Roseanne Barr's firstborn daughter grew up thinking her biological mom was Goldie Hawn

Brandi then connected with Roseanne when she was 17 and a half, but admitted she was surprised to discover she was her birth parent.

Speaking to Bunnie XO on her Dumb Blonde podcast, she said: "I was on TV, and that's how [she] found me. All she knew was that her mother was famous in Hollywood, and Jewish.

"She thought Goldie Hawn was her mom, because she looked just like Goldie Hawn."

Roseanne claimed her then-partner Tom Arnold - who she went on to marry in 1990 but split from four years later -had attempted to sell the story of her giving up her baby to the National Enquirer, which was how Brandi learned who her birth mother was.

She said: "The Enquirer called her, and she answered the phone, my daughter, and they said, 'Would you like to know who your mother is?' And she's all excited thinking it's going to be Goldie Hawn.

"And they go, 'It's Roseanne Barr.' And her words are so hilarious. She goes, 'Christ, I didn't even know she was a Jew,' which is so hilarious."

But when Brandi saw photos of Roseanne, she realised the resemblance.

The comedienne said Brandi exclaimed: "Oh my God, I do look just like her!"

She added: "And she took the picture to the mirror and was going, 'I do, I look exactly like her.' "

The following day, Roseanne met with Brandi and her mother and not only was the meeting "wonderful", they have stayed in touch ever since.

Roseanne said: "We've been back together since then, and she is now 53. And she is awesome. She has a son and a lovely husband, and she's a wonderful woman."

The former Roseanne star also has children Jessica, Jennifer and Jake with first husband Bill Pentland - who she was wed to from 1974 to 1990 - and son Buck with third spouse Ben Thomas, who she split from in 2002 after seven years of marriage.
