Despite being a well-known musician, actor, and comedian, Bing Crosby ended up becoming the king of the holiday season, with his holiday songs becoming classic hits.

Other than the unique talents that helped him shine in the entertainment industry, Crosby had his own set of challenges, scandal, and loss throughout his life.

He appeared to be leading a happy life, but after his unfortunate death, his son came out with a book revealing the truth about the respected icon.
This is the tragic truth behind Bing Crosby’s incredible career.
