After
Mackenzie Phillips' shocking accusations regarding a 10-year long
incestuous affair with her father, stepmom
Michelle Phillips, is speaking out to
dismiss her claims!
The ex-wife of the late
John Phillips claims that Mackenzie told everyone in their extended family about their sexual relationship in 1997, but claimed she was joking.
Michelle states, “
She told me, then she called me back and said, ‘You know I’m joking,’ I said it wasn’t funny. Mackenzie said, ‘I guess we have different senses of humor.’”
WTF?!
In her book, Mackenzie writes, “My father abused me but he wasn’t a monster. He was a tortured man who led a tortured existence.” She claims that she waited until now to come out with it because she didn’t want to wreck his legacy.
And Michelle is pissed!
Her response:
“She’s really protecting his legacy now, isn’t she?”
“John was a bad parent, and a drug addict. But [expletive deleted] his daughter? If she thinks it’s true, why isn’t she with a good psychiatrist on a couch? I think it’s unconscionable that Oprah would let her do her show. I have every reason to believe it’s untrue. Oprah should be more judicious about who she has on her show.”
"Mackenzie has a lot of mental illness. She’s had a needle stuck up her arm for 35 years. She was arrested for heroin and coke just recently. She did ‘Celebrity Rehab’ and now she writes a book. The whole thing is timed.”
“Mackenzie is jealous of her siblings, who have accomplished a lot and did not become drug addicts.”
It looks like someone is taking the stereotypical, evil stepmother role pretty seriously!
This is such a terrible, gut-wrenching confession that we can't imagine doing it for attention! If it was not true, she would need more help than we can fathom.
