But as famous as she was, there were well-kept secrets about her life that weren’t revealed until much later. Let’s explore her untold story of courage and perseverance amid traumatic experiences and unimaginable hardship, as well as some little-known or surprising facts about this Hollywood superstar.

Actor William Holden was infamous for openly cheating on his wife, Ardis Holden. But when he met Audrey while they were filming for the 1954 movie Sabrina (1954), they were swept up in a whirlwind romance. Unlike with all his other mistresses, William was ready to leave his wife for her.

However, there was one serious problem: Audrey desperately wanted to have children, but William had undergone a vasectomy years ago. Fortunately, she discovered his condition before it was too late. Much to Ardis’s relief, Audrey broke off the relationship as soon as she found out.
