AceShowbiz - Kerry Washington spilled a family secret in her memoir "Thicker Than Water". In the tell-all book, the "Scandal" actress recalled how she found out that her dad, Earl Washington, isn't her biological father. She shared that she learned the truth when she was about to take part in the "Finding Your Roots" series with Henry Louis Gates Jr.
At the time, Kerry's parents refused to take a DNA test, leading Henry to try to convince them. Once Kerry discovered the truth, she wrote, "The moment that he told me, I realized that I had the opportunity to, for the first time, love my father unconditionally. That he got to hear me say, 'I love you, even though I know.' "
