Actress Tuesday Weld was born Susan Ker Weld and it was not, as you might expect, on a Tuesday. It was Friday, August 27, 1943—a fateful day in the middle of Manhattan. But before you get images in your head of a privileged Manhattan upbringing, think again. While Weld’s father’s family had a lot of money, her father didn’t. Weld's family lived a p...
Weld’s father, Lathrop Motley Weld, was the black sheep of the family. He had some serious baggage: addiction and a scandalous romantic history. After all, Weld's mother was her father's fourth wife. It could be that the onlything good about Lathrop was his ability to access his parents’ money. If that tap were ever to dry up, Weld would be in a he...
Just before she turned four, Susan Weld faced her very first crisis. Her small family became even smaller: Lathrop passed suddenly and left them in a terrible financial position. Weld’s mother, Yosene Balfour Ker, had her hands full with three kids and no source of income. What could she do? She needed a guardian angel. However, what she got was so...
Weld, her mother, and her siblings were living in a shabby, cold-water flat in a Manhattan slum—and still barely making rent. Weld’s father’s wealthy family saw the difficult position that Weld and her family were in. They lived up in Tuxedo Park—which was about as fancy as it sounds—and could easily help out the family with some much-needed cash. ...

It’s strange because Yosene’s father was a Canadian-American illustrator whose drawings appeared in Life Magazine.She was also related...
Yes, Weld’s mother had come from a fine family, but it turned out she’d been an orphan. The Welds held this against her because they had no idea who her real family had been. They assumed that she came from trashy roots and wanted her as far away from her children as possible. Yosene took one look at her three lovely children—and made a bold decisi...
Yosene couldn't bear to part with her three children, so she said no thank you to the Welds’ twisted offer. That, however, left her alone and without an income to feed and clothe her three children. It was in this desperate moment that Yosene noticed something about her daughter Susan that gave her an idea. Susan was remarkably pretty, and Yosene h...
Yosene was desperate for money, so she tried to find work for young Susan as a model. Weld’s young life soon became filled with countless auditions. To make matters worse, she had the added pressure of earning money for food, as well as supporting her mother emotionally. Yosene expected Weld to fix all the problems in her life. All of this happened...
At nine years old, the pressures of being a replacement father to a family of four were too much for Weld, and she had a nervous breakdown. Yosene took the opportunity to move the family to Fort Lauderdale, where Weld could finally attend school more regularly—away from all the auditions back in New York City. Sadly it was too late for Susan Weld t...
Weld had very grown-up problems, so she turned to a very grown-up solution:booze. By 10, she already had a pretty serious addiction. However, the pressures of providing for a family still remained, so Weld had to start working again. This time, her mother left the other kids with a friend in Fort Lauderdale and took Weld back to the Big Apple. It w...
