She was born to her late mother, a store clerk, when she was 40. Unfortunately, just a few months before she was born, her biological father abandoned her pregnant mother. Tammy Bruce never met her father and was unaware of his existence.
According to an exclusive interview with Politico Playbook, Tammy Bruce’s father worked for famous moms like Bugsy Siegel and Sam Giancana. Meanwhile, her now-deceased mother had a one-time relationship with him.
“I am the product of an affair my mother had with a man she explained was a law enforcement officer for a mafia boss named Bugsy Siegel and later Sam Giancana. He left when she became pregnant, so, never knowing my father, I developed a genealogical interest as I searched for details about my other half,” she said.
