1953, Ricky  and Lucy slept in twin beds that were pushed together in the same  box spring. Once little Ricky was born CBS suggested that the beds  be pushed apart to diminish the impact of the suggested sexual  history of Lucy and Ricky. The only time we see the Ricardos in two  bed pushed together again is when they first move to the bigger  apartment in the Mertz building, however, subsequently after that  the beds are pushed apart again.
