Redmond O'Neal, Tatum and Griffin, rip into dad Ryan
Redmond O'Neal slammed his father for fake crocodile tears over the death of his mother, Farrah Fawcett, on June 25. In a Vanity Fair magazine interview, Redmond, 24, says: "All those crocodile tears! My dad's only goal was to make sure he would be in the will.
It was so disgustingly transparent as soon as he found out she was terminal. I consider him a vulture presiding over a carcass. Ryan thought he was going to get everything." Redmond was the main benefactor in Fawcett's will, with Ryan left out. He is serving time in a correctional drug rehabilitation facility in California for a drug-possession related parole violation. O'Neal's other children, Tatum and Griffin O'Neal, also talk about their father in the article. Griffin says: "My father is afraid of me because I know the truth. That's the part that absolutely scares him to death. "My father gave me cocaine when I was 11 and insisted I take it. He was violent all the way through my upbringing. He was a very abusive, narcissistic psychopath. He gets so mad he can't control anything he's doing."? Tatum has written a book about her childhood. She said: "No parent wants to hear their kid saying [awful] things about them. But what I wrote in the book was true. I've got a battle with drugs, but I'm a strong, independent person, and I fight for myself, and my father and I butt heads. When I was 16 years old, he and Farrah moved in together, and after that I saw my dad periodically, and that took a long time for me to get over."
