There was some overlap between fact and fiction when it came to Ball and Arnaz's family. The I Love Lucy episode when Lucy gives birth to Little Ricky - later played by young drumming prodigy Keith Thibodeaux - aired on the same day that Lucille Ball had a Caesarian section to deliver Desi Arnaz Jr. It was all on purpose, Arnaz Jr. says.
