Tatum O’Neal

RYAN O’NEAL: “IT’S OPRAH’S FAULT THAT TATUM AND I DON’T SPEAK!”

How funny is it that Ryan “pass the buck” O’Neal blames Oprah for widening the rift in his family. Ryan, 70, and his estranged daughter Tatum, 47, filmed eight episodes of their reality show all about their attempts to reconcile after ten years of estrangement for the Oprah Winfrey Network. We have to give Tatum a lot of credit for even attempting to get along with her impossible father. The series featured therapy sessions including father and daughter but after it wrapped they were no longer speaking at all. Ryan blames not his own history as a monstrous father, but Oprah’s prying series. We think Tatum is better off without him.

GET IN LINE LADIES, RYAN O’NEAL IS LOOKING FOR LOVE

Ryan O’Neal wants the women of Los Angeles to know that his is now officially available for dating. (In fact, he was seen sweet talking a woman over dinner at Mastro’s recently) And there’s a bonus – his lucky dates are likely to appear on his new reality series on Oprah’s OWN network. Ryan and his daughter Tatum both want to be on TV so badly that they’re willing to try and get along while doing a show based on their reconciliation called “Lost & Found.” (If you recall, Ryan didn’t recognize Tatum at Farrah’s funeral and hit on her!) The series will feature both of them in much-needed therapy sessions and also their respective dating lives. Hence the opportunity to date Farrah’s ex.
