But behind the glamour was a woman struggling to hold onto herself.
Today, this 88-year-old woman credits her faith for keeping her grounded through the heartbreaks that defined her life.
A star among the greats
Her acting career spanned genres and generations. With performances that blended wit and vulnerability, she earned three Oscar nominations, three Golden Globe nominations (winning one), and a Saturn Award.
In 1983, she was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a tribute to a career that still inspires.
Audiences loved her for films like Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, The Last of Sheila, Heaven Can Wait, and Deathtrap. Her versatility — whether in drama, mystery, or comedy — made her one of Hollywood’s brightest talents.
But her real story began off-camera, in a romance that would change her forever.
