Lucy & Desi's Long Lost Grandchild?

September 2, 2008 | Web Extra

They continue to charm worldwide audiences in "I Love Lucy" reruns -- now a woman is claiming Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz hid a love child that would have ruined their public image!

According to the NY Post, Cassandria Lucianna Carlson, 38, believes she's the granddaughter of the comedy duo -- and that her mother was put up for adoption before "I Love Lucy" aired -- reportedly to prevent ruining Ball's plans for stardom.

While no DNA test has been conducted to examine Carlson's lineage claims, she insists she has evidence to support them -- including a memory of being visited by Lucille herself!

Desi Jr. and Lucie Arnaz, the couple's two children, did not respond to the Post's request for comment.

It’s a shame there’s so much conflict about this. I hope this gets resolved in the New Year. I’m not judging anyone. It’s sad for all concerned that there’s so much conflict….heresay. I don’t know the truth, but I wish the families to have peace.

Shelly,
I can assure you that my wife(Julia Arnaz) has NEVER submitted ANYTHING to youtube. I must say that this whole endeavor has been quite entertaining in a sadistic way. It also gave me something to do when I was bored. After talking for several hours with our newest confidant he/she assured us that our initial impression was correct. Finally I would like to say…its been fun but it aint been real fun and ladies and gentleman I bid you farewell.

It’s me Shelly again. I just read up on her and her statute of limitations expired last year on her claim against the will because she learned about it in 03 right? so she would’nt be eligible to claim anything anyway. What did she have to gain or lose? I think this story is too much to handle. So she’s Desi Jr.’s kid? I am confused.

God, I hope she and you guys all have great lawyers. So it took you 6 months to figure out she was a fraud? It made sense, but ok. So her legal stuff is fraud too? Did she photoshop them? Tell us what do you know? he he he

Good Morning All,
Thank you for the last post. I, after working 6 long months with Ms. Carlson and Family have learned that she is NOT who she states she is. I have separated myself from her professionally and we have parted ways.

The truth came out that she made up a large part of her story and frauded many people and agencies. Now there is talk of a lawsuit against her. It is one thing to try and make people believe that someone gave a baby away, another to defame and shame others in the process.

I am glad the truth is out, and we can put this story to rest.
