Is it true that Susans Luccis mother is Phyliss Diller?
Claim: Actress Susan Lucci is the daughter of comedienne Phyllis Diller. Status: False. Origins: Rumors that some well-known actor or actress is really the child of an equally prominent but unlikely parent have long been a feature of the motion picture industry. Indeed, wild tales about the questionable ancestry of famous people are found all throughout history. Whereas historical examples of this phenomenon were often attempts to discredit the subject (frequently a political figure) by associating him with someone despised by the public, the “movie star” rumors are generally little more than entertainment concocted to amuse by associating a star with a “parent” who is the opposite in appearance or personality.
