler]] on July 1, 1977. Buell initially claimed that Rundgren was the biological father and named the child Liv Rundgren. Shortly after Liv's birth, Rundgren and Buell ended their romantic relationship, but Rundgren remained committed to Liv. At age eleven, Liv learned that her biological father was Steven Tyler.<ref name="People - Bio">{{cite web|url=http://www.people.com/people/liv_tyler/biography|title=Liv Tyler Biography|access-date=June 23, 2008|work=[[People (American magazine)|People]]}}</ref><ref name="Hello - Bio">{{cite web|url=http://www.hellomagazine.com/profiles/livtyler/?|title=Hello Magazine Profile&nbsp;– Liv Tyler|access-date=June 23, 2008|work=[[Hello!
