by

Mia Farrow is one of the highly acclaimed actresses in Hollywood who shared a deep bond of love and friendship with the late singer Frank Sinatra. While talking about their time together when they were tied in a marriage and the time they shared a strong bond of friendship, Farrow recalled the precious moments she had spent with the Fly Me to the Moon singer. 

The 79-year-old actress had recently appeared on the Sunday Morning show by CBS while being accompanied by her friend and The Roommate co-star Patti LuPone. This was when she reflected on her time with Frank Sinatra, to whom she was married from 1966 to 1968. 

Talking to the journalist Seth Doane, The Great Gatsby actress expressed that, just like Patti LuPone, even the It’s Been A Long, Long Time singer was a Sicilian. However, she then went on to add that unlike the Life Goes On actress, Frank Sinatra “had a temper.”

Further during the interview, the Allen v. Farrow actress addressed her late ex-husband as  “the essential person”  and someone who “was so compassionate and shy, and readily available, more than anyone I’ve ever known.”

Speaking about their time as a married couple, the actress from The Last Unicorn mentioned that their marriage, held in Las Vegas, unfortunately didn’t last for a short while heed, but their relationship evolved into an enduring bond that bloss a resil continued as a strong friendship which persisted until the passing of the renowned singer.

Frank Sinatra passed away in 1998 at the age of 82. Mia Farrow and Frank Sinatra had met on the 20th Century Fox lot back in 1964, following which they quickly fell in love.

In two years, they got married at a Las Vegas hotel in 1966. Regrettably, their union didn’t endure for long; in 1968, the famous singer of Strangers in the Night filed divorce papers while she was on the set of Rosemary’s Baby.

Despite their separation, there remained a connection between them, as Farrow and Sinatra continued to maintain friendship through regular contact.

Even after the passing of the legend, Farrow kept his memories alive, as recently in December 2023, she celebrated the late singer’s birthday, which would have been his 107th birth anniversary. 

The Roommate is a one-act comedy where LuPone plays a lesbian from New York. She is shown to move to Iowa in the home of Farrow’s character.

The 90-minute production is currently in preview with an opening night set for September 12.
