I saw a program on Grant yesterday. It said he and Randolph Scott common a place for years. Yet he was married 5 times. Had one kid with Dyan Cannon when he was very former. I gave no thought about it until the program made hints. Now I am curious fellow.

Given that Grant never said so, any answer is going to be speculation. The rumor has always been that he and Randolph Scott were lovers and that the relationship picked up and dropped off in between Grant’s relationship with women.

[Writer] Bill Royce and Grant even had a conversation about sex. After Royce unburdened himself about his affairs with both men and women, Grant responded by implying he had been basically same-sex attracted as a young dude, later bisexual, still later straight.

Grant explained sexuality in terms of performance, of acting. He told Royce that to not completely explore one’s sexuality would be appreciate an actor playing only one character for being. Everybody, he said, had more than one nature inside them. He didn’t think homosexual acts were anything to be ashamed of, or, for that matter, proud of. They simply were part of the journey, not necessarily the final destination.

Given this track record, it wasn’t hard for the clip studios to portray Cary Grant as the most voracious of red-blooded heterosexuals. But, while its tries succeeded with the general public, it was a different story when it came to Tinseltown’s cognoscenti.

She was referring to whispers that Grant was lgbtq+. The debate over the sexuality of a matinee idol who once said ‘making love is the best form of exercise’ has raged for almost a century.

She said, I suppose the [misconception about my father] that comes to thought is the question of, ‘Was he straight? Was he gay?’ When I wrote my guide [in ], I got despise mail saying, ‘Why aren’t you standing up for the reality that your father was homosexual?’ But the truth of the matter is, I never saw anything to indicate that. And had he been homosexual, I absolutely would’ve stood up for it. He had gay friends and there’s just absolutely nothing to be ashamed of there. But I had to talk the truth, which was
