The child definitely favors Desi. All the arguing won’t change THAT!

Oh and P.S., you’d realize how hard it was for them to have children simply by educating yourself with that piece of material as well.

I think this is completely lame. Who is this woman, someone desperately looking for a way to feed her children? She wants a cut of the empire? What a lousy thing to do, to put Lucie and Desi Jr. through this. Doesn’t she think they have enough to deal with?

Cassandria is doing this for nothing more than money, and she needs to go get a life of her own and DROP it. Read Lucille Ball’s, \Love, Lucy.\ THAT is an accurate historical account by Lucy that wasn’t dug up until after her death because she had changed her mind about releasing it after the divorce in order not to hurt Desi. THAT contains everything you EVER wanted to know about Lucy.

Get a life, Cassandria. You don’t even deserve this press.

Heres my question. This so called lost daughter of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz was born in 1947. Lucile Ball divorced Desi in 1960 and married Gary Morton in 1961. in 1961 the daughter would have been 14 years old. Now I know that i remember things well from when i was 14 and so does everyone else. How is it that she cannot positively say it was actually Lucy because at the time Lucille Ball was on television a lot so everyone knew who she was and the daughter was 14 i think thats old enough for someone to remember seeing Lucille Ball when they were 14. instead of saying some woman named mrs morton why couldn’t she just say it WAS Lucille?

F.Y.I.: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is passed from the mother to each of her offspring, not just to her female offspring. We males simply do not pass ours, from our respective mothers, on to our own respective offspring, whether male or female. So, a biological brother of any of the women mentioned in the above blog post as possible candidates for mtDNA testing and possible matching would also be a candidate, as he would have the very same mtDNA as his sister(s) and mother!

[...] Was just enjoying the archives and ran across a mention of Lucille Ball which lead to a little Googling when I ran across the following article……has anyone heard of a potential ‘other child’? I don’t even know how to react………..never heard this before… Using mtDNA to Suggest Kinship – A Case Example Involving Lucille Ball Image via Wikipedia There is an article in yesterday’s Greenwich Times entitled “Woman out to prove kinship to Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz” about Cassandria Carlson, a woman from Schaumburg, Ill. who believes she is the granddaughter of Lucille Ball. According to Carlson, her mother was born to Lucille Ball in 1947 and was then put up for adoption “because her very existence would have interfered with Ball’s career.” Among her evidence, Carlson cites a 1946 newspaper clipping which described Ball as pregnant as well as her mother Madeline Jane Dee’s memories of a red-headed woman named “Mrs. Morton” bringing her to the playground as a child (Ball’s second married was to a Gary Morton). Unfortunately, Ms. Dee died just a few years ago. http://www.thegeneticgenealogist.com…-lucille-ball/ [...]

Rachel and Rick,

Thank you for your time. While your information is “text book”, we are prepared to discredit details within the books written if need be, we are on the fourth one now. The only book to be somewhat accurate is “A Book” By Desi Arnaz.

Everyone is so afraid of the truth? Don’t worry, we are coming to a very big crescendo on the truth and are about to call it all out…

Thank you for your time and your interest in this topic.

Have a wonderful weekend!
