Buell, who was the Miss November 1974 Playboy Playmate, had a brief fling with Steven in late 1976, which ultimately resulted in their daughter’s birth in New York City the following July. Up until that point, Liv believed that Utopia singer Todd Rundgren was her biological father. Soon afterward, she confronted her mother, model and musician Bebe Buell, and discovered that her suspicion was correct. “My mom has a diary entry or something where I wrote, ‘I think Steven is my father,’” she explained in 1997.
