Season Eight will have a running theme of the Kennedy Brothers as well as Marilyn Monroe.

🌟Random Theme Fact: 

Why did Marilyn Monroe die?

Marilyn Monroe’s autopsy report released following her death ruled the cause as "probably suicide." The lack of a definite cause fueled conspiracy theorist fire, leaving room for assassination attempts that lead back to Jimmy Hoffa, Sam Giancana, and the mafia. In her book "The Secret Letters," The Scotsman reports Wendy Leigh argues it was these men who killed Monroe via enema injection. Leigh's claim — dismissing the reporting Anthony Summers has done — is even backed by John Miner, who was present for Monroe's autopsy.

Fred Otash, a private detective who claimed he had bugged Peter Lawford’s (Kennedy’s brother-in-law) house and phones in order to dig up dirt on the Kennedys, said that Robert Kennedy called Monroe “that night” and that the two had a vicious argument. “There were tapes recorded on the day of her death. Bobby Kennedy called her the night of her death from Lawford’s house. She said, ‘Don’t bother me, leave me alone, stay out of my life.’ A very violent argument. ‘I feel passed around, I feel used, I feel like a piece of meat.'”

Season Eight will have a running theme of the Kennedy Brothers as well as Marilyn Monroe.

🌟Random Theme Fact: 

Robert Kennedy was not only President Kennedy's Attorney General, but he was also his closest advisor and confidant. As a result of this unique relationship, the Attorney General played a key role in several critical foreign policy decisions. During the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, for instance, he helped develop the Kennedy administration's strategy to blockade Cuba instead of taking military action that could have led to nuclear war. He then negotiated with the Soviet Union on the removal of the weapons.

🌟Random Theme Fact: 

Actor Eli Wallach once recalled that Monroe seemed to flip an inner switch and turn "Marilyn" on and off. He had been walking on Broadway with her one evening, totally incognito; the next minute, she was swarmed with attention. "'I just felt like being Marilyn for a minute,'" Wallace recalls. Photographer Sam Shaw often heard her critiquing "Marilyn's" performances in movies or at photo shoots, making comments like, "She wouldn't do this. Marilyn would say that."

Marilyn once believed that actor Clark Gable was her father. Monroe's mother had a picture of a man she had once dated on her wall. “He had a thin mustache like Clark Gable,” Monroe remembered, according to Baker. “I asked my mother what his name was. She wouldn't answer.” In 1935, Monroe went to see a movie called China Seas, starring Gable and Jean Harlow—and from that point onward, Gable became “the man I thought was my father,” she revealed.
