In 1966 Cheryl Miller became engaged to Lt. Charles Hutter III who was stationed in Colorado in the Air Force. His doctor dad arranged a date between the two after treating Miller for a foot ailment. The two announced their engagement at a party on New Year’s Eve with the intention of marrying the following year. However, they called off the wedding several months later, “substituting friendship for marriage.”
March 67 columnist Harrison Carroll tells: "With her steady, Lieutenant Charles Hutter III, now stationed in Biloxi, Cheryl Miller of ‘Daktari,’ is seeing Ron Harper. Oddly, their two series (he's in the new 'Garrison's Gorillas') will be seen opposite each other next season."
November 67 she and Lt. Charles Hutter III announce their engagement at a family party. Hutter is a physicist, stationed with the Air Force in Colorado Springs, Colorado. They plan to be married on January 1, 1968.
