- Iconic. Controversial. Pioneering. Katharine Hepburn was a lot of things - but, above all else, she was unconventional. So it makes perfect sense that her will would be just as unpredictable as her life and career!

It amuses me when people say that Spencer was a "devout Catholic". If true, would he have had an affair for 25 years with another woman? How "devout" is that??
They were both gay! Their relationship was a close friendship where they covered for each other for years with the public. Tracy was Catholic so the guilt was terrific and a motivating factor in his alcoholism. They were better actors than the public dreamed of and they were both terrific.
Thank you for remembering Hepburn one of my favorites of all time as far as I’m concerned. She was wonderful, full of purpose and determination and boy did she filled the screen for me. I knew where she lived in Manhattan, I worked 2 blocks from her townhouse but I only went to see it once. I had promised myself and her that day that I would never again invade her privacy, instead in the spring and summer I would go to a little park that was in the neighborhood for lunch and would keep an eye out for her. I could never have approached her due to my promise but it would have been a highlight nevertheless in my life if I would have been given just a moment to have seen her in the flesh. Yes I was in love with her since I first saw her on screen, she was a good 20 years older than me by then but I’m still in love with her and shall remain so for the remainder of mine. She was someone that I wanted to emulate not in riches and fame but in her strength of will, her belief in herself and what she believed was right and wrong for her. She followed no one and danced to the beat of her own drum. What a woman!
My goodness. A true fan. Giving a damn about your idol. The opposite of the ‘fans’ who are in fact only in love with themselves and do not actually love their idols
Hello , if you are a true fan perhaps you may know, why on earth, Katherine visited my home town of Morecambe, ( pronounced More-cam. ) England in, probably the 50s/60s. It was rumoured she had family in the area and she was pictured, with Spencer Tracy, at a house my parents purchased at a later date. I have always been curious, so it would be great if someone could tell me.
@@jameswalkden7499 fabulous mystery
Absolutely agree and like the way you expressed things. I too admired her and loved her movies. She was in her senior years when I was born.
She didn't live with Spencer Tracy in secret, the press respected them and didn't harass them about it and she out of respect, didn't attend the funeral of Spencer out of respect for his wife...
Blah blah, she had so much respect for his wife she slept with her husband and lived with him for decades!!!!!!! What?
@@bojack40 Mrs. Tracy apparently refused to give her husband a divorce.
@Joan In Florida you tell the truth but the silly myths persist
Yes, petty little myths indeed!
@Joan In Florida isn't that what you did with that scandal you had back in 2012?
She used to go to the Hotel San Juan in Puerto Rico yearly in Winter, where I met her in around 1974 in the Lemon Tree Cafe at 3 am. I was at a formal party and had gone down from the ballroom for a snack to eat with my date. I waved and she asked in her unmistakable voice if I knew her and I responded I'm a fan! My mother is too! She was with a girlfriend and I didn't want to intrude or interrupt her meal further but I was totally starstruck. She was sooo humble!
She was humble and you were so lucky to meet her, I'm envious,
It’s wonderful to learn something new about someone that you admire and adore from afar even after they have long gone. She was one of my favorite people, so thank you for this and may good will and happiness always stand alongside you🌹
This lady was amazing
She was the best actress ever.
My favorite actress of all time. ❤️🕊️🙏
The fact she took care of her personal employees says it all for a woman of great compassion toward those dedicated to her.
The epitome of caring and sharing!
RIP Great Lady!!!
She’s always been one of my top 5 smoke shows! Absolutely Stunning and Great Actor
I've only had one child, he was born in Naples Italy in April 1982. I will always remember the night I went into labor I was eating popcorn and drinking a soda at a military base watching on Golden Pond, I refused to leave until the movie ended. It was wonderful.
That woman is the best in everything she ever did. She ruled what she touched.
Fabulous Actress & strong personality. What a woman.
I loved her she was special and danced to her own drum gone but not forgotten
big ego
And she was one of the hardest actresses ever. Many people didn’t want to work with her.
@Joan In Florida They are not sisters.
