There are now multiple generations who believe this former A+ list mostly movie actress was one of the most horrible celebrity parents of all time.
There have been articles and books and movies made about horrible she was as a parent.
There are two words that are synonymous with her in the English language. What if all of it is a lie though.
What if it was just about revenge from one of her children who had been left with nothing when the actress died.
The child thought they were going to inherit a lot of money and got nothing.
They were broke.
They were unemployed. So, they decided to get back at mom and the legend of the awful parent was born.
Not only was it born, it took off and made the child rich.
Not only did the child continue to exploit mom, but then added in other actresses and actors of her mother’s generation and told horrible stories about them and things they had done to the child.
It is only now that the truth is emerging and what was supposed to be a quick cash grab or just some revenge has turned into a four decade career.
