However, Mansfield’s life was cut short when she met a dangerous accident while returning from a nightclub with her three children and her lawyer, Samuel Brody, who was also her lover.
Mansfield breathed her last on June 29, 1967, when the driver Ronnie Harrison accidentally crashed their car into a trailer truck. They were traveling on a dark road from Mississippi to New Orleans when a cloud of mosquito spray didn’t allow the driver to spot the truck.
