The couple met in 1942 in the movie "Tish." They acted together again in "Dr. Gillispe`s New Assistant," during which they became engaged.
The couple married in 1943 and adopted their son in 1946.
In 1947, Susan Peters asks Richard Quine for a divorce. No one is able to talk her out of it. She feels they could probably live together for eight years, but the marriage is not going well. She thinks they should end it while both are young enough to make new lives and before their son is old enough to be hurt by the separation. Quine fears people will think he walked out on Susan, he tells Louella Parsons. He makes it clear the divorce is strictly her idea. Their divorce is finalized in September 1948.
Susan never remarried and died in 1952.
Richard Quine remarried to Fran Jeffries in 1965 but committed suicide in 1989.
