    In short the answer is NO! Maureen O’Hara was a devout Catholic. She would never run around on her husband. Plus the Duke & Maureen were the best of friends. She was considered as one of the guy’s. Coming from a man that would be considered to be the best trust that one could ever get.

    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 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.

    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!

I have a friend who knew the caretaker friend of Maureen's up until the end of her life and what Maureen told John Wayne was that she was pregnant. 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. I think she should have. The movie was a hit, but at what expense? Have a gr8 day.

    Yes, they were. Many Hollywood insiders told of their ongoing affair, which most might have considered scandalous but in the Hollywood industry was common.

    As beautiful as Maureen was she had to be pretty tough to hold her own especially with the likes of
    Ford and Wayne. All qualities to be admired.
    I also like she was never to
    full of herself.

    It is no one's business whether they did or did not have an affair. Whether they did or not have an affair, it clear that they loved each other.

    I think they did in the beginning! That chemistry! But Wayne eventually saw a tough Irish woman, took no crap. I thing the immigrant women were more his style, . You can see that on the screen z. I always believe a couple that has that much chemistry, have been in the sack. Maybe not all, but the attraction shows on the screen

    • @ladywisewolf3942

      That "chemistry" is called ACTING, and their have been dozens of famous "movie couples" with pronounced chemistry that never had affairs.

    Yes they did, John had a ranch in Springerville, AZ on the rim, north of the White Mts next to the New Mex border. They would meet there on occasion. She also tells stories of him and her going to Hollywood parties. She would have to drive him home cause he was too drunk to drive. Needless to say, THAT did not last long.

    Probably not. He was totally drunk during all of his movies, so I would be surprised if he could see how great a woman Mareen O: Hara really was.
