Reply to comment by Summerlea623 in Sharon Tate at the Premiere of Rosemary’s Baby - 1968 by gwynsbooty
She was something like eight months pregnant at the time of her death. My gosh, no wonder Roman went off the rails (not that I'm excusing him for anything).

He was off having an affair with Michelle Phillips at the time. Should have been with his pregnant wife.
Also, she confided in friends that he would force her to have filmed drug-fueled orgies at their house.

Actually, he was in Europe filming at the time of her murder. I agree that he should have been with her.
As for Michelle Phillips, perhaps he was having an affair with her, but I haven't read of it, and it was not while he was in Europe making the film.

She was closer to 9 months pregnant...due to give birth in about 2 weeks.

You're right. I was at work when I typed that and didn't have time to look up the exact stage of her pregnancy.

Coroner Thomas Noguchi removed a perfectly formed male fetus at the autopsy. The baby didn't have any marks or injuries whatsoever
Heartbreaking, heartbreaking. RIP.
