Personal Life

Lasko and Letterman have one child together.
Harry Joseph Letterman was born on November 3, 2003 and was named after Letterman’s father.
When Henry was 1-1/2, an alleged plot to have him kidnapped was uncovered.
An individual phoned law enforcement after he was approached by Kelly Allen Frank.
— employed at Letterman’s Montana ranch — about taking Henry for $5 million ransom.
On March, 17, 2005, Mike Ferriter of the state Department of Corrections elaborated to People about the alleged plot.
“An individual was approached by Mr. Frank, an acquaintance of some kind, about his thought on the kidnapping, and (Frank) shared his idea with this individual.
I’m not sure if he asked him to assist or be a part of it.”[4]
Ultimately, the individual contacted the police and Frank was brought into custody on a felony charge of solicitation.
He was later arrested and arraigned.[6]
The same year she married David, a sex scandal emerged with a TV producer coming out and blackmailing the legendary Late-Night show host in regards to his various affairs with female employees throughout the years.
As a response, Letterman confronted the issue on national television and confessed to having affairs.
