Dyan Cannon: Cary Grant
built 178 days ago
Bio: Dyan Cannon (1937-) was Oscar-nominated for her performance in the 1969 film, "Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice." Mother of actress Jennifer Grant, a result of Cannon's short-lived marriage to film legend Cary Grant.
It helps that 69 year-old Dyan Cannon, who still looks like she could be in her thirties, is the star. Cannon had a famous comeback a few years ago playing a sexy judge dating a much younger lawyer on TV's "Ally McBeal." It's difficult to imagine that this bombshell, with her cascading ringlets of blond hair, was once married to Cary Grant.
Dyan Cannon Born in Tacoma, Washington, Cannon dreamt of being a star from an early age and made her big-screen debut with a small part in the acclaimed crime drama, The Rise and Fall of Legs Diamond (1960). She spent most of the early 1960s on the small screen in a variety of shows and caught the eye of one of Hollywood's favourite leading men, Cary Grant, 35 years her senior.

They separated within 18 months, with Cannon claiming that Grant spanked her for disobeying him. The divorce was finalized on March 21, 1968, but the custody disputes over their daughter went on for years.
