- Desi Arnaz Jr. Reveals His Miserable Life as Lucille Ball’s Son
Desi Arnaz Jr., the son of television legends Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, has lived a life illuminated by the spotlight's glow and shadowed by its pressures. Born into showbiz royalty, he grew up amidst the dazzle of Hollywood's golden era, yet not all that glitters is gold. In spite of the privilege, his upbringing came with complexities that drove him to the edge.

You people are confusing photos of Desi Arnaz, Jr. with photos of a young Donnie Osmond.
YES! They are. The person who put this together needs to learn who they are actually talking about before they upload a bunch of inaccurate information.
THANK YOU! I thought that I was going crazy!
@@susangomez3877 Exactly!!! If the narrator of this piece is gonna play at being a "journalist," at he should have taken the time to do his due diligence. Also, the title of this video is VERY misleading since Dezi Jr. is never seen actually speaking about his childhood. Can anyone say "click bait"? Thumbs down from me!
@@susangomez3877
Sai. Theres no person with this channel.
Also, Desi Arnaz, Jr didn't act in "I love Lucy". Keith Thibodeux did.
Somebody doesnt know the difference between Desi Jr. and Donny Osmond!
Obviously not a Boomer.
@@jamiecronin967 probably from generation z who doesn't know much about anything, let alone TV trivia.
Right!
@@juliemnm8273 We boomers know. If you know, you know.
😅😅😅
I never realized Little Ricky grew to be Donny Osmond.. Truly Fascinating
That’s not Donnie osmond, it’s desi arnaz jr.
😂
@@AmyJohnson-un5oj They're being sarcastic.
😄😆
🤭😅
Every time he mispronounces Arnaz, it drives me up the wall.
Yeah, and how about "Daisy"...lol.
Yes me too.
It's literally a bit, and this is clickbait.
IKR!
It's a stupid robot.
Why do you keep showing clips of Donny Osmond? do your research.
Exactly
Never allow the truth get in the way of a good story. Any climate change activist will tell you this.
It's a bot. This channel is a content farm.
YEAH!
Also the actor playing Little Ricky
The little boy in I Love Lucy was a child actor, NOT Desi Jr.
I think it was him.
Yes, and the narrator stated that.
How many boys played Little Ricky on I Love Lucy?
Little Ricky was played by a number of actors, including James John Ganzer, twins Richard and Ronald Lee Simmons, twins Michael and Joseph Mayer and, most notably, Keith Thibodeaux, billed as Little Ricky.
@@MxMicah1038 No it wasn't. Look at the credits Little Ricky was played by Keith Thibodeaux.
@@caldwellfisher5288 Wrong. Only one kid played little Ricky on I Love Lucy.
What is Donny Osmond doing in this in this thing here
That's another story😊
I was wondering that too!
RUclips does this sort of thing often.
That’s what was thinking
@@IvanRodriguez-hl4pgRUclips doesn’t slip random photos or video clips of other actors or singers, as these are placed in the video by the creator, and then it’s submitted to RUclips for publication.
Good Lord! Regarding your lazy documentary, Donny Osmond and Desi Arnaz Jr are not the same person.
That was sure obvious. Probably done in India. This happens often out of that social media attempting to make money. Almost similar to scamming
Thank you. I was thinking the same thing. Donnie Osmond looks nothing like Desi Jr.
No wonder he had an identity crisis, being three separate boys.
😂😂😂 Good one!
Good one
Lol
The first 10 minutes of this MESS of verbal diarrhea is a constant repetition that Desi Jr. was messed up because he was born to famous parents, repeated endlessly in slightly different sentences. 👎 Talk about padding a video!
Could be based on a one-sentence paragraph in The National Enquirer.
@@stillhere1425 RUclips videos aren't made to be accurate or even truthful, they're made to be watched and earn the poster money. It's like insurance, it's made to be bought, not to pay off.
Word salad! Lol.
His name isn't Daisy Arnaz.
ArNOZ
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In Spanish the e is pronounced like a.
Donny - Desi. We all look alike to the Chinese clickbaiter who put this together.
What bullshit.
Exactly!
How do I take this seriously when you don't even have the photos of the correct person here? 🤔
Why did they keep showing Donny Osmond?!!
Absolutely disgusting that I can only dislike this once
Good ol Daisy Arnahz.
