Y'all need to know about Ingrid Bergman, Queen of Controversy.
She went to Italy to make a movie with director Roberto Rosselini at the end of the 1940s. While she was there, they fell in love and she got pregnant with his child... while her husband and daughter were back home in Hollywood.
She was one of the top movie stars of the 1940s and was looked at as an almost saint-like figure, the embodiment of female beauty, humility, and decency.
INSTANTLY she fell from grace. She got thousands of hate letters each week titled "Dear *****" and the like
She was even denounced on the floor of Congress in a speech that's summed up by "this is what we get for taking in foreigners"
She was exiled from Hollywood until 1956's Anastasia won her a second Oscar.
