She opened up about the life-changing event while discussing her new memoir, “Thicker Than Water,” on TODAY with Hoda & Jenna Sept. 26.
Kerry Washington is opening up about how she learned that her dad is not her biological father.
She said her parents asked her to come home to visit because they had something important to tell her. This came after she’d announced to her family her intention to appear on “Finding Your Roots,” a show that features celebrities learning about their family history through DNA testing, which she mentions in her new memoir titled “Thicker Than Water.”
"It was shocking, but there was also something strangely familiar," she recalled."There was like a confirmation."
