''Note: All The Tropes is not a gossip site. As per [[Topic:Wj3jclzpasz0mj6h|this discussion]], if you add a historical [[Real Life]] example, please keep in mind [[All The Tropes:No Lewdness, No Prudishness]] when adding examples to this section and ensure it's documented. Please do not add current Real Life examples at all.''
* Anthony Quinn. Three marriages, ten legitimate children, three acknowledged illegitimate children, and a string of acknowledged and confirmed sexual conquests stretching across four continents.
* [[Errol Flynn]]. He was such an accomplished and charming seducer that when he got into legal trouble in the early 1940's about having an affair with a teenager, he not only charmed the mostly-female jury into acquitting him, but ended up marrying the L.A. country sheriff's daughter, who was running a concession stand in the courthouse during the trial. The slang expression "in like Flynn" reportedly was coined as a result of that particular scandal. (This may also be an expression of [[Values Dissonance]], in that Flynn would probably have had his career wrecked today, charm or no charm.)
