The recent and tragic suicide of Bacharach`s daughter by Angie Dickinson has given rise to a re-hash of their marriage and the subsequent divorce.
In an account which I read in one of the London papers, Dickinson alleges that Bacharach was documented in the press as having been unfaithful during their marriage on several occasions.
I found this hard to believe, as when I interviewed him in the late sixties he was absolutely smitten to AD and could not stop raving about her.
That said, his folks were hard to take and as grandparents must have been awful. They were Waspy Jews with very Nazi prejudices. When I was a cub reporter I went on a press tour with them. When someone in Italy said that things were better off without the Jews, the Bacharachs and their friends agreed. I was shocked.
With grandparents like that.....
