Mariska Hargitay's Deeply Personal Journey in "My Mom Jayne"
There’s something incredibly powerful about revisiting the past—especially when it’s as iconic and complex as that of Jayne Mansfield. HBO’s new original documentary, My Mom Jayne , premiering June 27 at 8 p.m. ET on Crave, is not just another celebrity biography. It’s a heartfelt and intimate film directed by none other than Mariska Hargitay—Jayne’s daughter—who was only three years old when her mother tragically died in a car accident at the age of 34.

As I talk about this documentary, I can’t help but feel the emotional weight of it. Mariska, now a respected actress in her own right, takes us on a deeply personal journey to understand and connect with the mother she barely knew. Through the lens of never-before-seen home videos, rare photographs, and intimate interviews, My Mom Jayne becomes more than a documentary—it becomes a daughter’s search for identity and belonging.
We all know Jayne Mansfield as the blonde bombshell of the 1950s and '60s, a Hollywood starlet who lived loudly and loved even louder. But what was she like away from the cameras, when the lights dimmed and the applause faded? That’s what Mariska is determined to uncover. She isn't just piecing together Jayne's public persona, but rather exploring the private, often overlooked layers of her life—the woman who was a mother, a friend, a dreamer.
What’s remarkable is how Mariska opens up emotionally, making this film not just a tribute, but an act of healing. It’s clear that this is not just about legacy—it’s about reclaiming lost time and reconnecting through memory. Watching My Mom Jayne promises to be a reflective and moving experience, not only for those familiar with Jayne Mansfield’s life but for anyone who has ever yearned to know more about their roots.
This isn’t just a story about fame and tragedy. It’s about love, loss, and the enduring bond between a mother and daughter.
