Ronan Farrow is the son of star parents, but he was able to achieve success in life only thanks to his talent, intelligence and charm. This is a world-famous human rights activist, successful lawyer, journalist, statesman. Only with his perseverance and thirst for knowledge could he prove to the whole world that success loves aspirants who are stubbornly moving towards their goal.
Mystery of birth
Ronan Farrow was born into a famous family. To understand what is the secret of his birth, we turn to the history of the personal life of his mother - the famous actress Mia Farrow.
Mia, like many stars, led a shocking life. 1966 was a turning point in her life: she became famous thanks to the marriage with world-famous star Frank Sinatra. At that time, the groom was 30 years older than the bride, who was a little over 20 years old. The marriage was short-lived - only a couple of years. After that, the woman married a couple of times, until in 1980, Woody Allen appeared in her fate.
In this marriage, after 7 years of cohabitation (December 19, 1987), a child was born, the hero of our story, Ronan Farrow.
What is the intrigue? The Yellow Press from the very beginning sounded the alarm, doubting who the father of this child was. After all, it is reliably known that Mia maintained contact with Sinatra throughout the entire time. And these relations were not only friendly.
Woody Allen or Frank Sinatra?
Perhaps the issue of Ronan's birth would not have been raised so sharply by the press if his mother herself had not made a sensational statement. Mia and Woody Allen have long been enemies, so the 68-year-old woman said that her son's father could be Sinatra.
Although ... If you look closely at the photographs, Ronan Farrow and Frank Sinatra are very similar to each other. There is no resemblance to Woody Allen at all.
When the secret was ajar, Sinatra turned 78 years old. Paternity has never been proven or disputed, DNA tests have not been conducted. It remains only to look at the photo and wonder if it is true or not.
It is worth noting also the fact that Ronan does not communicate with Woody Allen. The scandal in the star family occurred when the cult American director married Sun-i Preven. It is known that she is the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow. About 12 years the family lived under one roof, before it turned out that the stepdaughter and the adoptive father love each other. The outcome of the long litigation was the deprivation of Woody the right to communicate with Ronan and his other adoptive children.
Successful Ronan
It should be noted that Ronan Farrow, whose photo you see in the article, at birth received the name Satchel. He acquired a familiar name by changing it of his own free will.
From childhood, the boy was distinguished by his mind. Science was easily given to him, he studied with pleasure. As an 11-year-old boy, Ronan went to study at Bard College. At the age of 15, our hero successfully defended his thesis on philosophy and political science. After graduating from this institution, Ronan became a student at the Department of Jurisdiction at Yale University.

The young man noted that such an idea came to him during communication with youth.
