Brigitte Bardot

Bardot hasn’t always had the happiest life. In September 1960 she tried to commit suicide and ended in a hospital in Nice. She had three turbulent marriages to millionaires and business men, but this didn’t save her from suicidal thoughts; in 1983 she tried to take her own life again. Besides that, she also survived breast cancer. Nowadays, she’s married to her fourth husband: Bernard d’Ormale. Brigitte is very passionate about animals: she’s a convinced vegetarian and animal rights activist and has sold many of her own possessions (worth hundreds of thousands of euros) to save animals.
