On Tuesday during an interview on The Today Show, Ryan O’Neal admitted to having poor parenting skills. O’Neal has four children, three of whom have struggled with addiction. During the taping Matt Lauer asked O’Neal if he felt he was a bad parent. He responded with, “Looks like it, doesn’t it? I suppose I was.” He went on to say that his children are adults now and need to take responsibility for their own actions. “Griffin is 45, Tatum is 49, who’s the other one? Redmond is 27. They have to take hold of their own existences.” O’Neal also spoke about his published memoir, titled Both of Us: My Life with Farrah. He said he wrote the book because he misses Farrah (Fawcett), and isn’t over losing her. ~Graeme Mollison
