Phillips' story isn't without its detractors: Her former stepmother, Genevieve Waite, released a statement to the "Oprah Winfrey Show" denouncing Phillips' account.
"I am stunned by Mackenzie's terrible allegations about her father," Waite wrote. "I would often complain about her overly familiar attitudes towards him, and he said it was just her way. John was a good man. ... He was incapable, no matter how drunk or drugged he was, to have sexual relations with his own child."
"McKenzie's drug addiction for 35 years has been the result of many unpleasant experiences," Michelle Phillips, John Phillips' second wife, told CNN in a statement. "Whether her relationship with her father is delusional or not, it is an unfortunate circumstance and very hurtful for our entire family."
ETA: I don't know why the pregnancy would stop the relationship after 10 years. Wasn't the abuse just as horrific? And for those who watched Oprah, did you notice how Mac was talking to the audience as one would talk to a jury. She hardly acknowledged Oprah. Just my opinion.
I can only imagine what this is doing to the entire family, and believe it should have been kept behind a therapist's door - not in front of the world.
I, for one, will not be buying the book.
