During the 1960s, most of Hayworth's film work was in Europe. When she filmed a movie in the United States, her roles were small bit parts. She was married five times. This was around the same time she was being affected by an early onset (at age 42) of Alzheimer’s Disease. The diagnosis wasn’t made until 1980, but because of the progression of the disease, Miss Hayworth was given smaller roles. In 1981, Rita Hayworth was no longer able to take care of herself.

Rita left her film career in 1948 to marry Prince Aly Khan, the son of the Aga Khan, the leader of the Ismaili sect of Shia Islam. Initially Hayworth and Prince Aly had trysts at the Pontchartrain Hotel in New Orleans. The couple moved to Europe, causing a media frenzy. Joseph L. Mankiewicz, in writing and directing 1954's The Barefoot Contessa, was said to have based his title character, Maria Vargas (played on film by Ava Gardner), on Hayworth's life and her marriage to Aly Khan.

The smoky Hayworth is on the famous cover of Life magazine for Aug. 11, 1941, luxurious-haired, full-lipped, longing and mischief combined in a slightly asymmetrical gaze--the literal roving eye? It was a photo that attracted millions of men, wrapping her up with the war in a way no other move icon was; the bomb at Bikini atoll was nicknamed "Gilda." After the war, Hayworth's persona shifted into a predatory, powerfully sexual women, one of the first such that would haunt film from the noirs to the wretched excesses of Joe Eszterhas.

Rita and Aly Khan married in May 1949. The marriage did not last, but while it did, Rita made no movies. This, combined with Harry Cohn's insane policy, meant that after completing "You Were Never Lovelier" in 1942, Rita Hayworth, one of the most popular film stars in the world, made only six movies until the beginning of 1952.
