He was the American political heavyweight tipped to become the next President, she was the British starlet forging her way in Hollywood.
Now Dame Joan Collins has revealed how she once had to turn down the advances of Bobby Kennedy – reminding him that he was a married man.
In a candid interview over lunch with her friend Piers Morgan for The Mail on Sunday’s You magazine today, Dame Joan recalls how the brother of President John F. Kennedy made a pass at her… but remains diplomatically tight-lipped about the details.

‘Ethel, his widow, is still alive so I really don’t want to go into it too much because I wouldn’t want to hurt her,’ she says.
‘That was one of the things I said to him, “I’m married, you’re married.” But he was so charismatic.’

The former US Attorney General had a reputation for womanising, with conquests including Kim Novak, Lee Remick and, reputedly, Marilyn Monroe.
Asked how he had taken her rejection, Dame Joan says simply: ‘He’s a gentleman, that’s all I can say.’
Dame Joan, who this year celebrates her 70th year on screen, reveals how she wept at hearing news of his assassination in 1968, five years after the murder of his brother.
‘He would have been the most marvellous President,’ she says. ‘I know he was hated by many but anybody who’s brilliant and clever and charismatic is hated.’
Five-times-married Dame Joan, 87, also recalls her two-year romance with a young Warren Beatty, who was so energetic between the sheets that the Beverly Wilshire hotel in Los Angeles had to replace the bed in his suite five times during the decade he stayed there.

‘I only knew him when he was a crass unknown of 22 but he was quite forceful in the feathers,’ says Dame Joan, who reveals he wanted sex several times a day.
‘I was horrified because it was really too much.’
While her love life has inspired acres of newsprint, Dame Joan insists she was never a Hollywood bed-hopper.
‘I haven’t been to bed with that many men,’ she says. ‘But if you look at my husbands, and boyfriends, they were all good-looking. I’m not attracted to men unless they’re good-looking. You can call me frivolous… but that’s the truth.’
