According to a biography by Arthur Silber Jr, Davis’ former personal assistant, the legendary singer, actor and comedian “attempted suicide on his wedding night because racial jibes drove him mad.”
“Silber claims the song-and-dance man was distraught at having to end his secret romance with actress Kim Novak after mobsters, who disapproved of the interracial match, threatened to kill him,” according to an article published by Contact Music.
“Sammy was putting a gun to his head,” Silber recalled. “I jumped on top of him and pinned his arms as I wrestled the gun out of his hand. It was loaded. I twisted his arm and the gun fell to the floor.”
