Doris Day’s Pen Pal Reveals She Wanted To Reconnect With Her Estranged Grandson
A pen pal of Doris Day reveals that the late actress wanted to reconnect with her estranged grandson, Ryan Melcher.
Doris’s manager, Bob Bashara, was forcing Ryan not to see his
grandmother. Speculation was already occurring when Ryan accused Bob of
keeping Doris’s loved ones away from her.
Now, prolific pen pal Mike DeVita has confirmed that Bob indeed kept Doris away from her loved ones purposely. Ryan originally said that Bob kept him from having dinner with his late grandmother that she had requested herself. Doris’s publicist at the time came out saying that Doris made the decision to not see her grandson, which turns out, was false information.
Mike DeVita, who had traded more than 500 letters with Doris while she was alive, was just as confused about the dinner cancelation as Ryan was.
Ryan originally claims that Bob used his position to influence Doris to cut out other family members and to complete replace her long-time staff with his own family. As a result of everything, Ryan had to learn of his grandmother’s death through social media.
“I received the news of my grandmother’s passing like many of you — I awoke and read the news in a social media feed Monday morning,” Ryan reveals to his following. “Sadly, due to a divorce that I was thrown into the middle of while still an underaged child, I have not been allowed to see my grandmother for quite some time. When I was invited by Doris to dinner a few years ago after my father’s untimely death in November 2004 (melanoma), her new business manager, a former fan, intervened and asked me to meet him at the family-owned Cypress Inn here in Carmel, California.”
Ryan shares that he experiences a lot of confusion by Bob forcing him to stay away from his grandmother. He also says that looking back on everything he “should have said more.”
DeVita says he can’t speak much about what role Bob played exactly in the estranged grandson case. But he does say that he shares similarities with all of Doris’s exes. “Doris was very trusting. She was manipulated all her life, usually by her husbands. She was looking for the father she never had with her husbands — and even Bob.”
At this time, it remains unclear what will become of the nearly $5 million in assets belonging to Doris’s animal welfare foundation.

Her pen pal didn’t understand the story about estranged grandson
Mike DeVita, who had traded more than 500 letters with Doris while she was alive, was just as confused about the dinner cancelation as Ryan was.
“The
story with the grandson is so weird,” he says. “Doris really wanted to
reconnect.” He also adds that Doris was exploited by her ex-husbands.
She would often look to them as father figures and would look to Bob as
one as well.

He doesn’t understand why he can’t see his grandmother
Ryan continues, “I was asked by this man: “Why do you want to see Doris?” I was shocked not only at the question but also that it was coming from someone who was a stranger and outsider. I just responded, “um….she is my grandmother!” He replied, “I’m afraid you aren’t going to be able to see your grandmother,” citing the divorce between my parents as his excuse.”Ryan shares that he experiences a lot of confusion by Bob forcing him to stay away from his grandmother. He also says that looking back on everything he “should have said more.”

This is such a heartbreaking situation to be in.
Take a look at all of the initial details from Ryan Melcher’s accusations toward Bob Bashara.
