Marlon Brando and Tuki Brando: Grandfather and Grandson
Tuki Brando may have a glamorous surname (all thanks to his grandfather, actor Marlon Brando) and a family legacy like no other, but his early life was quite tragic. He was raised by his maternal grandmother and Marlon’s third and final wife Tarita Teriipaia, who eventually divorced his grandfather. This was because Tiki’s mom, Cheyenne Brando, committed suicide when he was just 5, allegedly because her drunk half brother had shot and killed her husband (Tiki’s father) when she was 8 months pregnant with Tuki. After such a rough past, Tuki still rose from the ashes to become a much-sought-after fashion model, earning himself some top dollar. Although, he looks so much like Marlon, it’s sad that he never had a relationship with his grandfather, who didn’t even leave him anything in his will when he passed away in 2004.
