13. Woody Allen’s Paternity Confusion

Speaking of dysfunctional families, few Hollywood clans seem to be nearly as strange behind the scenes as the Allen/Farrow crowd.

Woody Allen has taken a beating in the media in the past few months due to recent accusations that he molested his adopted daughter Dylan Farrow.

As yet no charges have been filed and Allen vehemently denies the rumors, so the presumption of innocence stands.

What’s more curious, however, is the paternity of his estranged son Ronan, who Mia Farrow recently stated may not be an Allen child.

Allen has a long and storied career as a humorist and filmmaker with over 60 film credits to his name and a whopping 24 Academy Award nominations. His romantic and professional partnership with Mia Farrow was the stuff of Hollywood fairy tales back in the 1980s, coming to an abrupt end in 1992 when Allen dumped her for her 20-year old adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn.

Ronan Farrow never forgave his father for the indiscretion, and has stated his disgust with Allen several times in social media. In a twist worthy of one of Allen’s wackier films, Ms. Farrow revealed to the press the possibility that Ronan could actually be a child of Frank Sinatra. As yet no DNA test has been administered on Ronan, though the blue eyes do seem like a giveaway.
