In the aftermath of the accident, Mariska and Zoltan’s older brother, Mickey Hargitay Jr., recalls he thought he saw his mother sitting in the front seat of the car he was in, only to realize he was “in a car with a blonde-haired woman who had helped rescue the children.”

Mariska Hargitay honored her late mother Jayne Mansfield by wearing a beaded suit inspired by the actress to her Monday appearance on the “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.” The “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” star put a chic twist on a gown Mansfield wore in 1958, sporting a classic black suit embellished with silver beads.
