Passed around by dozens of Hollywood leading men over a decade former Playboy model Paige Young had become damaged goods.
When she turned 30 in 1974 her star had faded and she felt used, abused and unwanted by the Hollywood establishment.
And in an astonishing tale of tragedy a MailOnline investigation can today reveal the truth behind this American beauty’s demise.
We have learned that Young – Playboy Playmate of the Month in November 1968 – shot herself in the head in a bid she thought would send a powerful message to the men who she believed had tormented her for so long.
Last week it emerged that one of her tormentors may have been legendary comedian Bill Cosby.

Young’s name was mentioned in media reports along with the dozens of women who have made shocking allegations of rape and sexual assault against the comic.
Very little was known of Young and Cosby’s encounter but her story is all the more intriguing given her death.
Now MailOnline can reveal that Cosby in fact dated Young for months at the height of her fame.
