Jaclyn Smith: Warren Beatty Involved in Affair Discovery
9 Sep
Summary
- Smith learned of husband's affair when bumping into Warren Beatty.
- Husband was having an affair with their real estate agent.
- Smith has been married four times, facing infidelity twice.
Jaclyn Smith recently detailed the shocking discovery of her first husband Roger Davis's infidelity, revealing Warren Beatty's unexpected involvement. Over five decades ago, while house hunting in New York City, Smith encountered Beatty, who offered her a film role. At that moment, Davis appeared and declined the opportunity for her, unaware that he was simultaneously involved with their real estate agent. This betrayal marked the beginning of Smith's learning experiences regarding love and marriage.
Smith's first marriage to Davis, which began in 1968, ended after she found him with another woman two years after the incident. Reflecting on this period, she noted her youthful naivete but emphasized the importance of recognizing when a relationship has fundamentally changed. Her subsequent marriages also faced challenges; she divorced Dennis Cole due to infidelity in 1981, and her union with cinematographer Anthony B. Richmond ended in 1989 due to his addiction struggles.
Despite past relationship difficulties, Smith found happiness in her fourth marriage to Dr. Brad Allen, whom she met in 1991 when he treated her father. She describes Allen as a devoted husband and a wonderful stepfather to her children, Gaston and Spencer-Margaret, whom she had with Richmond. Smith expressed fulfillment in finally achieving her lifelong desire for a stable family life.
