AN ex-wife of film star David Carradine, who died alone in his Bangkok hotel room in what is thought to have been a bizarre sex game, claimed he was addicted to dangerous “deviant sexual behaviour,” it was revealed yesterday.

The Kung Fu star’s fourth wife Marina Anderson alleged it in divorce papers filed in Los Angeles in 2003, which surfaced yesterday.

Details of what she described as “potentially deadly” kinky games were not explained in the papers but Anderson, 56, alleged the actor, 72, moved out because she would not take part in his lewd activities.

Five-times-wed Carradine also groped her in public and encouraged her to flash at strangers by pulling her top off, the papers claimed. They also show Anderson accused him of a “relationship with a very close family member” – a woman. Anderson, who divorced him after four years, claimed she pleaded with him “to get counselling in regards to this matter” but was “ignored”. And his third wife Gail Jensen also says he regularly tied himself up for sexual kicks.

Police said Carradine, who was making a movie called Stretch, was found naked in a sitting position with two curtain ropes tied to his neck, wrists and other parts of his body. They suspect he suffocated during a ritual to heighten sexual pleasure.

But his family say he was murdered by assassins from a martial arts sect because he was delving into their shadowy underworld activities.
