(1921 - 7 April 1955) (her death)
Bara married British-born American film director Charles Brabin (1883–1957) in 1921. They honeymooned in Nova Scotia and there at Harbourville purchased a 400 hectares (990 acres) property overlooking the Bay of Fundy, eventually building a summer home they called Baranook. They had no children.
It is claimed her husband did not consider it proper for his wife to have a career, and this is why she did not make many more appearances after her marriage – although by 1921 her popularity was already waning.
Brabin wed silent-film "vamp" star Theda Bara in 1921, remaining married to her until her death from abdominal cancer in April 1955 and becoming one of the rare long-lasting Hollywood marriages.
