Paul Newman has been 'outed' from beyond the grave by Marlon Brando, according to writer Darwin Porter's scandalous new book on the late movie legend. Porter interviewed Brando about Newman before the acting great died in - and he was stunned with what the heavyweight star let slip. Paul Newman had just as many on-location affairs as the rest of us, and he was just as bisexual as I was.
