MacKenzie Phillips to Oprah: I Slept With My Dad, John Phillips

MacKenzie Phillips’ Oprah interview is set to air today and we have learned what her shocking secret is.
She slept with her father, John Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas.
MacKenzie says that in 1979, the night before she was to marry Jeff Sessler, a member of the Rolling Stones entourage, she blacked out on drugs and awoke to her father having sex with her.
“On the eve of my wedding, my father showed up, determined to stop it. I had tons of pills, and Dad had tons of everything too. Eventually I passed out on Dad’s bed. My father was not a man with boundaries. He was full of love, and he was sick with drugs. I woke up that night from a blackout to find myself having sex with my own father. Had this happened before? I didn’t know. All I can say is it was the first time I was aware of it.”
This was not your normal case of incest, the sexual relationship became consensual by 1980. That same year MacKenzie was fired from One Day at a Time and she and her father attended rehab together, which I believe was in vain because Mac has been in and out of rehabs up until recently.
In my last post about MacKenzie I mentioned that, if you recall, she tried smuggling cocaine and heroin through the airport last year and was caught. She eventually thanked authorities for catching her with the drugs, saying they saved her life. She claimed to have been clean since 1992 – which I have a hard time believing that the ONE time she decided to use was that particular day. I’m sure she had been using up until that point, we just don’t know for how long. The thanking authorities bit seemed like an act for the public.
Talk about a messed up relationship. I feel dirty just writing about it. I am having a real hard time with the consensual part! I can’t imagine being messed up on drugs so badly that having sex with your daughter/father seems OK. No wonder she is such a mess.
I don’t think the story is as shocking as the fact that MacKenzie is willing to talk about it publicly. That has to be hard, making yourself so vulnerable and open.
I still don’t trust her. Not that I doubt her story, again, just her motives. And is she really clean these days? I find that hard to believe. She seems like a “lifer” to me. Broken beyond repair.
