A detailed resume! Melissa Rivers became famous as a TV presenter with her mother, the late Joan Rivers, when they hit the headlines for many years, criticizing the outfits of celebrities in Fashion Police as an invincible mother and daughter duo.
“If you have a good relationship with someone, you will miss them every day, especially Mom. You’ll miss them all the time.”
At the time , she added: “Grief is so isolating, but it’s universal. This is what everyone goes through at some point in their life. I can’t believe it’s been four years, especially since I’m still undergoing storage!”
The host of the podcast “Group Text with Melissa Rivers,” the mother of 21-year-old son Cooper, used her mother’s legacy as inspiration for her new memoirs. “The lies my mother told me: Tales of a short woman” will be released on Tuesday, April 12.