Can't they tell Desi from Donnie Qsmond?
Yeah really. That’s pretty pathetic.
That is Desi abd Donny Osmond. Are you blind?
10 minutes of information stretched to 21 minutes.
His dad was just a two timing dog
Donny Osmond is not Desi Arnaz Jr. Jeeesh!
Besides the 2 pursuing entertainment interests, there’s a HUGE difference between the two!
Thank you for noting this! 👍🙂🙏
Like an episode of SNL “Never Mind” aka Gilda Radner.
The best is Desi Arnez Sr hosting SNL and he has Desi Jr play the drums with him. No one knew Desi Jr was going to be live with his father. It was the only time he looked truly happy. The smile was real.
I expected to see lots of pics featuring the kid who PLAYED Desi Jr. on I Love Lucy. But I forgot to expect another half dozen shots of Donny Osmond.
Correction: He WAS famous in his own right by 1967 as one of the star band Dino, Desi & Billy. Look it up.
Exactly. I was a huge fan and recognised photos of him used here that I used to have as pinups on my wall. In fact I got to know the band before I knew who their parents were.
Lucille Ball was the greatest of the greatest and her chemistry with Desi Arnaz on I Love Lucy was spectacular - legendary.
Do you think you can show Desi some respect and pronounce his name correctly??!!
Yeah, daisy...smh.
It's a computer
Its funny people cant TELL. lol @inventorylady53
He wasn't Little RIcky in ILL.
Talk about an identity crisis. The makers of this video do not know the difference between Desi Arnaz and Donnie Osmond.
I was watching I Love Lucy through the story line of Little Ricky's birth. His identity crisis is very sad. After all these years, I was astonished to find out that he was also Donny Osmond. It's just one thing after another. First it's watching someone play himself on television. Then it's BLEEP, drugs, and Rock 'N Roll. Finally he comes out of the closet as Donny Osmond. Of course the worst part of that is that Marie Osmond is his sister, which means she is off limits to Ricky-Desi-Donny. That last would have sent most men over the edge.
It seems to have done just that to YOU.
lol
LOL. I was looking at comments just to see if anyone else noticed Donny Osmond.
@@IvanRodriguez-hl4pg Yep. I was so traumatized that I became Neil Young. At 114 years old and looking like the hearse wrecked on the way to the funeral, I've had to remove all mirrors from the house. No more BLEEP for me.
LOL!
Amazing how much he looks like his dad !
I think it's amazing how much he looked like Donny Osmond 😅
Growing up, if you were sick and stayed home from school there was a TV guide of consecutive shows in which Lucy was on the list. Watching this sitcom always gave me great comfort, coming into our living rooms.
Donnie Osmond reveals his miserable life as Lucille Ball's son.
Lol
Ho, ho ho, just like a yo-yo!!
I belonged to his fan club when he had a band. I still have the autographed postcard picture.
THEY ARE FOREVER TALKING ABOUT THEIR PARENTS, as if they are nothing by themselves.
Whenever people comment about the Arnaz family they always make it be black and white. Desi and Lucy were complex and complicated people who loved each other very much until the day they died.They, together, built an empire in the 50's. Desi was a business genius and by the late 50's Desilu had 16 shows on air and he was running 3 studios. Everyone knows Lucy was a workaholic and I guess she became even more so in the 60's. No parent is perfect, they did the best they could.
They were probably both workaholics. Not good for the long run.
It's always something. I say at least they worked hard to provide a good life. Plenty of parents fail to do even that.
I’m almost 80 and remember watching I love Lucy when I was a young boy. No one ever suspected there was anything but happiness in their family. It’s very disappointing to hear that there was such discord within their family. Those tv shows were such great entertainment for the people at that time. I still fondly remember them.
All these UTube Creators, gossips magazines/new leave these people(celebrities) alone, They have the right to be left alone in life and after death!
As inaccurate as this is, not pronouncing the name correctly, and showing Donny Osmond instead, who knows, they could’ve made this garbage up too. It is not Desi Arnaz revealing anything.
How "miserable" could it have been for him? Born into wealth and having numerous opportunities and privileges?!
He should have emulated Frank Sinatra's three kids. All built successful careers and didn't make the tabloids for punching bouncers on the Sunset Strip.
