Eleanor "Bebe" Goddard December 17, 1926 - February 11, 2000 was Marilyn Monroe's foster sister, when the American legend was still Norma Jeane Baker.
When Bebe Goddard passed away, she would leave a scandal behind. Hundreds of documents for personal memorabilia that she already had sold, and which she claimed belonged to her famous foster sister Marilyn Monroe.
Yet in an interview, conducted in the 1980's, when asked if she owned any belongings from her legendary foster sister, the answer was "no."
One handwritten letter in particular spilled out the viciousness that this criminal was doing to the world of Marilyn Monroe loving admirers, fans and collectors. It was addressed to her partner in crime Guido Ortenzio, who is still selling fakes, and who not only claims those items to be Monroe's items, but he is also selling many other fakes from other celebrities.
He sold in the hundreds of thousands worthless items, and he claimed to have purchased them at AIDS FUND RAISERS in Los Angeles and New York City. When I asked him in some emails which fund raiser he was talking about (those are traceable!), he would never ever even return my emails.
Here is the most disgusting letter, which was found in the personal belongings of the sweet and friendly old lady, who would stand as a guest speaker in 1997 in the chapel, where 35 years earlier Marilyn Monroe's funeral service was taking place:
"Dear Guido, April 23, 1996
Thank you for the opportunity to be a rip-offer instead of a rip-offee for a change. It feels good!
If I were mailing these things I would put tissue paper between the folds and put each garment into a plastic cleaners bag, except for the compact, purse and earings. The small items could be wrapped in tissue paper and pocked inside the purse. If I knew someone who used Chanel # 5, I would borrow some on a pad of cotton and dab the tissue paper lightly. Or maybe a Department Store perfume counter might have a tester of Chanel No. 5. Has David consulted the Tarot cards again? I am going to have to leave mine. They are the RIDER DECK and really interesting.
Please take a picture of Margo sometimes and send it to me - I have no idea what she looks like.
Good luck to us!! Talk to you soon. Best to all, Bebe"
It is estimated, that the criminal duo scammed many hundreds of thousands of dollars from people who would believe to buy the real thing.
Prominent collectors, like the Spanish couple Maite Minguez Ricard and Luis de Val were displaying many of Bebe Goddard's fakes at a prominent Spanish exhibition in Barcelona, Spain in 2006, and after I contacted them and presented the facts in form of my found proof, I was threatened by Senior Luis de Val, Maite Minguez' husband, with a lawsuit. Yet his LA based lawyer never ever called or sent me a warning. I wonder why?
After viewing their 2nd book about their collection, I counted not less than 44 fake items. The book makes it really easy to pinpoint them out. One remarkable hoax is a lingerie item in black, which the Spanish collectors bought on eBay from super fraud Frank Ferruccio for $400! A big joke, and I still have that auction printed out. Frank Ferruccio even sold it with a photo of MM wearing an almost identical piece. Yet we all know for what amounts the real items went for in 1999, 2001 and 2005, where the Spanish collectors were active buyers, too.
Eleanor "Bebe" Goddard was the most prominent member of Greg Schreiner's fan club "Marilyn Remembered," (established in 1982) and Greg Schreiner, 59,

and the 'president' of this group, can be seen briefly in this video after Bebe Goddard's heartwarming but absolutely fake speech.

This video was shot by me on August 5th, 1997, the 35th anniversary of Marilyn Monroe's death, and the 15th anniversary of this particular memorial services. (Marilyn Monroe's funeral took place on August 8th).
1997 was my first year of membership of this fan club, which I left due to the attacks by Jill Adams in February, 2006.

Two and a half years after this video was shot, Bebe Goddard was dead. She was considered a chain smoker.
To see the letter that she wrote by hand for yourself and other fake documents that this lady fabricated and successfully sold (at auction houses like Christie's, Sotheby's, Profiles In History, (many of her fabrications are still floating around on eBay and other websites -- please visit:
