Meet Julia Arnaz, Lucille Ball And Desi Arnaz's Granddaughter

It was 1989 and Lucille Ball had just passed away. Julia Arnaz had been told by her mother that Ball was her grandmother, but she never knew the famous comedienne. Ball's death, however, prompted her to find out if what her mother said was true.

"We did a DNA test when I was 20 and it came back 99.97% that I was indeed his daughter and then shortly after that my father and I started a beautiful relationship," Julia told Page Six in May of 2021. "By this time, I'm 18 and over. He could have said, 'Yeah she's my kid, whatever.' But he didn't. He helped me very much through my life and helped my daughter through college."

Julia also has a younger sister through her father. As of this writing, Desi Arnaz Jr. still lives in Boulder City, Nevada, which has been his home since the 1990s. He spent most of his time there with his wife Amy Bargiel and their daughter Haley. Sadly, Amy died in 2015.
