Iconic 70s actress sparks strong reactions
Dyan Cannon was one of Hollywood’s most recognizable stars,
known for her charm, wit, and long-spanning career.
She earned three Oscar nominations, multiple Golden Globe nominations,
won a Saturn Award, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1983.
Audiences remember her for films like Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,
Heaven Can Wait, and Deathtrap, where she balanced humor with emotional depth.
A defining chapter of her life was her marriage to Cary Grant.
They married in the early 1960s despite a 33-year age gap.
Cannon later said the relationship came at a heavy personal cost,
explaining that Grant tried to control her appearance,
behavior, and career, and the marriage ended after three years.
Their daughter, Jennifer, born in 1966, remained their strongest connection.
In her late 80s, Cannon continues to attract public attention.
She credits faith and resilience for her peace, saying she is now “a happy puppy now.”
