David Carradine's third wife Gail Jensen has revealed intimate details of the actor's private sexual antics in a candid interview with Radaronline.com – including a fondness for tying himself up to "relax" and riding horses bareback while wearing a Speedo.
"He had his kinky moments," Jensen said.
Jensen was Carradine's third wife. The pair were together for 15 years and married for 10, she said.
She insisted she only saw him tie his hands and that it was "never, never" the sort of autoerotic asphyxiation that may have led to his death in a Bangkok hotel room.
"He told me it was for meditation because of all the pressure on his life and things, so he'd tie himself up and relax, and I mean, I didn't think it was a horrible thing, but to me, it was a little weird," she said.
Jensen told Radar that she’d often discover her husband nearly naked and bound at the wrists in their bedroom, or in front of the family fireplace.
The actor, 72, was found June 4 in a room at Bangkok's Swissotel Nai Lert Park Hotel hanging naked from a closet with cords binding his wrist, neck and genitals.
Police first suspected suicide, but now believe the actor's death was accidental suffocation or heart failure.
Famed New York City forensic pathologist Michael Baden - who is familiar with the signs of autoerotic asphyxiation - was to perform an autopsy on Carradine's body in Los Angeles.
Jensen also said Carradine often fell asleep in their swimming pool and that his preferred attire at home was a skimpy Speedo swimsuit.
"The entire 15 years we were together he was in his Speedos," she said. "He liked to go horseback riding bareback in his Speedos."
When asked if it was for sexual gratification, Jensen said, "everything for him was for fun."
Jensen is not the first of Carradine's ex-wives to speak out on his sexual proclivities.
In 2003 court papers obtained by TheSmokingGun.com last week, his third and most recent ex-wife Marina Anderson accused the actor of "deviant sexual behavior which was potentially deadly" and said he engaged in an "incestuous relationship with a very close family member."
In her Radar interview, Jensen also revealed Carradine's love of tattoos and piercing, describing a fish tattoo that stretched from his torso and down his leg.
"He liked piercing, he thought that was fun," she said.
