Cheyenne Brando was a Tahitian model who was best known as the daughter of legendary American actor Marlon Brando. She was born to Marlon’s third wife, who was a Tahitian actor. Cheyenne was born in 1970, and her parents separated in 1972. Cheyenne spent most of her childhood with her mother, in Tahiti. She was fascinated by her father during her childhood but as she grew up, she began hating him for abandoning her. She eventually started working as a model and also became a victim of uncontrolled drug abuse. In the late 1980s, a violent car accident brought an end to her modeling career and she slipped into depression. By that time, she had started dating Dag Drollet. The relationship ended in a tragedy. She claimed that Dag had abused her physically. Following this, her elder stepbrother, Christian, shot him dead. Cheyenne had become a mental patient by then, and her testimony was not accepted. In April 1995, Cheyenne hanged herself, bringing an end to her mental agony.
