Moreno recalled, 'I found lingerie in his house, and of course I was heartbroken and I went home in tears - really, I was naïve - and the very next day, and I was angry too, just furious.'
The Humacao, Puerto Rico-born actress recalled how she received a phone call from Presley's manager Colonel Tom Parker.
'The phone rings and I say hello and [Parker said,] "Miss Moreno, this is Colonel Parker, my client is Elvis Presley. And Elvis spotted you at the 20th Century Fox ... commissary and he liked what he saw."
'I said, "Oh," and [Parker said,] "He would like very much to meet you, would you like to meet him?" And I thought of [Brando's cheating] and I said, "Yes, I would."'
