SPRINGFIELD’S STRUGGLE WITH HER SEXUALITY REVEALED IN NEW BOOK
Soul singer DUSTY SPRINGFIELD used fame and religion as a cloak to hide her homosexuality for years, according a shocking new book about the star.
The 1960s icon - real name Mary Isabel Catherine Bernadette O’Brien - is revealed in forthcoming biography Dusty! Queen of the Postmods, telling the star’s ongoing struggle with her sexuality.
Author Annie Randall writes: "Catholicism was recruited to explain her reluctance to marry the rare man who might have been undaunted by her celebrity.
"Dusty (said), ‘You have to concentrate on marriage and I’m a Catholic and can’t get divorced. I’m so self-centered.’" The book is set to hit shelves in November (08).
