IS IT TRUE? Leighton Meester Born in Prison
Yes!
According to Star Magazine, Leighton Meester, who plays the privileged Blair Waldorf in the hot TV series Gossip Girl, was born while her mother was serving a federal prison sentence in Texas.
The mom was allowed to stay in a halfway house for the birth, but had to return to prison on the day Leighton turned three months. The future star was raised by a relative while mom served out her sentence for her role in a major drug-running ring.
Does she have other family members with a criminal past?
Yes!
Her father, grandfather and aunt all did hard time in federal prisons for drug dealing!
