At 92 years old, legendary actress Angie Dickinson has finally revealed the man who stole her heart and has been considered the love of her life: the iconic crooner Frank Sinatra. This revelation has captivated fans and Hollywood alike, shedding light on their passionate on-and-off romance that spanned two decades.
Their journey began in 1953 on the set of the Colgate Comedy Hour, where Sinatra was immediately taken by Dickinson’s beauty and charm. Despite her initial reservations, Sinatra’s persistence paid off, and their connection blossomed into something truly special.
Their on-screen chemistry was undeniable, especially in their iconic film “Ocean’s 11,” where Dickinson portrayed Sinatra’s wife. Their real-life relationship only deepened during the filming, sparking discussions of marriage. However, Dickinson’s concerns about Sinatra’s late-night lifestyle and her desire to maintain a positive relationship with his ex-wife, Nancy, prevented them from tying the knot.
Although they never married, Dickinson’s love and admiration for Sinatra remained unwavering. She often spoke fondly of their time together, in awe of his extraordinary talent and the deep connection they shared. Even after marrying composer Bert Barak in 1965 and having a daughter, Dickinson continued to hold Sinatra in high regard.
