Dylan's conversion to Christianity had its origins in a sexual affair - while having a fling with backing singer Helena Springs he became infatuated with Mary Alice Artes, a black actress who was part of a group of religious fundamentalists.
It was one of several times when Dylan indulged in overlapping affairs - seemingly without much conscience.
At the time that he was involved with Carolyn Dennis, later his second wife, he was also seeing Ruth Tyrangiel (their affair ran from 1974 to 1991, and he ended up paying her alimony as she was legally considered his common-law wife).
He also simultaneously romanced Susan Ross, a legal assistant, who later condemned him as an emotional miser, a horrible lover and a recovering alcoholic.
