Jennifer Grey says tearful Patrick Swayze apologised over Dirty Dancing spat

Jennifer Grey said Patrick Swayze was ‘in tears’ as he apologised to her for his behaviour during their Dirty Dancing screen test.

The duo starred in the iconic romantic drama Dirty Dancing back in 1984, but despite being on-screen lovers, their relationship away from the cameras was famously frosty.

Jennifer and Patrick, who passed away in 2009, previously starred together on the 1984 action drama Red Dawn, and she said his attitude toward her on set while filming that movie prompted her to plead with producers to sack him from Dirty Dancing.
