James Dean was allegedly blackmailed by a “desperate” lover who threatened to destroy his career if he didn’t comply with her demands.
According to an outlet, Pier Angeli, the actress who had been in a brief relationship with Dean before his tragic death, reportedly attempted to blackmail him. The alleged incident took place two years after their breakup.
Angeli and Dean were in a romantic relationship from 1957 to 1958 when she rejected his proposal due to her mother’s disapproval of their union.
