Unsubstantiated gossip doesn't address the topic.

  In 1962, there were allegations that Marx fathered a son, Freddy, out of wedlock by his housekeeper, Helene Demuth, but the claim is disputed for lack of documented evidence.

Thank you for pointing this out. I wasn't aware it was disputed.

    Disputed or not, it's still an ad hominem side show.
