Ryan O’Neal Hits on Tatum At Farrah Fawcett’s Funeral

Ryan O’Neal has shed some light on his bizarre, dysfunctional relationship with daughter Tatum.  Speaking Vanity Fair about the loss of his love Farrah Fawcett, O’Neal mentioned this disturbing story:

“I had just put the casket in the hearse and I was watching it drive away when a beautiful blonde woman comes up and embraces me. I said to her, ‘You have a drink on you? You have a car?’ She said, ‘Daddy, it’s me–Tatum!’ I was just trying to be funny with a strange Swedish woman, and it’s my daughter. It’s so sick.”

Tatum told this to the magazine:

“That’s our relationship in a nutshell.  You make of it what you will.  It had been a few years since we’d seen each other, and he was always a ladies’ man, a bon vivant.”

I think I speak for everyone when I say “Ew”.  They’ve always had a tough relationship and this just highlights that.  It’s a very…odd story.  I’d be interested to read more about this when Vanity Fair hits newsstands.
