Dyan Cannon became one of Hollywood’s most beloved stars, earning Oscar nominations and fame through films like Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, Heaven Can Wait, and Deathtrap.
Behind the glamour, however, was a complicated personal life — especially her marriage to legendary actor Cary Grant. The couple married in 1965 despite a 33-year age gap, and Cannon later revealed she struggled to meet Grant’s expectations, changing her appearance and lifestyle to please him while slowly losing herself in the process.
Their marriage ended in 1968 after just three years, though Cannon later spoke about Grant with gratitude rather than bitterness. Together they had a daughter, Jennifer Grant, who became Grant’s only child.
Over the years, Cannon remained active in Hollywood while also facing public scrutiny over aging and her appearance. Today, the 88-year-old actress says faith has helped her find peace and happiness. She hosts Bible studies, volunteers with recovering addicts, and credits spirituality for helping her through life’s heartbreaks.
Looking back on her life, Cannon says she finally found happiness after years of struggle and self-discovery.
