Everything was beautiful, and nothing hurt
Team Actress II: Katharine Hepburn
I want to thank you all for letting me re-unite Tracy & Hepburn in the QV. They starred in 9 films together and had 26 year long relationship that was an open secret in Hollywood which ended only with Tracy's death. Tracy got up into the middle of the night to make tea. Hepburn was following him into the kitchen when she heard a thump and found him dead on the floor of a heart attack. The official story in the press was that he was found the next day by his housekeeper. She didn't attend his funeral, out of respect for his family.
Their chemistry was undeniable, even as they grew into middle age, and Hepburn was no second fiddle but a lion in her own right. She's magnetic in The Philadelphia Story and steals the show in The Lion in Winter, among many others.
