Actor Robert Wagner is coming clean about a closely kept secret that he has guarded for many years. He is hitting the talk show circuit to hype his autobiography, Pieces of My Heart, co-authored with Scott Eyman. His secret was an affair with a much older woman…Barbara Stanwyck.
The age difference between the two was 23 years and the affair took place when Robert was 22 and Barbara was 45. The affair went on for four years. Stanwyck has been portrayed over the years as anything but easy going.
Wagner revealed that she gave him “self-esteem” and he reports that Barbara was the one to end their affair because of hectic work schedules and of course the age difference.
In the book he alludes that he would have been known to the world as “Mr. Stanwyck” and that must not have been the image he was trying to build.
Another hot topic in his book is the drowning of his beautiful actress wife Natalie Wood and the toll that it took on him. This is the first time that the actor has spoken of the tragedy.
Check out Wagner’s publicity video below, with contains some great pics.
