Gossip: Ryan O’Neal
The problems are piling up for the 71-year-old actor.
The problems are piling up for Ryan O’Neal, said the London Daily Mail. In addition to battling stage two prostate cancer, the actor, 71, is being sued by the University of Texas over custody of a $30 million Andy Warhol portrait of his longtime lover, Farrah Fawcett. And a woman named Jessica Zellars is claiming that O’Neal fathered her 2-month-old son. O’Neal, who has agreed to a paternity test, vehemently denies the accusations. “This will be the first time a woman got pregnant without having sex or in vitro,” said a spokesman.
