@@artemissaerom9278 Bullshit. Ava didn't want kids, period. She made that clear in all of the subsequent interviews on the subject, and her biography. She could have afforded kids (she didn't need "a future" with Sinatra or any other man; she had plenty of money to raise children) she just didn't want to be a mother, and because she was an atheist, saw no barriers to abortion. Nothing wrong with that, but her multiple abortions were not driven by financial needs in regards to raising kids.

What a gentle, sensitive, and delicate person. Ava Gardner was a very talented actress. It was said that she was a very shy, extremely shy person (like Rita Hayworth) and that must have made things difficult for her in Hollywood where there was so much stiff competition. She was absolute beautiful, like a sculpture of Da Vinci. How people can tell derrogatory comments about her? It is a shame! It's pretty hard to please everybody in this world and she did not try. She was surrounded by envyness.

Well from people who knew her say she wasn't a shy or a delicate person. She smoked like many people from NC, she drank some, and cussed like a sailor, but she was also very nice and very loyal and very down to earth. She died at age 67, and had 2 strokes from the drinking and smoking, my guess. I recently visited her grave in Smithfield NC, nit far from I 95. Her grave had fresh flowers and one other person was there when I arrived. She herself didn't think she was a good actress, but in my view and many others, thought she was a very good actress.

Why should good looking women be meek, modest and insipid? Ava was a firecracker and the only woman Frank could never tame, she drove him crazy. I read that she fell pregnant twice during the marriage but didn't go ahead with the pregnancies because, in her words: "Frank and I couldn't look after ourselves, let alone another human being". Two amazing people who were powerfully attracted to each other but fundamentally incompatible - still, the marriage lasted 6 years and Ava said Frank never cheated on her - though it seems Ava ran around a bit on him. They just don't make stars like this any more!

Oh, the awkward pause after Arlene asked "Are you glad (you're married)?" Frank and Ava had a relationship that was passionate in every definition of the word. This was about one year into their marriage, and they'd already ruined several sets of fine china during their jealous clashes. He adored her until his dying day. She loved and derided him in equal measure, and later said "he was the love of my life." It's said that Frank paid for her medical bills when she was dying and broke, and that she knew he did so without having to be told who did it.
