Richard Burton’s secret affair with Marilyn Monroe.

A new book, “Richard Burton: Prince of Players” would be released in Feb. 2007. It would contain details of Richard Burton’s extra-marital affairs with Marilyn Monroe and Lana Turner.

The biographer was Michael Munn, Richard’s ex-publicist. The book said that Richard cheated on his wife, Sybil Williams, during the 1950s by having an affair with Marilyn Monroe. He was alleged to have cheated again when he had a relationship with Lana Turner in 1955, when they were co-stars in the movie, “The Rains Of Ranchipur.”
