In 1987, People Magazine had an article about Jackie Gleason. The text is now online. It says, "In 1952 Gen and Jackie were legally separated, and soon after that he fell in love with a 27-year-old dancer named Marilyn Taylor, the sister of June Taylor. She was quiet, pretty and warmhearted, and he asked her-to marry him the minute he got a divorce. But Gen refused to give him a divorce. Marilyn waited four years, then married another man. Some months later Jackie took up with Glea-Girl Honey Merrill, who hung on for 13 years before she did the same." This article explains a rumor that I heard around 1952. The rumor was that Jackie Gleason was having an affair with June Taylor. His wife was a good Catholic and refused to give him a divorce. People magazine's article shows how the rumor got started. The rumor just had the wrong Taylor sister. Marilyn and Jackie Gleason's mutual affection lasted almost 40 years.
