Betsy Drake dating history

Not too many people realize that two famous Hollywood actresses Betsy Drake and Ruth Roman were passengers on-board the ill-fated Italian luxury liner the SS Andrea Doria. At the time, Drake had been visiting Grant in Spain and was returning to the United States. She boarded the Doria, along with dozens of other wealthy travelers and tourists, at Gibraltar, which was one of many stops the ship made between her home port of Genoa and her final destination of New York. Drake sailed as a first-class passenger, occupying a single cabin on the ship's boat deck. When the Doria collided with the Stockholm, Drake waited with the other passengers for rescue, as the ship's severe list rendered half the Doria's lifeboats useless. She was among more than 700 people rescued from the Doria by the famed French passenger liner Ile de France

Betsy Drake's personality could not be any less than sweet as she played in movies.

After she was separated from Grant, she had a long love afire with English director Raymond Austin. At that time he was a stuntman and driver to Grant.

When she appeared with Grant,her face would light up and her eyes are beautiful. In my opinion Drake was a very good actress with style and looks,she is fun to watch, a real screen stealer.
