[1] Persistent rumors of homosexuality. According to Andrej Koymasky, "His friend and business manager David 'Taffy' Barlow, a former lover himself until he got too old, made Maurice's last days all the more comfortable by hiring teenaged rent boys to strip down and lie in the bed with him. This quite shocked some of his deathbed visitors."
