i believe he thought about marrying her but found her a little too "independent' other issue was his fear or john ford who would have gone ballistic. Ford was said to have been obsessed with her flying into a fury with her brother calling her a "whore" for dating a man from south america. Mr. wayne was doing the "wild thing" with marlene dietrick even on stairs in an italian hotel so type not issue. She was likely too independent for him as well. His second marriage was said to have broken up over his wife's drinking and aggression Hard for young people today to get their hands around but men were very different in general in those times.

Maureen O’Hara was absolutely lovely - beautiful - with that red hair and those emerald green eyes. Underrated in both her beauty and talent. I think she and The Duke were just good, good friends. He often referred to her as “one of the guys” which tells me he was very comfortable with her. Their on-screen chemistry was real, but I don’t think they crossed that line because their friendship was too important to each of them.

I've always adored Maureen, her brilliant acting, class and feistiness, her flawless beauty and she remained stunning even in her last years, she must of had great genes! I believe Maureen when she said her and Wayne never had an affair, she was a devout Catholic and it was very much a part of her person. She was not the type to sleep around. Maureen and John had great chemistry and a deep friendship but they were professionals and good ACTORS. There were many such pairings during that golden age of Hollywood, "movie couples" with great chemistry making whole series of movies together that were just friends and nothing more. Just two examples that come to mind are Greer Garson and Walter Pigeon and Myrna Loy and William Powell, but there are many more.

Stunning beauty, great actress who also did her own stunts in those swashbuckling movies! Read in her auto-biography, "T'is Myself" that she was quite tall and athletic in her teens and that the nuns at her school thought she'd never amount to anything in life! Boy, did she ever show them! She was only 18 in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" which is not only a classic but a true masterpiece including it's masterful musical score! I also read that her second husband punched her in the belly when she was pregnant with her daughter! She also had an entire room in her home in the Virgin Islands dedicated to John Wayne which was destroyed in a hurricane! I never thought she had an affair with John Wayne but she was a bit obsessed with him! Thanks for the great video and some wonderful photos I had never seen before! She's also buried next to her last husband in Arlington National Cemetery because he was a WW2 vet!

This truly startled Wayne and he was upset after the fact because he felt guilty about dragging Maureen this way and that in her fragile condition. Maureen wasn't thrilled about being dragging around in the dung either; she could take it like a trooper, but it wasn't necessary & I feel that was a dark side of that movie; it wasn't all fun & games (at the expense of women it wasn't). Basically, it was a misogynistic movie. Maureen said years after the movie was made; if she had had some backing from anyone making the film, (she didn't even get that from Wayne), she would have walked off the set & never looked back.
