Jeanie Buss told stepbrother he ‘should never have been born’
Los Angeles The Lakers organization was a family empire for who knows how long, and have tried to live up to the legacy built by their father, Jerry Bass. As exciting as it is to run a business with your family, it can sometimes lead to problems.
This seemed to be an issue with the Buss family, and things eventually got out of hand during a conversation between them Jeanie Buss and her younger half-brother, Jesse Buss.
During that conversation, things seemed civil at first, but what Ginny told Jessie later would be have a great effect about their family dynamic and business, according to ESPN’s Baxter Holmes.
Going down the family tree, Jeannie and Jesse are half-siblings, as Jerry had two children with his girlfriend Karen Demel in the mid-1980s. Those two children are Jesse and Joey. After learning more about the family tea, Jeanie eventually tells Jesse, “You should never have been born.
Many couldn’t believe that Ginny had come out and told her half-brother that, including the three people who were notified of the call.
“It’s astonishing that she would say that,” someone said through Holmes. “I don’t care who you are. You don’t tell anyone else that.”
“Why would that be thrown in someone’s face? I don’t know,” said another person.
Even Jenny Buss couldn’t believe Ginny had uttered those remarks.
“I can’t imagine my sister saying that, but it was true,” Jenny said.
Apparently, that was the “beginning of the end” for the Lakers family, and later Jesse, Joey, Jim, Johnny, and Jenny were fired from their roles on the team, the only sibling left behind Selling a $10 billion franchise it was Jeanie herself.
