A declassified government memo in 2018 revealed that Cabot was invited by the CIA to a party with King Hussein of Jordan, who was in Los Angeles on a trip and desired female company. While she did not necessarily wish to accomplish the CIA goal of "go to bed with him", she went to the party and evidently found him charming.

Cabot soon had a seven-year affair with King Hussein of Jordan (which the CIA was aware of) and their only child, Timothy Scott, was born out of wedlock in 1964. She received $1500 in monthly support from Hussein. In 1968, she married her second husband Michael Roman with whom she raised Timothy, before again divorcing in 1983

In the last years of her life, Cabot suffered from depression and suicidal thoughts, and was prey to a wide range of irrational, powerful fears. She was under a licensed psychologist's care, but the psychologist found her so troubled and ill that the sessions became "emotionally draining."

Cabot became increasingly unable to care for herself; the interior of her home was littered with spoiled food and old newspapers.

In late 1986, Cabot's mental health deteriorated significantly. Despite the squalor of the home's interior, Cabot still maintained an "adequate" income despite having retired from acting, largely due to real estate investments and her fascination with vintage cars, which she regularly acquired, restored, and resold.[11] Death

On December 10, 1986, Cabot's 22-year-old son, Timothy Scott Roman, bludgeoned her to death in her home in the Encino neighborhood of Los Angeles, with a weightlifting bar.

He was charged with second-degree murder

At trial, Roman testified that his mother had awakened him while screaming, not recognizing him, and calling for her mother, Elizabeth. When he attempted to call emergency services, she attacked him with a barbell bar and a scalpel. Roman seized the bar from her and beat her repeatedly on the head

The original Superman. Sad. And he seemed like a genuinely nice person too like even beyond Hollywood standards.

I wouldn't say unluckiest - just a very unfortunate blank mantle year after year - after year after year.

She is known to all - I don't need to say her name, do I?

Whoever you're think - let's just say you're CLOSE!

Taylor Kitsch was so pretty in his day.

by Anonymousreply 27July 21, 2025 5:18 AM

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively. They were on top of the world and thought themselves invincible. Now look at them.

Peak Schadenfreude.
