Ginger Rogers and Jacques Bergerac

Ginger Rogers, the iconic actress and dancer, tied the knot with French actor Jacques Bergerac in 1953, in what was described as a whirlwind romance. The couple went on a honeymoon to Acapulco, Mexico, where they stayed at a luxurious resort. But their honeymoon didn’t go as smoothly as planned.

Jacques Bergerac was a notorious ladies’ man and spent most of the honeymoon flirting with other women. Ginger Rogers, not one to be outdone, decided to teach him a lesson by staging a dramatic fake suicide attempt. When Jacques found her lying motionless on the bathroom floor, he panicked and called for help. When Ginger finally revealed the truth, they both had a good laugh about it.
