California Woman is a Long-Lost Daughter of a TV Actress

Wright noted that her adoptive parents always told her that her biological mother loves her. Wright furthered that her adoptive parents also explained that her biological mother was young and unable to take care of her when she was born.

Wright's search for her biological mother was only prompted when she was 54 years old, as her son urged her to take a DNA test. The test will reveal the woman's genetic heritage. After the test, Wright matched with her uncle, whom she eventually had a conversation with. The uncle revealed that her mother is TV actress Lynne Moody, adding that their whole family was looking for her.

The California woman expressed that the conversation with her mother was the "most indescribable feeling."

"I grew up watching my mother and didn't even know it," said Wright in Today. Moody acted in a Television show entitled "That's My Mama," which happened to be the favorite show of Wright's adoptive family. The show ran for two seasons in the mid-1970s.

Wright noted that her adoptive family would sit down and tune in to the show without knowing that Moody was her biological mother.

TV Actress on Meeting Her Daughter

TV actress Lynne Moody compared the first encounter between her and Wright to a moment when she was giving birth. Moody noted that she was on a floor in a fetal position while screaming and crying. The TV actress also noted that she never had any other children apart from Wright, and she always hoped that she would reunite with her daughter.

Moody also noted in Today that when Wright was born, Moody's face was covered, but she can still hear her cry. "All I could say is I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Baby, I'm sorry." The TV Actress also noted that she tried to learn how to live without her daughter during the 50 years they were apart.

Lynne Moody is an American TV actress and is still active in the industry. Her recent acting role was in "The Heights of a Perfect Reunion," where she played the role of principal Marilyn Bryant. Both women happened to live in Los Angeles, California, as they try to look for each other. It was confirmed by Wright's uncle when she talked to him over the phone.

Moody noted that she was not expecting the sudden turn of events. Meanwhile, the adoptive parents of the California woman passed away before she met her TV actress mother.
