And, in "The lifes and times of the Shah", by Gholam Afkhami, you can read that the Shah had "female friends" and that Farah suffered a lot with that, specially in 1973.

Alam died in 1978, before the revolution, and the book was edited by Alam’s friend Alikhani, and the book was released just few years ago, according to many the book is not all from Alam’s diaries. You can read more about it at Wikipedia:

The Shah probably had “female friends” as many other royals, statesmen, famous and infamous men, the Empress said in the movie “The Queen and I” that she know about the rumors that the shah had “female friends” but that the shah always treated her with respect, dignity and love, and sure there were women that tried to come close to the shah even when she was whit him and he always pushed them away, she had not seen anything herself.
