Little did we know, there were tons of issues going on behind the scenes. Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz met on the set of RKO Studios’ movie ‘Too Many Girls.’ Desi, who had starred in the Broadway musical the film was based on, was a bandleader while Lucy was one of the film's stars. In November of 1940, six months after they'd met, the pair eloped. Desi continued to tour and the extended absences began to take a toll on the newlyweds. Lucy's longtime publicist, Charles Pomerantz, told People, "She used to say, 'We just can't keep meeting in the Sepulveda tunnel.' And her strategy must've worked, because she got pregnant right away. She said she finally had him where she wanted him …for a couple of days." Lucy's friends have said the actress suffered several miscarriages before the couple conceived their firstborn. They separated for a period of time in 1944 after Lucy filed for divorce, allegedly because of Desi's infidelity and drinking problem. They later reconciled after talking and agreeing to pursue more projects where their professional lives would intersect. The golden opportunity came when CBS decided to turn the radio program Lucy had been starring in into a TV show. Executives weren't convinced when Lucy pitched her real-life husband to play the on-screen part, too. In preparation for the show, the pair formed Desilu, the first-ever independent television production company. Ever the savvy entrepreneur, Desi convinced CBS to produce the show on film— an unconventional move for a time when reruns were unheard of—and haggled for ownership of all episodes, presumably to share with the couple's future children. He later sold them back to CBS for millions. All told, Desilu's profits reached $5 million by 1961. They became parents to little Lucie on July 17, 1951, three months before the show's premiere. Lucy's friends would later say that the actress believed having a baby would strengthen the couple's bond. It did, for a little while. "Some of Desi's womanizing was alleviated from the moment little Lucie was born," said biographer Bart Andrews, who's authored three books on the couple. I Love Lucy debuted in October 1951. It wasn't long before 40 million viewers were tuning in each week to see what the Ricardos were up to. In 1953, when Lucy became pregnant with the couple's second child, Desi Jr., the show became the first in history to depict a pregnant woman. Charles Pomerantz: The magazine Confidential came out with a story saying Desi was a womanizer. I gave an advance copy to Desi, and Lucy said, “I want to read this story.” It was during a rehearsal day, and she went into her dressing room. Everybody was frozen on the set. She finally came out, tossed the magazine to Desi and said, “Oh, hell, I could tell them worse than that.” After 20 years of marriage, Lucy could no longer tolerate Desi's drinking habit and infidelities, which had never fully subsided. She divorced him in 1960. Bart Andrews: She told me that by 1956 it wasn’t even a marriage anymore. They were just going through a routine for the children. She told me that for the last five years of their marriage, it was “just booze and broads.” That was in her divorce papers, as a matter of fact. As Desi would later reveal in his memoir, the pressures of running a production company, coupled with the insecurities of what his daughter would later call being "Mr. Ball," pushed him towards alcohol. Yet even after the marriage and show ended, and they each married other people, Lucy and Desi remained close. Friends said neither one ever got over their breakup. "They spoke so lovingly of each other, you almost forgot they weren't together anymore," said Lucy's good friend, theater actress Carol Channing. Before his death in 1986, Desi's last words to Lucy were, "I love you too, honey. Good luck with your show."

But what exactly did Clark Gable do to gain this sort of attention? In 1942, Clark Gable was emotionally and physically devastated by the loss of his wife, Carole Lombard. The actress had been returning from a war bond tour in Indiana with her mother, Bess Peters, Clark Gable’s press agent, Otto Winkler, and 15 Army soldiers when their plane crashed in Nevada. The cause of the crash was determined to be linked to the crew’s inability to properly navigate over the mountains surrounding Las Vegas. Due to possible Japanese bomber aircraft entering American airspace, safety beacons used to direct night flights had been turned off leaving the crew blind to mountains in the flight path. Soon after Lombard's death, Gable joined the United States Army Air Forces. She had repeatedly asked him to do this numerous times after the US had entered World War II. At age 40, Gable was a bit old for military service but he didn’t let this stop him. He sent President Franklin D. Roosevelt a telegram asking for a role in the war effort. The president replied, “STAY WHERE YOU ARE.” Of course, Gable did not. He enlisted as a private in the Army Air Force on Aug. 12, 1942, in Los Angeles, California. He then entered a 13-week Officer Candidate School in Miami Beach, Florida and graduated as a second lieutenant on Oct. 28. He was trained as a photographer and aerial gunner. Due to his booming Hollywood career, Gable headed a six-man motion picture unit attached to a B-17 bomb group in England to film aerial gunners in combat. The unit was called the First Motion Picture Unit (FMPU) and was located at ‘Fort Roach,’ which was the Hal Roach Studios in Culver City, California. Other stalwarts included Alan Ladd, Jack Warner, Ronald Reagan, Hollywood stunt pilot Paul Mantz, and Van Heflin. While in England, on personal orders from Gen. Hap Arnold, Gable filmed “Combat America,” a propaganda movie about aerial gunners in combat. Even though he was not ordered nor expected to do so, Gable flew more than five operational missions over Europe in B-17s to obtain the footage he believed was required for producing the film. The FMPU completed 300 training and propaganda films and was responsible for 3,000,000 feet of combat footage. Reagan, who went on