File this story under "ewww" but Mackenzie Phillips is making some nasty claims in her new tell-all book High on Arrival, out Wednesday.

Mackenzie claims that her father, John Phillips and her engaged in a consensual affair and had even considered moving to another country where incestuous relationships were more accepted. She alleges it began when her father tried to stop her wedding.

"On the eve of my wedding, my father showed up, determined to stop it," she writes. "I had tons of pills, and Dad had tons of everything, too. Eventually I passed out on Dad's bed. My father was not a man with boundaries. He was full of love, and he was sick with drugs. I woke up that night from a blackout to find myself having sex with my own father."

Eventually, Mackenzie began an affair with her father, who died in 2001.

"One night, Dad said, 'We could just run away to a country where no one would look down on us. There are countries where this is an accepted practice. Maybe Fiji.' He was completely delusional. 'No,' I thought, 'we're going to hell for this.'"

MacKenzie has had a long history of drug addiction. Just over a year ago, Mackenzie was passing through screening   at LAX when baggies and balloons containing heroin and cocaine were uncovered by officials. She plead guilty and a judge ordered her into a drug rehabilitation program.

Phillips' first role was in American Graffiti. Her career peaked in the 1970s and '80s during her role of Julie Cooper Horvath on One Day at a Time.   John Phillips was known as Papa John from the 1960’s band, The Mamas & The Papas. John Phillips is the father to Jeffrey, Mackenzie, Chynna, Tamerlane and Bijou.
