A new book titled Dinner with DiMaggio: Memories of an American Hero, co-authored by brothers John and Dr.

Rock Positano, claims that Marilyn Monroe’s divorce from baseball player Joe DiMaggio happened because she couldn’t have children.

Although rumors circulated that the split happened due to DiMaggio’s unwillingness to take a back seat to Monroe’s fame, the book claims that he wanted a family with Monroe.

However, Monroe was unable to have children, and DiMaggio’s son Joe Jr.

was from his first marriage to actress Dorothy Arnold.

According to the book, “Joe wanted kids with Marilyn, and Marilyn wanted to reward him with a family.”

The book further reads, “In Italian terms, s^x meant kids. Great s^x meant great kids. Marilyn gave goddess s^x, but no kids.”

Dr. Positano first met DiMaggio while treating him for an old heel spur injury, and they later became friends.

Despite their divorce, DiMaggio continued to care about Monroe and helped her when she was going through a difficult time.

In 1961, when Monroe was feeling emotionally fragile after the end of her marriage to playwright Arthur Miller, DiMaggio secured her release from a psychiatric clinic and took her to the Yankees’ spring training camp in Florida.

Dr. Positano said that DiMaggio felt that Monroe was vulnerable and that it was easy for people to take advantage of her.

DiMaggio cared for Monroe so much that he never forgave his friend Frank Sinatra for introducing her to the Kennedy family.

Monroe was struggling with depression and drug addiction around the time rumors about affairs with John F.

Kennedy and Bobby Kennedy began circulating.

According to Dr. Positano, DiMaggio “didn’t think they were good people for her to be around.”

Monroe’s death at age 36 in August 1962 was ruled a “probable suicide,” but the book claims that she had told DiMaggio that someone was going to “do her in.” “The whole lot of Kennedys were lady-killers,” DiMaggio allegedly told Positano, “‘and they always got away with it.

They’ll be getting away with it a hundred years from now.'”

DiMaggio allegedly knew who killed Monroe, but he did not want to start a revolution in the country.

“I always knew who killed her, but I didn’t want to start a revolution in this country,” DiMaggio allegedly told Positano.

“I’ll go to the grave regretting and blaming myself for what happened to her.”

According to the book, Monroe loved DiMaggio to the end, and he arranged her funeral.

He sent roses to her Los Angeles grave every week until his death in 1999.

His last words were purportedly, “I’ll finally get to see Marilyn.”
