New York, Apr 27 : It looks like Mel Gibson's Russian lover is a good friend of Senator Ted Kennedy.
Oksana Grigorieva's, who also has a son with former 007 star Timothy Dalton, met the senator in Washington during a fund-raiser for Bill Clinton, and seems to have left good impression on him.
Just six weeks later, when her parents in Russia attempted to get a visa to visit her and their new grandchild, they were refused.
And it was Kennedy, who helped Grigorieva's parents get their visas.
