We Were Stupid...Actress Who Kept Lion As A Pet (Photos)
Hollywood actress Tippi Hedren has revealed her embarrassment and regret that she let a fully grown lion live with her family in the 1970s, saying they were �stupid beyond belief� to let the beast play with her daughter Melanie Griffth, then aged just 13.
In pictures taken for LIFE magazine, the Lion � named Neil � can be seen relaxing by the family�s pool, lounging in Melanie�s bed and becoming a distraction in the office.
But Hedren has revealed that looking back she finds the pictures humiliating and admits she �should never have taken those risks�.