Still one of my all time favorite actresses and a fellow Yankee New Englander with part Scottish ancestry! Just watched the fabulous "Lion in Winter" with the late great Irish actor Peter O'Toole! Named my first born daughter who is 46 now after my late beloved mother, Eleanor, and also named her for 'Eleanor of Aquitane", a French queen who married English King Henry and named her after Kate, the Great here, too, Katharine, both redheads as well! Mostly English/Scottish/Irish and French ancestry on my maternal side per our DNA tests, written and oral history. Thanks Grunge! BTW, her beloved older brother's death was an accident, not a suicide and he was trying out a trick they had seen in a recent show that went horribly wrong. That also took place at their aunt's home in an upstairs bedroom in Greenwich Village, NYC, not in a barn. May they rest in peace~ ♥♥
Love the line in Lion in Winter when Katherine H. as Eleanor says the line about not hanging a necklace from the nipples because it will shock the children
About 3:00 minutes they talk about her inheritors. Before that they just talk about her career.
She was one of my most favorite of those times congrats In heaven Katherine Hepburn
I always liked her movies. Now I learn I admire her choices in life. She was a smart and kind woman. I wish I knew how she survived so long. My dad passed at 86 from a surgery issue. I'm in my sixties and don't feel strong.
She loved her Mother and Father, she loved her siblings,she had a few flings but the ultimate love of her life was Spencer Tracy....he was in her own words a difficult man but she found him " totally irresistible". She placed her own comforts on the side just to accommodate his on and off personality. He essentially abandoned his wife and deaf son and that somewhat ate him up.He supported them but with his religious roots...it was never enough. She understood and became good friends with his daughter Susie ( I think) after he passed...
Their relationship was a sham. They both hid their real sexuality for decades. Kate was well known as a very staunch lesbian. It’s also said she carried on a decades old relationship with her assistant. This type of scenario was repeated many times in Hollywood to keep face. Sad, but true.
@Joan In Floridait’s sad to me they had to live a lie, but it seems they managed to live their alternative lifestyle quite heartily regardless! Marilyn and Joan Crawford in a tryst is the one I can’t wrap my head around! Wow!
@@jnnnx6586 True in your mind does not make it real . You sound like a old gossiping biddy. They have never said & are dead so respect & its not your business.
@@jnnnx6586 Because its gossip & have no life of their own
@@patriciaoreilly8907 I used to live in West Hollywood for many years. Believe me, and many of her biographers. It’s true.
Her grandfather Sewell Hepburn was an Episcopal priest at Christ Church I.U. in Worton, Maryland - where he once served as rector. I.U. stands for Isaac Usilton - who donated the land and paid for the church to be built upon it in the mid 1700s. Katharine was my 9th cousin, 7x removed. I never met her, but greatly admired her from afar. The most appalling event in her life was to find her older brother hanging by his neck - lifeless in the barn. It was most likely a stunt gone awry. She cut him down, and ran out into the street to find a doctor. Bless all of them as they rest, awaiting the general resurrection... 🌷
Amen. incredibly interesting, thanks for sharing. Always an admirer of Ms. Hepburn & fellow Episcopalian ❣️
@@traciezolman9212 Although our Hepburn heritage is Scottish, many of us are Episcopalians.

@@suzanneribas3746 That's a wonderful story and memory! I've met a couple of celebrities who were not very nice in person. But two others were very kind indeed. Met Jack Benny at the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs when I was a teenager during breakfast. He invited my whole family over to his table while he waited on his grandchildren to come downstairs. My mother was so starstruck I thought she was in a coma! In my twenties I met Lauren Bacall in the hallway of the Dakota Apartments in New York City. I was at a party, and had stepped into the hallway to drop the trash down the chute. She was so sweet - and was going inside to take an aspirin after a boring dinner party. 🤩
I just watched "Who's Coming to Dinner." I loved that movie. Spencer Tracy and Katherine were so cute together. I love the part that she took care of him when he was struggling with Parkinsons.
Yep, I remember the movie on the golden pond as a child, starring the legendary Henry Fonda and Katharine Hepburn.
She didn't have Parkinson's, she had essential tremor. Parkinson's long term has a very different outcome and Parkinson's sufferers don't live into their 90s.
Katharine was a breath of intelligent air.
Hello Susan, So nice to have you as a friend here and is great hearing from you. I would really love us to know each other more better,
Hope you don’t mind?😊
I loved her because she was so outspoken and classy. It's sad that she and Spencer Tracy couldn't have gotten married. They were definitely made for each other.
One of a kind lady
Siempre fue mi actriz preferida. La admiro como ser humano. D.E.P
Personally I First Remember seeing Ms. Hepburn in Late 1969 or possibly 1970. IT was in The Lion in Winter, The Film about Henry the Eighth's Story.
Her Portrall of One of His Wife's
was just Fantastic, and 🙂😊 I'm Lol, Remembering & thinking 🤔🤔 about it now that I was maybe 11-12 when I First saw it.
