Lana had known Frank Sinatra since 1940, but didn’t have an affair with him until right after she’d filmed The Postman Always Rings Twice.

When she’d first met him, she told Ava Gardner that she thought, “He’s all skin and bones.”

But Gardner later revealed his allure: “There may be only ten pounds on the guy, but there are 110 pounds of cock.”

Within a span of about two weeks, Sinatra had obviously changed his mind about marrying Lana. He had purchased an expensive diamond bracelet for her, but decided not to give it to her. He told Phil Silvers, “I’ve had a change of heart. I will not marry Lana. That doesn’t mean I’m giving up fucking her. She really gets off being plugged by my whopper.”

That diamond bracelet was eventually presented to another blonde actress, Marilyn Maxwell, instead, but not before Nancy had discovered it (and presumably registered its value), after finding it concealed in a drawer at home with his underwear.

Later, at a party hosted by Nancy and Frank at the Sinatra home, Maxwell in-discreetly showed up wearing that bracelet. After the party had been rocking along for two hours, Nancy approached her and demanded that she relinquish the bracelet and give it to her. At first, Maxwell resisted, but, fearing a fight and horrendously embarrassed, she reluctantly surrendered it.

Later, at a New Year’s Eve party in Hollywood, Lana was introduced to Nancy. The other guests backed away, warily expecting fireworks, but the two women gossiped and seemed to enjoy each other’s company.

In a corner of the party, a very handsome actor, under contract to MGM, was holding forth, surrounded by three starlettes. “Boy, the gal he selects tonight is in for a big disappointment,” Lana said. “That’s the only thing big about him. He must need a pair of tweezers to jerk off.”

Nancy laughed. “That’s hardly Frank’s problem.”

To Nancy, Lana expressed her disdain for Hollywood. After defining it as “a boiler factory,” she said, “The men here are either fairies or hounds. Women out here like to slit each other’s throats. Take Joan Crawford and me, for example.”

Weeks later, both Lana and Nancy were in New York at the same time, each of them for, among other reasons, Sinatra’s opening at the Waldorf Astoria.

Whereas Nancy attended the 10PM show and then retreated to her suite, Lanashowed up for the midnight show and wildly applauded Sinatra. At the end of his concert, he rushed over to her table. Embracing her, he whispered in her ear. “I’ve missed you, baby. Can’t live without you.”
