English actress Olivia Hussey has accused a former beau of raping and abusing her in her new memoir. The star began dating actor Christopher Jones after winning acclaim for her break-out role in 1968's "Romeo and Juliet", but the romance turned sour when he became abusive, punching her in the stomach during one fight, reports aceshowbiz.com.
The 67-year-old said that she chose to stay in the relationship because she "was young, and... loved him," but she started to look for a way out, and when she formed a friendship with fellow actress Sharon Tate, she made plans to make a clean break of it and move in with her in Hollywood. But the actress, who was pregnant at the time, was murdered in the house Hussey was hoping to call home before the Brit could move forward with her plans.
