Kevin Bresnahan Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Why wouldn't she get her DNA tested? There's got to be money in that estate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christiern Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I think this might very likely be true. Louis had no great love for Lucille and he would have left her in a NY minute, but he knew she'd raise all kinds of hell—with assist from her running buddy, PR woman Phoebe Jacobs. I was told this by several intimates while working on the Lil Armstrong book that I never finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
