	"Real movie stars who had a Romeo and Juliet love affair" Name: Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy City: NYC Last Active: 1 year ago
	About Me What would you do if you were a very famous movie star, in love with your on-screen co-star...but your MGM studio boss Louis B. Mayer and even your mother didn't like him! Mayer ruled your career and threatened to drop your contract if you ran off and eloped. No other studio would hire you...So if you had to choose between love and your career, which would you choose? That was the problem facing singer Jeanette MacDonald in the 1930s. She and her co-star Nelson Eddy made 8 films together at MGM and were the most famous international singing stars of their day. Their movies were in the top ten box office for three years. They were secretly engaged and wanted to marry...but when Jeanette bowed to Mayer's wishes and married someone else, she lived to regret her decision. On her honeymoon, she discovered her husband was gay...she secretly returned to Nelson Eddy, was pregnant with his child within months and again had to face Mayer's wrath. The story only gets better from there...and it was all true. Within a few years Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy vanished from the Hollywood scene, carrying on a secret love affair all the rest of their lives.