Lol ikr. Poor little rich white boy. Waaaa
There’s more to happiness than money and privilege.
Desi Sr, was known first and foremost for being a philanderer. I was routinely made aware of this every time I mentioned the show "I love Lucy" which was on TV every day that I got home from kindergarten 1968. It was well known.
I started to read his autobiography once, but stopped. It was so disgusting.
Yeah well that's kind obvious considering they broke up in 1960. Nobody was shy about the motive, everyone knew it was due to his cheating and drinking. She talked about it in several interviews at the time, and he never denied it.
Several of the pictures shown to be Desi are actually of Donny Osmond who guess stared on an episode of Here's Lucy.
They did show Desi on The Brady Bunch when he showed up at their house to meet Marsha
This is not an interview of Desi arnaz Junior this is a guy narrating what he thinks and he doesn't know crap!
Rich Hollywood kids always end up in substance abuse.
whats with the pictures of donny osmond?
Unless my eyes are playing tricks on me, I saw several clips of Donne Osmond, starting at 2:18, and again at 4:33, 5:27- 6:02. etc. which were not of Desi Jr. Interesting info though.
Yup.
Yes, and at 2:50 is a clip Dean Martin Jr. (Dino) of the band Dino, Desi & Billy. Desi Jr. was in back playing the drums.
Other children of famous parents did okay.. He was never able to find his niche..
I think his mother was too involved in his private life or rather he never had one.
Probably some, but many are messed up.
@@patriciafeehan7732 I think you hit the nail on the head. As much as I love Lucy, I know that she was a complicated person irl and became even more so after the divorce which I believe she never recovered from it (for that matter neither did Desi). There's probably a psychological explanation, but she had trouble letting go and moving on (she did 3 shows, for 20 years or so, that were copies of I Love Lucy with pretty much the same cast and roles) Desi Jr was the last thing she had to hold on to, eventually she became overprotective.
They sure don't know what Desi looks like
One is a little more country and the other is a little more rock n' roll... oh wait!
I watched him play on "Password"as a very early teen. He impressed me as a thoughtful and insightful young man.
Who writes the script for these clips? It’s repetitive & frankly isn’t informative.
Going on repeating hisself over and over and some of the photo not him
He was a very beautiful young man..and i can totally unerstand the struggle he had..to show his worth in the industry as himself not just the child of two famous peope. I hope his life turned out to be happy and fulfilling in the main.....
Having eye dr appts before i learned to read, the eye chart was pictures instead of letters.1 picture was a red heart. When the eye dr would point to it, instead of me saying "a red heart", I'd say "I Love Lucy". Mom said the eye dr thought that was so cute & funny, he counted it as a correct answer
Stopped watching at about 2 minutes because at no point does Desi Jr say anything about his life with his mother. This is total BS. ALSO, the computer can’t even pronounce his name correctly!
Desi Osmond Jr. Over here
How sad he was going through such an identity crisis that he would morph himself into Donny Osmond😢😂
RUclips is bleeping lots of words these days.
Why are you showing Donny Osmond?
I don't see that Jr. had a miserable life!!
Doesn't the editor know the difference between Desi Jr. and Donny Osmond? Poor form.
I am no psychiatrist but believe there may be some truth here. Having said that the video shows images of the actor who played Little Ricky (a personal friend of Desi Jr. for many years), and even the actor playing Jerry on the Lucy Show and a few times even Donny Osmond shown as Desi Jr. And I know Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, though divorced, weren't alone - that's half of America. Lucy supported daughter Lucie and son Desi Jr. being on Here's Lucy to sort of keep an eye on them, but that didn't quite work out as she wanted. He did go through recovery with his father, who had a similar alcohol problem and for jr. it was more than alcohol. And he eventually succeeded and was straight. Tragic that his wife Amy passed away so early from cancer, and he is now living well outside show biz. And by the way, Lucy loved Liza - just didn't think she was right for her son for various reasons. And I won't offer inconsistencies - but there are many.
This has si many mistakes in it . Its hard to believe in any credibility of this article.
There are soooooo many issues with this video thus no thumbs up for you. lol
Really?!? CLICK BAIT, CLICK BAIT, CLICK BAIT!!
I'm from Louisiana and I remember little Ricky was played by a kid named
Thibodaux from Louisiana
Do your research. Daisy Arnaz is actually Donny Osmond. Who knew?
another low budget production , with lousy computer narration, and clips of Donnie Osmond instead of Desi...