to become president, called the film office: “an important contribution to the war effort.” In 1942, clerk Corp. Calvert P’Pool wrote to his parents: “Today, Clark Gable is supposed to arrive to be assigned to our group. They tell us he is the same as any other soldier-officer (1st Lt). But they had a carpenter build a special luggage rack in a bomber here and the bomber has gone to Los Angeles for him and is to return this afternoon. He will be a top gunner in a bomber.” P’Pool wrote that the 351st would become “a pretty nice outfit with me and Clark Gable. Tell the boys hello and tell ’em me and Clark Gable are putting this 351st outfit in shape.” “They were very real missions in which he could have been wounded or killed. His film “Combat America” makes a valuable contribution to our historical knowledge of the war from the flyer’s perspective these days.” - Chrystopher J. Spicer Adolf Hitler, who was actually one of Clark Gable’s biggest fans, posted a $5,000 reward to anyone who would capture Gable alive and bring him to Germany. After several attempts, Germany was never able to capture him. Gable returned to the US safe and sound in October 1943 and was relieved from his duty as a major on June 12, 1944 at his own request. Fellow actor Captain Ronald Reagan signed his discharge papers. For his service, Gable was awarded the Air Medal, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the American Campaign Medal, The European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal, and the World War II Victory Medal. After leaving the service, Gable first returned to his ranch and rested. It wasn’t long before he returned to acting in his first movie after World War II titled “Adventure.” At the age of 59, Clark Gable passed away on November 16, 1960 due to coronary thrombosis. He is interred in the Great Mausoleum, Memorial Terrace, at Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park next to Carole Lombard and her mother. ------------------------------- ➜ FOLLOW THE GOLDEN AGE ⚡️🎥 INSTAGRAM - https://ift.tt/2Tq4TVI FACEBOOK - https://ift.tt/3cQOlhl ------------------------------- ➜ Music ♫ Music by Atomica Music Library Song: Red White And Blue Composer(s): Max DiCarlo ------------------------------- FTC - This video is NOT sponsored.

⚡️🎥 SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL: https://bit.ly/TheGoldenAgeonYT ------------------------------- #MarilynMonroe The police initially called it an accident, the coroner said it was a suicide, and conspiracy theorists say it was murder. But what is the real truth about the death of Marilyn Monroe? New developments have come to light about the starlet’s death in the form of unsealed documents belonging to her psychiatrist, Dr Ralph Greenson. On Saturday, August 4, 1962, Monroe spent the day at her home in Brentwood, California. She was visited at various times by publicist Patricia Newcomb, housekeeper Eunice Murray, photographer Lawrence Schiller and psychiatrist Ralph Greenson. At about 3AM, Marilyn’s housekeeper Eunice Murray noticed the light was still on in Monroe’s bedroom. After she found that the door was locked, she began to knock and shout Marilyn’s name to no response. Murray went outside and looked into the bedroom through the closed French windows. Monroe, she later told the police, looked "peculiar." An arm was stretched across the bed and a hand hung limp on a telephone, she said. She then called Dr. Greenson, Marilyn’s psychiatrist. The doctor raced over, took a poker from the fireplace, smashed in a window and climbed into the room. He found Marilyn lying nude on her bed, face down, with a telephone receiver grasped in one hand. She was covered by a sheet and champagne-colored blanket which were both tucked up around her shoulders. Greenson took the phone receiver out of her hand, turned to Eunice and said, “She appears to be dead.” Dr Greenson then made a call to Marilyn’s physician, Dr. Hyman Engelberg, who pronounced her dead at 3:50AM. Finally, the police were called and arrived around 4:25AM. It was estimated that she died 6-8 hours prior. Sergeant Byron said Miss Monroe's bedroom was neat, but sparsely furnished. He estimated it at fifteen feet square. "All she had in the room, so far as I can recall, was the bed, a little dressing table and the night table. And the telephone that she pulled on the bed." Empty bottles of pills, prescribed to treat her depression, were littered around the room. By her side was an empty bottle that had held 50 capsules of Nembutal, a drug often used as a sleeping pill. After a brief investigation, Los Angeles police concluded that her death was “caused by a self-administered overdose of sedative drugs and that the mode of death is probable suicide.” Marilyn’s body was then wrapped in a pale blue blanket and strapped to a stretcher as it was removed from the home and transported to the Westwood Village Mortuary in the back of a station wagon. The house was sealed and placed under guard with the notice: “Any person breaking into or entering these premises will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” Oddly, the scene was never declared a crime scene. The body was then taken to the coroner’s office where an autopsy was performed by Tsunetomi Noguchi. Marilyn was then known as coroner’s case number 81128 and the body was placed in crypt 33. The toxicology report showed that Marilyn’s blood contained the sleeping pill chloral hydrate and her liver showed the presence of the barbiturate Nembutal. In 2019, a private detective, Becky Altringer, came across a mysterious box of Marilyn Monroe documents belonging to her psychiatrist Dr Ralph Greenson. The documents, which are sealed until 2039, could prove Marilyn was murdered by her obsessed psychiatrist. ------------------------------- ➜ FOLLOW THE GOLDEN AGE ⚡️🎥 INSTAGRAM - https://ift.tt/2Tq4TVI FACEBOOK - https://ift.tt/3cQOlhl ------------------------------- ➜ Music ♫ 'Still' by Ross Bugden: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQKGLOK2FqmVgVwYferltKQ ------------------------------- FTC - This video is NOT sponsored.
