OVER THE TOP: Sir Tom Jones
CONFESSING to sleeping with 250 women was no surprise in Sir Tom Jones’ new autobiography.
What was unusual in Over the Top and Back Again was not mentioning his highly-publicised affairs with Mary Wilson of the Supremes and Miss World Marjorie Wallace, and his having a love-child.
Disappointingly, he dismisses his long-suffering wife Linda as having “lost her spark”, accusing her of letting herself go as she battled depression.
There’s no denying Sir Tom is a fabulous entertainer with a remarkable career. Unfortunately, this book – far from adding to his reputation - may make some established fans question their loyalty.
