This former A+ list mostly movie actor was blackmailed by his wife during their divorce.

She told him she would release recordings of him admitting to be gay which would have ruined his career.

She told him homosexuality was a sin and that he could change whenever he wanted.

Considering she wanted his money so she could live with her female lover, that seems hypocritical.
