In April 1951, Jerry Lewis recorded a romantic anniversary song for his wife Patti, expressing deep love and devotion. At the same time, he was secretly involved with model Lynn Dixon, who was pregnant with his child. Later that year, while filming in Georgia, Jerry wrote Patti an emotional letter, describing his longing for her and their family. Despite his passionate words, his affair resulted in the birth of his daughter Suzan with Dixon just months after the letter. This episode highlights the stark contrast between Lewis’s public declarations of love and the complexities of his private life.
