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

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

If you're going to bring up actual, documented, easily accessible facts, your enjoyment of this site may be greatly diminished. ;-)
I gave up asking Enty if he understood the google and its function. Because, no.

Mary Martin definitely gave off a certain vibe while on Merv Griffin. She was Peter Pan and that's how I remember her.

I forgot Mary Martin was Larry Hagman's mother (or that Larry Hagman was the son of Mary Martin--whatever your preference).
I miss Larry Hagman.
