A relative of my family was a professional painter who did fancy houses & offices in California. In the middle 60's he painted one of Lucille Ball's homes, and said she was very nervous & high strung, smoked like a chimney, ordered everybody around and cursed like a sailor almost nonstop. The workers couldn't wait to get the hell out of there. The role of Lucy Ricardo was 100% fictional acting for her.
1942: lucy smokes phillip morris cigarettes during pregnancy which leads to miscarriage
1949: lucy smokes phillip morris cigarettes during pregnancy which leads to miscarriage
1950: lucy smokes phillip morris cigarettes during pregnancy which leads to miscarriage
1951: doctors tell lucy smoking can cause miscarriages and she conceives and carries a baby to full term. EFF u phillip morris, lucy and desi could've lived longer if not for your sick ass company eff you
If we are to believe what daughter Lucie said in her biography special years ago "Lucy and Desi,A Home Movie", daddy Desi spent much more time with she and Desi Jr.When Desi came home,Lucie said no matter how tired he was, he played with them. I know Lucie and Desi Jr. know mom loved them too, but they wanted the public to know Desi Sr,was a loving father,warts and all.He doesn't get enough credit for "I Love Lucy", and other shows he was
@blueticecho Thats absolutely wrong. They've done nothing to live off their parents. They haven't exploited them or anything. They loved their parents and their parents loved them.
@cheeriosinabowl Even though their marriage didn't work out, Desi always loved Lucy up until his death, which is why they had no disputes over the show's name. I know a little bit about what that's like, but not as severely. You may love someone deeply as much as one can love another, but the person's habits and needs change, and you have to let it go when it doesn't work out, or the person is getting close to others romantically, and you must move on yourself.
@cheeriosinabowl It may have been for the best that they divorced. If Lucy was still having to take care of and answer to Desi when their marriage was so bad, who knows what would have happened. While nobody exactly "likes" divorce, it's a necessary evil.
Desi signed over full ownership of Desilu to Lucy after the divorce. Had he not been able to leave Lucy and sign over his position, he may have gotten worse drinking habits and not had the chance to get himself back together.
... yes, true what you wrote. To the public, Lucy and Desi had the charmed life, they had so much fame and fortune that all the rest of us mere mortals can only dream of. But ... Lucy and Desi after all is said and done were just humans like the rest of us. You can't outguess life.
they couldn't get over the split & they loved each other more than they loved the others they married. Some married couples fight constantly. They always made up & they made up in 1960.
they always made up after fighting, I wish we could change the past & they didn't have problems & stayed together forever. Ppl who loved each other fight. They wished they never divorced & wished they could've changed it. All married couples fight at times.
the part at the end when it says "Lucy filed for divorce in the 1940's, she didn't go threw with it because they reconciled with one another, she filed for divorce on May 4th 1960

I know their son, Desi Jr, personally. He and his wife owned the dance studio and ballet company here, and I danced for them for many, many years. I still keep in very close contact with his wife, who was my first ballet teacher. :)
Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and talk to Lucy and Desi so they could stay together. I always felt even though they had their differences, they still loved each other till the day they died. God Bless them both!
they stayed together because of their children & because they love each other to the end ! The story goes deeper than most people know.
The miscarriages were nobody's fault just a genetic weakness that ran in Lucy's family.
Back then they didn't know how to deal with high risk pregnancy.
The pressure that was brought to bear didn't help, the underhand people who wanted a cut of their success & who conveyed a dislike of their marriage were at fault.
Thanks for this. I especially love getting the chance to see those rare photos of Lucy and Desi together at special events or family functions when they were older. It's a shame that they didn't work together again, if not Desi doing a cameo on one of Lucy's later shows, then even in one of her mid '70s specials or in some other unrelated movie or program. I'm glad they remained friendly.
I believe they had very bittersweet feelings toward their parents. Just as Lucy and Desi had for each other. RIP Lucy and Desi sr and you're in my prayers Lucie and Desi jr
They didn't stay together for the children, as the video says. When Lucy filed for divorce the first time and they reconciled, they didn't even have any children yet.
@puupydoger Lucy actually filed for divorce from Desi in 1944, but back then, there was a waiting period before the divorce could go through. (I don't know for sure, but I guess that the waiting period was so that maybe during that time, the couple could reconcile if they wanted to.) Lucy decided not to pursue the divorce any further and she and Desi reconciled.
lovely video you have put together and it was wise of them 2 stay 2gether 4 the children, if i ever want to have children i want his/her or there parents 2 stay 2gether like my grandparents, they stayed 2gether until my nanna passed away 3 year ago
