Los Angeles, May 14 (PTI) Despite being happily married to actress Joanne Woodward, Hollywood legend Paul Newman had a secret homosexual relationship with James Dean, claims a new unauthorised biography of the 'Hustler' star.
Darwin Porter, the author of 'Paul Newman: The Man Behind The Baby Blues' told the Globe that he has been tracking Newman's personal life since 1959.
Porter's new book on Newman claims to reveal a number of secrets related to the movie legend's sex-life, including one in which Marlon Brando called him a bisexual.
The actor's family has dismissed Porter's book, claiming the sex allegations are "disgusting".
Porter said that he had interviewed 'The Godfather' actor before his death in 2004, where the Oscar-winner let go of some startling facts about Newman.
"He never fooled me. Paul Newman had just as many on-location affairs as the rest of us, and he was just as bisexual as I was. But, where I was always getting caught with my pants down, he managed to do it in the dark," Porter quotes Brando in his new book.
The author claims that Newman bedded icons like Grace Kelly, Judy Garland, Natalie Wood and Marilyn Monroe.
"Paul knew there were rumours out there about his sexuality and to have to face them when he's not here to dispute them is Joanne's worst nightmare," said a source. PTI
