Happy Birthday Milton Berle! Henry Fonda once joked about there almost being a 'Henrylu' at a Dean Martin Celebrity Roast of Lucille Ball. In the inscription on this photo to Milton, Lucy makes a similar joke about their 'almost' relationship from the 1930's. 'Although Lucy and Berle were strongly attracted to each other, no woman stood a chance of landing him, because of the influence of Mrs. Sarah Berlinger, the monster stage mother of them all.'—Warren G. Harris, Lucy & Desi, The Legendary Love Story of Television's Most Famous Couple "There was no way that Milton and I could be together. Mama was around ALL the time."—Lucy "I saw this beautiful girl walking down the lot. It was the first time I saw a girl with completely white slacks. I took her to the Trocadero, found out she was from Jamestown, and we became friends. In those days if I went out with a girl more than a few times, my mother broke it up."—Milton Berle #lucilleball #miltonberle #unclemilty #ilovelucy #happybirthday #hollywoodlegends #thelucyshow #stagemother #jokes https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf5xU9juSn0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
