What Really Happened in Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz’s Marriage?

Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz played a fictional couple on I Love Lucy, in which the most serious issues had to do with fictional Ricky Ricardo (Arnaz) getting angry at the silly antics of his wife Lucy (Ball).

According to a new book, Ball was deeply hurt by Arnaz cheating on her often and his ideas of what a man was entitled to do outside of his marriage.
