Previous comments are all false stating that his wife was Miss Puerto Rico and to even suggest she was the 1971 winner Idalia knowned in PR as Beba. These are two different people entirely. Please visit the following website for true accounts of the American Gangster and how true the movie really was. http://www.chasingthefrog.com/reelfaces/americangangster.php
from the website www.latinoreview.com in a review of the film, American Gangster, by Steven Zallian: Puerto Rican wife Julie, a former Miss Puerto Rico that thought Frank should live a little more. Wrong:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_Puerto_Rico - Puerto Rico has won over 5 Miss Universe titles. The most out of all countries except for the USA. Presently, Puerto Rico holds the most titles for Miss Universe contest. Frank Lucas was and is still married to Miss Puerto Rico Idalia Margarita "Beba" Franco - who came out 3rd place in 1971. And, she did not win Miss Universe "solely" because in 1969, Miss Puerto Rico had won Miss Universe. So, Miss Puerto Rico could not win Miss Universe 2x's in a row. Beba was so beautiful that she could have won if the year before, Miss Puerto Rico did not win
1971 Idalia Margarita "Beba" Franco was 3rd runner-up at Miss Universe
