He was married to Bobbie Gentry.
I remember when she married some old, OLD codger back around 1970, then se disappeared from music business.
A marriage like that would be only for his money.
That old codger was a Las Vegas casino magnate, I’ve been trying to remember his name but just can’t. I saw a picture of them together, ugh! It could have been for his money, but maybe for influence. She was still early in her career, and could have used someone like him on her side.
