While you’re gossiping at the watercooler about Mackenzie Phillips’ revelation today that she had a 10-year affair with her father, musician John Phillips, you might also be saying, “Could it be true?”
In the new issue of Us Weekly (on newsstands now), Mackenzie’s half-sister Chynna Phillips, 41, says yes, she thinks it is.
Chynna, who is married to Billy Baldwin, tells Us she remembers getting the call from Mackenzie, 49, in 1997 — 11 years after the affair had ended — while she was between flights at LaGuardia Airport in New York City.
“She said, ‘I don’t know why, but I just really felt the need to call you and tell you something that I think you need to know,’” says Chynna. “And she went on to tell me that she had had an incestuous relationship with our dad for about 10 years.”
Chynna was in such shock, she says, that someone “could have dropped a piano on my head and I probably wouldn’t have felt it. But I knew it was true. I mean, who in their right mind would make such a claim if it wasn’t true?”
