Background & family info courtesy of Wikipedia:

Tuesday Weld was born Susan Ker Weld in New York City on 27 August, 1943. Her father, Lathrop Motley Weld, was a member of the Weld Family of Massachusetts; he died in 1947, shortly before her fourth birthday. Her mother was Weld's fourth and final wife, the former Yosene Balfour Ker, the daughter of the artist and Life illustrator William Balfour Ker.

She is one of three full siblings, the other two being Sarah King Weld (born 1935) and David Balfour Weld (born 1937). She also had two half-siblings by her father's first marriage to Dorothy Livermore Wells: Lothrop Motley Weld Jr. (born 1922) and Thomas Livermore Weld (1926-1999). Her paternal grandfather, Edward Motley Weld, was a noted sportsman and former president of the New York Cotton Exchange. Her maternal great-grandmother, Lily Florence (Bell) Ker, was a first cousin of Alexander Graham Bell.

Through her father, she is a third cousin of William Weld, the former Governor of Massachusetts and is more distantly related to former U.S. presidential candidate John Kerry, U.S. vice president Henry A. Wallace, actress Dina Merrill, British aristocrat Viscountess Linley, composer Charles Ives, actor Clint Eastwood, actor Anthony Perkins, and Charles J. Guiteau, who assassinated President James A. Garfield.

Personal life:

Tuesday has been married to:

1.) Screenwriter Claude Harz, whom she married in 1965 and divorced in 1971; they had a daughter, Natasha, in 1966. Of the marriage, Weld told Guy Flatley of The New York Times in 1971, "Mama hated my husband --- she's a jealous lover, you know. She's hated all the men I've ever been involved with. But I really felt that what I had been doing up to that time with my life was probably wrong, that maybe what I should be was a housewife. Our marriage lasted 5 years; it was just another one of my mistakes."

2.) British comedian and actor Dudley Moore, whom she married in 1975 and divorced in 1980. In 1976 they had a son, Patrick, an actor, director, and editor.

3.) Israeli concert violinist and conductor Pinchas Zukerman, whom she married in 1985; they divorced in 1998.
