In the book it states, “I would not discover her identity until over a decade later, on August 25th, 2003, when I tuned in to a special episode of Larry King Live dedicated to the forty-first anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death. Larry introduced her as “Jeanne Carmen, Marilyn’s closest friend in Hollywood.”
During the interview, which dealt primarily with the mysterious circumstances of Monroe’s death. Carmen told King in no uncertain terms that Marilyn had affairs with both Kennedy brothers, that she lived in the apartment next door to Marilyn on Doheny Drive, and that their apartments were “attached,” so she was always over there and had often seen Bobby Kennedy — whom she insisted Marilyn loved.
She then told King that she believed the rumors that the Kennedy brothers were somehow associated with her passing, at which point he asked her to elaborate.

Here is the intro to the article:
In the 1940’s and 1950’s a woman, applying her lipstick became a high art; especially if she was using her looks as a commodity as an actress or model, as did Jeanne Carmen.
It would be fair to say that Jeanne Carmen is a national treasure. I first became aware of Ms. Carmen while binge-watching videos on YouTube concerning the murder/suicide of Marilyn Monroe; and all the connections she had with the Kennedy brothers, Rat Packers Peter Lawford, Frank Sinatra, and the others, as well as Sam “Momo” Giancana and right-hand man Johnny Roselli. Which led me to the book JEANNE CARMEN: MY WILD, WILD LIFE written by her son Brandon James.Â
Ms. Carmen was unearthed by UK author Anthony Summers who was doing research for his book GODDESS: THE SECRET LIVES OF MARIYN MONROE and somehow got Carmen’s phone number and talked to her about the time she spent with Monroe as a girlfriend and apartment-mate and eventually neighbor.
Reading JEANNE CARMEN: MY WILD, WILD LIFE was like getting into a time machine crossed with a mechanical bull — all chronology was thrown out the window — it is a rollicking back and-forth ride between the 1950’s, 1960’s, 1970’s and beyond. Sort of a HOLLYWOOD BABYLON reality show if you will.
The book starts out with its most shocking revelation, the murder of Sam Giancana by Johnny Roselli on June 19, 1975. He confided in Carmen and told her how he did it. Later in one of the last chapters of the book, Carmen tells the fate of Roselli who was murdered on July 28, 1976 in Miami Beach. His body was found ten days later, chopped up in a fifty-five gallon drum discovered by two fisherman in Dumbfounding Bay near Miami Beach.
Born Jeanne Laverne Carmen on August 4, 1930 in Paragould, Arkansas, whose population at the time was slightly under 6,000. Carmen was, as her biography states, “born with three strikes against me.” The three strikes referred to were: 1) having been born out of wedlock, i.e., a “bastard;” 2) being the female half of fraternal twins; and 3) her mother and brother “wanted to be rid of the female half.”
