Unlike her on-screen sister Mackenzie Phillips, the 20-year-old co-star of "One Day at a Time" had fostered a squeaky clean image before meeting Eddie.

During the run-up, though, Eddie tearfully admitted to Monk that he’d hooked up with the woman filing the paternity suit — although he said their encounters were limited to oral sex in his car.

On their wedding day, Eddie and Valerie were late for the reception. Monk investigated and found the newlyweds together in the bathroom. Valerie, still in her gown, tears streaming down her cheeks, was cradling Eddie's drunken head "over a toilet bowl," Monk writes. "Pulling his hair back to make sure it didn't become encrusted with puke!"
