Golden Bachelor April Kirkwood had an affair with married celebrity?
Golden Bachelor contestant April Kirkwood has a very interesting past. In fact, she even wrote a book about it. There have been several news outlets that reported her story as far back as 2015. Her story began way back when she was only six years old. April was a huge fan of The Four Seasons and especially Frankie Valli.
The New York Post first shared the story in 2015 when her book came out. As April states, her mom and aunt used to take her to shows and they would sneak backstage. She would run for Frankie and he would carry her around while she nuzzled her head in his neck. This continued for years.
Then, when April was only 16 years old, she lost her virginity to 39-year-old Frankie at a Holiday Inn. She said, “That first night was sad. I had never seen a naked man before. I was like, ‘Oh, my God. What did I just do?’”
According to her story, he told her not to do that with anyone else. April said, “I was smart enough to go, ‘Can I have your phone number?’ And, of course, he gave me his manager’s number.”
She didn’t realize she was his Ohio hookup
April went on tour with Frankie for a few days while he was in Ohio. She recalls being expected to be intimate with him on the bus while his band and crew listened. She noted her mother had a rough life and would do anything to help her escape the same fate she had.
April said, “My mother was so twisted in her own pain that she would’ve done anything to get me out of there. It never crossed my mind that I was his Ohio groupie, his hookup, his lay on the road.”
Of course, Frankie was married and then divorced. So, she dreamt of marrying him herself one day. However, that would never happen. When a new album came out she knew the next Mrs. Valli was already chosen, a blonde model named Mary Ann. April says she went blonde immediately.
She tried to replace him with Frankie look-a-likes and even married on whom she had two children with. Nearly 20 years later they divorced.
Her love affair continued on and off until their last encounter in 2005. When he found out about the book he refused to see her.
She proclaimed that he was the love of her life and he never even cared about her.
What do you think about April’s incredible story? Will she be a good match for Gerry Tuner on the Golden Bachelor?
