Actor Ben Gazzara opens up about his bittersweet romance with Hollywood legend Audrey Hepburn, revealing the deep sadness that enveloped their relationship.
Despite being captivated by Hepburn's mesmerizing beauty, she constantly doubted her acting abilities.
Their love story blossomed during the filming of “Bloodline” in the late 1970s, as both Gazzara and Hepburn found solace in each other's company while facing marital difficulties.
However, Gazzara reflects on their time together with mixed emotions, as he struggled to reconcile the overwhelming connection they shared with the impossibility of a future together.
Hepburn had a life in Europe, particularly in Switzerland, where she was deeply rooted.
On the other hand, Gazzara resided in Los Angeles, leading separate lives that hindered the development of their romance.
As Gazzara poignantly states, “Life got in the way of romance.”
Throughout their brief affair, Gazzara devoted much effort to boosting Hepburn's confidence in her acting abilities.
He vividly remembers a conversation they had in Munich, while enjoying a drink.
Hepburn confessed, “Do you know Ben, I never thought I was a good actress.”
Her humility and modesty were intrinsic to her genuine on-screen presence, illuminating every room
