I think she does and she's keeping her mouth shut. I can understand why she doesn't wanna reveal it. I don't think she wants them to know because she was really young. She kinda hints she and Sam had an affair [["read between the lines"). Of course with Clarence, it's understandable why she won't talk about that. And more power to her.

Her father was on my ish list anyway because he had a daughter with some little kid while he was still married to Aretha's mother, who didn't abandon her by the way. Her relationship with C. L. [[aka Clarence LaVaughn) was reportedly very volatile.
