Gloria left Hollywood behind in pursuit of theater roles in London, England. That's when she met and fell in love with actor Peter Turner.
A final shot at love
Gloria, who wasn't a stranger to controversy, began another May-December romance with Peter, who was 30 years younger.
At the time, it was unsual and frowned upon for a young man to be involved with a woman much older than him.
However, society's taboos did not faze Gloria or Peter.
“First friends and then lovers, we were an unlikely couple, and not just because she was almost 30 years older than me and had been married four times," Peter said.
The couple became closer as time passed, and before long, Peter was flying across the pond with his belongings and moving into Gloria's New York City apartment.
But, soon after making the big move, Gloria began to display bizarre behavior. She would disappear for days at a time without explanation, and that not only worried Peter, it also frustrated him.
He returned home, and did not communicate with the actress for a year.
Then came the unexpected phone call.
In 1981, Peter received a call from a theater in Lancaster informing him that Gloria had collapsed and was rushed to a hospital.
Upon reconnecting with his ex-girlfriend, he learned that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and that is why she had been so distant.
