On November 13, 1959, while in jail in Beverly Hills on a charge of drunkenness, she attempted to hang herself.[8]

Castle also faced financial problems that resulted in legal action. In December 1959, she told a superior court that she had no money when an interior designer got a $4,500 judgment against her. On February 25, 1960, Castle filed a bankruptcy petition listing $300 worth of clothes as assets and $13,678 in debts. In April 1960, a debt warrant was served on her after she was booked on a drunk charge. Officers had found her lying on the front seat of a car in a parking lot.[9]
