There are several conflicting suggestions as to when they first entered each other\u2019s life. But the majority of the biographers believe that the actual affair began in March 1962, at Bing Crosby\u2019s Palm Springs house.<\/p>\n\n

Rumors about Monroe’s<\/strong> alleged affair with JFK<\/strong> really started to spread after her \u00a0sultry “Happy Birthday<\/em>” performance for the commander-in-chief at his 45th birthday celebration at Madison Square Garden on May 19, 1962.<\/p>\n\n

That famous performance was just months before the film star’s death.<\/p>\n\n

It was also rumoured that Monroe<\/strong> had an affair with JFK’s brother, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

“What happened to Marilyn Monroe is one of the great mysteries of the 20th century,” her biographer James Spada<\/strong> told PEOPLE in 2012.<\/p>\n\n

Although Spada<\/strong> knew that there is no proof that the Kennedys were responsible for Monroe’s<\/strong> death, he said, “It was pretty clear that Marilyn had had sexual relations with both Bobby and Jack.”<\/p>\n\n

According to him, actor Peter Lawford<\/strong> introduced Monroe<\/strong> to JFK<\/strong> in 1954. But when Kennedy got tired of her around the spring of 1962, he passed her off to his brother.<\/p>\n\n

Jackie<\/strong> recongnized her voice instintly, The actress, asked her “Is this Jackie?” , before asking her to pass a message to her husband that she has called.<\/p>\n\n

That phone call wich happened just four months before Monroe\u2019s death left Jackie<\/strong> with a lot of quaestions.<\/p>\n\n

While talking to family memebers about the phone call, Jackie<\/strong> decribed Monroe\u2019s<\/strong> voice as “sad” and “ethereal, little-girl-lost quality.”<\/p>\n\n

According to to “Jackie: Public, Private, Secret,” it remains a mystery how Monroe<\/strong> even obtained the number, because the bedroom\u2019s phone line was the only one in the house not intercepted by the Secret Service.<\/p>\n\n
