Blind Items Revealed #3 - Old Hollywood - Mr. X
July 8, 2015
What multiple Tony winning entertainer who also dabbled in films was also a closeted lesbian for much for her life? Her relationships with two A-list actresses were somewhat of an open secret in Hollywood. As for her longtime husband and father of her son, yes he was a closet case too. That son became famous in his own right and he took the secret that both his parents were gay to the grave.
Mary Martin/Janet Gaynor and Jean Arthur/Richard Halliday/Larry Hagman
From a time when bearding was successful...

Larry Hagman's father was Ben Hagman, Mary's first husband (and from their hometown of Weatherford, Texas). Richard Halliday was Larry's stepfather.

ReplyDeleteI gave up asking Enty if he understood the google and its function. Because, no.
Lol. Thx for the laugh @kno
ReplyDeleteThat made me do a spit-take on my keyboard, LOL. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMary Martin definitely gave off a certain vibe while on Merv Griffin. She was Peter Pan and that's how I remember her.
ReplyDeleteI forgot Mary Martin was Larry Hagman's mother (or that Larry Hagman was the son of Mary Martin--whatever your preference).
ReplyDeleteI miss Larry Hagman.
Speak.... LOL
