Chynna Phillips Had Father John Phillips Escort Her Down The Aisle Despite Pre-Wedding ‘Earth-Shattering’ Discovery

Over the years, Chynna Phillips had a complicated relationship with her father, John Phillips. She publicly supported her half-sister Mackenzie Phillips, who alleged in her 2009 memoir that she and their dad had an on-and-off sexual relationship for ten years.

In a recent development, Chynna explained the events that transpired a few days before walking down the aisle in 1995. The daughter of The Mamas & The Papas singer revealed that her famous dad, who passed away on 18th March 2001, dropped a shocking confession in her lap the night before she married her husband, Billy Baldwin.

In her latest YouTube video titled “My Wedding Nightmare”, the 56-year-old opened up about the conversation. “We talked about stuff that was pretty earth-shattering, and a lot had come to the surface, and my father was having a ton of feelings, and, of course, that made me have a ton of feelings, and I remember I was up all night just weeping and [felt] numb as well,” Chynna stated.

“I would weep, and then I would go stoic again, and then I would weep, and then I would go stoic again, and it was because my father had just revealed some really big information to me, and I just felt blindsided by it,” she added.

The 56-year-old shared that despite the uneasy conversation, she held a hopeful belief that her father never harbored any intentions to cause her harm. “I know it sounds horrible that my dad would do that to me on the night before my wedding, but he didn’t intend to do that, it was more like it just evolved in our conversation the night before I got married,” Chynna admitted. “And I don’t think it was any coincidence that he was walking me down the aisle with my mother, and I think he felt like he needed to come clean before he walked me down the aisle for his own conscience. I felt that he felt that he needed to do that just so that it was genuine.”

“I remember I didn’t sleep much the night before, and I had a lot of adrenaline running through my system as well, because of information,” she confessed. “But at the same time, it was one of the most priceless conversations I’ve ever had with my father, and it was definitely, bar none, the most honest conversation I’d had with my father, and the most raw and real conversation I’d ever had with my dad.”
