Daughter’s New Memoir Claims Nancy Reagan Tricked The Future President Into Marriage By Getting Pregnant

The Daily Mail reports:

Nancy Reagan convinced the future president, Ronald Reagan, to marry her after getting pregnant by him in 1952, their first-born, Patti Davis, reveals in a new memoir. “I tend to doubt that getting pregnant was a result of carelessness,” writes Davis in her new book, Dear Mom and Dad: A Letter About Family, Memory, and the America We Once Knew, which is out of February 6.

Davis, now 71, asserts that Nancy’s out-of-wedlock pregnancy carrying Patti, was the secret reason for her parents’ union. The future two-term commander-in-chief was happy playing the field “and was not exactly anxious to get married again,” writes Davis. But it was a dinner date with Ronnie at the Hollywood celebrity restaurant Chasen’s where Nancy dropped the shocker that she was two months pregnant.

Davis was born six months after the wedding.
