Although O'Neill had two children, Keegan and Sara, with his ex-wife Vera Day, Dunaway wanted her own child. So in 1980, the couple welcomed their son, Liam, Dunaway O'Neill.

At first, Dunaway told the media that she had hidden her pregnancy from the public because O'Neill was going through his divorce from Day, and the new couple did not want to upset O'Neill's two children.

Rumors suggesting Liam was adopted circled, but O'Neill denied the allegations. While Dunaway

to People Magzine the year after Liam was born that she could "be very quiet when I want to" in regards to how she kept the pregnancy a secret.

However, years later, the couple revealed the truth about Liam's birth. He was adopted. O'Neill explained that Dunaway had always wanted to be a mother, but it was not happening biologically for her as he said:

"She wanted to be a mother, but there came a point when she had to face the fact that kids were not coming."
