Debby Boone Shares Her 'Less Than Glamorous' Frank Sinatra Story (VIDEO)

Debby Boone's Embarrassing Frank Sinatra Moment
|

As the daughter of entertainer Pat Boone, Debby Boone grew up around some of Hollywood's biggest stars -- including the legendary Frank Sinatra. But it wasn't always glitz and glamour. During an interview for "Oprah: Where Are They Now?" Boone shared an embarrassing experience she had on Ol' Blue Eyes' property.

When Boone was three months pregnant with her first son, she and her husband Gabriel Ferrer stayed in one of the guest houses on Sinatra's compound. Despite her recurring morning sickness, Boone and Ferrer decided to join other celebrities on the compound for breakfast one morning.

"Who's not going to go eat with all the other celebs and Frank?" she said in the interview.

Walking through the property on their way to breakfast, Boone's morning sickness kicked in. "I start to get queasy," she recalled. "I run, I try to get back to the guest house in time but I don't make it."

Boone had to stop and ended up getting sick in the bushes. That's when she noticed an electronic-type sound. "It was a sound-activated security camera!" she said. "So somewhere, there's a tape of me, three months pregnant, looking... much less than glamorous."

An all-new season of "Oprah: Where Are They Now?" returns on Sunday, June 1, at 10 p.m. ET on OWN.
