Screen beauty turned boozy has- been AVA GARDNER’s shocking tall-all secrets – bedding everyone from Frank Sinatra to Mickey Rooney and Howard Hughes!
Ava Gardner was a broke alcoholic when in 1988, in a desperate bid to raise some cash, she decided to write her memoir and made what turned out to be a deathbed confessions detailing her many affairs and marriages.
She died in 1990 after canceling the project and her ghostwriter, Peter Evans, took the tapes to his grave. But they've been compiled in the new book, Ava Gardner: The Secret Conversations and the book is a no-holds-barred tell-all spectacular of booze driven debauchery.
Her first husband was Mickey Rooney who she revealed had the nickname Mickey Hard-On.
