Dirty Dancing Star Jennifer Grey Breaks Silence On Ex-Fiancé Johnny Depp Trial After Describing Him As 'Crazy Jealous' In Memoir

perezhilton.com:

Well, this is certainly some new insight into Johnny Depp as a romantic partner — and it couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. Jennifer Grey released her memoir Out of the Corner this week, and in it she spills the tea for the first time on many aspects of her life, including her surprisingly contentious relationship with Patrick Swayze on Dirty Dancing, her father (legendary Broadway star Joel Grey) coming out, and her beautiful but tumultuous relationship with Johnny.

For those who don’t know, despite becoming one of the biggest stars in the world at the time, the late ’80s became a very rough period for Jennifer.

She was a passenger in the car with then-boyfriend (and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off co-star) Matthew Broderick when he got into his terrible 1987 accident in Ireland — a crash that claimed the lives of two women.

She and Matthew survived, though he was severely injured with amnesia, and she ended up with whiplash — and survivor’s guilt. Related: The Details Of Jared Padalecki’s Car Crash Are Horrific! She and Broderick broke up the next year, and in 1989 she got set up on a blind date with Johnny Depp — then the star of 21 Jump Street, yet to break out with Edward Scissorhands.
