Adam Robinson Children: Emma and Charlie Remembered After the Florida Plane Crash

Adam Robinson’s children were Emma, aged four, and Charlie, aged two. Both died with their parents, Robinson and Helen Sharp, in the November 1, 2026, private jet crash in Palm Beach County, Florida. Their relatives identified them in a joint statement and remembered the couple as devoted parents whose young children were central to their lives.

Who Were Emma and Charlie Robinson?

Emma and Charlie were the two children identified by the Robinson and Sharp families after the crash. Their names and ages come from the relatives’ public statement, rather than an inference from a photograph or an anonymous online tribute. That direct identification is the strongest basis for describing the children in an account of the family.

Emma was four and Charlie was two at the time of the announcement. Conflicting names appearing in secondary accounts should not replace the family’s own identification. Because the names are common, material about other children with similar names should also not be added to their story without a clear connection to the same parents and event.

Who Were Their Parents?

Their parents were technology entrepreneur Adam Robinson and Helen Sharp. Robinson was associated with software and email-marketing businesses, including Retention.com and Robly. Sharp was identified in reporting as his wife. Their family connection was established explicitly in the announcement, making it unnecessary to infer who was related from photographs of the passengers.

Robinson’s professional profile drew broad attention to the loss, but the family statement emphasised personal qualities and parenting. Relatives remembered the warmth of the household and the affection between the parents and children. Those recollections are the family’s account of people they knew, rather than a detailed public biography of the children’s everyday lives.

What Did the Family Say About the Children?

The joint statement described Emma and Charlie as deeply loved and remembered Adam and Helen as devoted parents. It also expressed the scale of the loss for relatives and friends. The announcement was intended to identify and honour the people who died while asking the wider public to respect the families’ grief.

A tribute does not need to be expanded into invented personality descriptions. The available account does not establish the children’s favourite toys, school experiences or conversations before the journey. Reporting their names, ages and the family’s own recollections is more accurate than constructing intimate scenes that nobody has publicly described.

Who Was Anita Maria Cetina?

Anita Maria Cetina helped care for Emma and Charlie and was also killed in the crash. The relatives remembered her tenderness and commitment to the children and described her as part of the family. Her inclusion shows that the family’s account recognised caregiving relationships alongside the children’s parents.

That description should be preserved without inventing the exact terms of her employment or her private history. The confirmed point is her caring role and the importance the relatives attached to it. Other passengers, Rachael Reed and Charmi Fehr, were remembered in the same joint statement as loved people whose deaths affected connected families.

What Happened to the Family?

The family were passengers on a Learjet travelling from Austin, Texas, to the Bahamas. The aircraft crashed near Greenacres in the West Palm Beach area on November 1. Nine people were aboard, and all died. The tragedy involved seven passengers and two crew members, not only the four members of the Robinson household.

That basic accident context explains why the children became the subject of public reporting. It does not establish why the aircraft crashed or imply any responsibility on the part of passengers. The investigation into the flight is a separate process from the family’s announcement identifying and remembering its loved ones.

How Did Their Names Become Public?

Adam’s brother, Anthony Robinson, shared the joint statement on behalf of the affected families. News organisations then reported the names and relationships it contained. This sequence matters because early accident coverage did not always include a complete list of victims, and some identities became public through relatives before a full official list appeared.

The statement also thanked first responders, investigators and the Palm Beach County community. That acknowledgement reflected the response around the crash and the support reaching the families. It should not be interpreted as the relatives endorsing a particular technical explanation or making a statement about the outcome of the investigation.

Have Memorial Arrangements Been Announced?

The family statement said details would be shared once arrangements were made. No specific public service schedule was established in the material reviewed here. A website should therefore not invent a location, invitation or fundraising page, and readers should not assume that every memorial notice using the same names concerns this family.

As of November 3, 2026, the confirmed account is that Emma and Charlie died with their parents and were remembered in a joint family announcement. Their names, ages and relationships are clear. The respectful account remains focused on those verified details and the relatives’ recollections, while leaving private information and future arrangements to the family to share.