A few times "Desi" was pronounced more like "Daisy", but then I haven't had coffee yet
That’s closer to the Spanish pronunciation.
Leave my father ALONE !
What genius put Donny Osmond's pictures into Desi Arnez Jr's bio?
Poor Daisy...he actually turned into Donna Osmond at times. I had no idea.
This reminds me of Clive James' discussion of "the Fame Country." Thank you.
The problem was Dezi Sr was an alcoholic. Alcoholic equals chaos.
True. It’s part of the addiction. A very, VERY, sad part but one that needs to be acknowledged.
Desi’s case was definitely a sickness & we needn’t despise people like him so much as help them. I just know (for a fact) it’s sad. 😐🙏
That's what trips me out. When he hired William Frawley, he told him if he so much as looked at alcohol he would be fired. Meanwhile, Desi was drinking like a fish. Everyone knew he was an alcoholic and he and Lucy fought about it often.
@JosephMartin-sj3kz please don't act like addicts have no choice. Nobody forces them to pick up that bottle every day. We're taking all accountability from addicts and look where that's getting us ... addiction is worse than ever.
So handsome
Yea good-looking widh met him
I always thought when Ricky called little Ricky, that he used to say “illegitimate Ricky!” instead of “little Ricky”.
Desi could NEVER deny him! Wow.... I don't see Lucy in him at all XP
Why did You Tube stop keeping count of the thumbs down? Some uploads, like this ridiculous mess, deserve all the thumbs down numbers possible, And YOU TUBE needs to SHOW It!
Right, making a. baby in the 9th grade is a mark of personal responsibility .
Poor pronunciation of names
Hard to "feel sorry" for these rich kids - then and now
a LOT of the clips were NOT of Desi Arnaz Jr but of Donny Osmond!!!! Yes, the mispronunciation of the names also drive me up a wall!
Yes 71 years ago we were born in 1953
Giggle cough
Not until October.
Sometimes Desi Arnaz was Donny Osmond. A little known fact.
His name is Daisy and he looks exactly like Donny Osmond.
The little boy you keep showing on the I Love Lucy show is not Desi Arnaz, Junior
Constantly using really big words just kind of like loses the viewer. Trying to concentrate on what you're trying to say takes away from the story.
Stop calling him Daisy, wow, just horrible.
Very very repeatative
Not finishing this. You didnt do your research.
The kid that actually PLAYED Little Ricky.. I met. He had joined a Christian band called David and the Giants.. 3 brothers whose last name was my mom's til married. We chatted how we could be related. And was cool meeting Little Ricky still playing the drums.
He later got a drug problem. Band broke up. Later he gave life back to Christ.. and the group rejoined for a 40 year reunion tour.
He had gotten married and lives in some souther state by me in FL. His wife has a Ballet business he works with her on.
Point is. The KID wasn't Desi. The BABY was. But not the kid . In the b/w shows.
Besides Donnie Osmond,they are showing different child actors and not Desi Jr.
Desi Arnaz is about 4 or so years older than Donny Osmond.
Why you kept showing Donny Osmond as Desi Arnez Junior is beyond me! I'm 71 years old now and I remember both of these iconic entertainers as young children. I am one month older than Desi Arnaz Jr
Same here. I was born a few days after Desi Jr. I think I still have the magazine cover from 1953 showing the family.
Artificial intelligence screwed this up.
A very good looking man with empathy....
I envy the lucky woman who lands you!
I remember Desi Jr. in a movie called "The Dove" and it was such a good movie and he was so good in it.
They keep showing Osmond in clips instead of Desi!
Poor kid, having to deal with all that wealth and privilege. Gimme a freaking break.
Why does Donny Osmond keep popping up?
This is disgraceful! How can you believe a single word of the audio when they can't even tell the difference between Desi Jr. and Donny Osmond? This video should be deleted.
I turn this off at 428 due to constant Repetition. It was like listening to a robot.
Desi Jr was so handsome
OMG - you’re so wrong putting Donny Osmond in his place.
Dino, Desi and Billy was an ethnic group, no matter what nobody says. Dino (Italian), Desi (Cuban/Latino) Billy (Filipino). They just passed for white.. The one-drop rule is reversed, here...