In Recalling Katherine's Acting.
Whatever she was in? She gave it Her absolute All or it was Nothing at all 😂🤣. I Guess? Her being in On Golden Pond was My favorite Film of Her's or Rooster Cogburn & The Lady. The Choice is Hard for Me too make still. And I just Recalled that She was Excellent, & Fantastic. Opposite Humphrey Bogart. In The African Queen 👑👑👑 Film of Course!!!! Alas She was a Great, Great, Talent & One Helluva Woman To Boot. May She RIP, & May God Bless Her. Thank You whoever for Closing Her Life up.
It was King Henry II not Henry VIII and she played Eleanor of Aquitaine
To Suzanne Lancaster. Thank You for Correcting Me on the King 👑👑 issue in that Film 📽️📽️. I'M now Older & My memory sometimes Stinks 🦨😩🦨.
Katherine Houghton from Guess who’s coming to dinner was her niece! Not Katherine Ross not at all!
Best actress in the world
Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy were both bisexual. Rumors of their affair conveniently overshadowed stories of their
secret lives. It worked for the
studios. A few books came out in
the last few decades went into
more detail.
Oh, yeah, Scotty Bowers ‘Full service’ !
Anyone recall that incredible monologue she did in ‘Suddenly Last Summer’ , telling Montgomery Clift about when her son had for ed her to see the tougher side of nature, the reality of life she’d protected herself from ? I play it occasionally for the joy if watching her perform it. I act a little and I only DREAM I could do anything like she did. Might go watch it now, come to think of it, lol (PS - if anyone is interested, its on youtube and its to be found when you type in something to the effect of : “Katherine Hepburn Suddenly Last Summer The face of God’. Cheers everyone
She seem to have been very fair with the distribution of her wealth. .
She NEVER LIVED WM SPENCER TRACY. They shared an everlasting love. She was born into wealth. ...
I didn't even know she died
She will forever remain immortal to many of us❤
Best actress EVER!
1. KATHARINE HEPBURN DID NOT HAVE PARKINSON'S. She has what is called a familial or essential tremor. It is inherited. She inherited it from her grandfather.
2. THE CHURCH IN MARYLAND. That was the church her grandfather - her father's father - was minister. This grandfather had the essential tremor he passed down to KH and other relatives.
3. CYNTHIA MCFADDEN was named executor of KH's will by KH
4. THE PHILADELPHIA STORY was written for her by playwright Phillip Barry. Ex-boyfriend, Howard Hughes, bought the screen rights as a gift for KH because he and KH both knew the Hollywood studios would not give it to her to play
You have confused Annette Bening with Ms. Hepburn in a couple of clips!!!
I thought she was a lovely lady
If you want the answer, go directly to the end of the video - the rest is just patter.
none of my business, nor yours.
She was a lesbian. She lived with women. Her career would have been over if word got out so the love story with Spencer Tracy was invented. Rock Hudson was forced to marry by the Hollywood moguls. It lasted 4 years. All kinds of stories about the gays were published so no one would know. The only actor who refused to give up his lover was William Haines. His career was over so he became an interior decorator.
That's BS. If no one would know, how do you know?
She stayed with him a secret. He didn't say she lived with him
Her father received her salary and gave Hepburn an allowance until he died. He also performed a tubal ligation on her as he decreed that she couldn’t be an actress and a mother. She also was in thrall to a hopeless alcoholic, Spencer Tracy, sometimes sleeping on the floor outside of his hotel room. They shared a cottage for 25 years with him but after he died, his wife came and cleaned out the cottage. She really wasn’t much of a feminist just a rather peculiar opinionated person.
3:06 is where the money went.
Thank you.
@@Lizwindsor Like you I hate going through the video, I only want to hear the facts and nothing else.
It’s not our business what she did with her money
She didn't have a happy life, actors normally don't.
You have to wonder if she regretted not having any children of her own.
This information is completely theatrics ! Spencer and Hepburn were very well protected from the true life that they lived.
How fucked up is it that she had to deny her sexuality?????????
Why did you include clips of Annette Bennington? Did you actually think that was Hepburn? Do you homework.
It was from a remake of Love Affair and Hepburn played the role of Cary Grants aunt in Italy...
@@kenjacoby7404 Yup!
She definitely was. I women of faith. Loved her as a actress. But no morals..
tracyy was a beard for hepburn she was a closet lesbian
She did not have Parkinsons
I never cared for her or her movies.
:-(
She was poor
Gay
She was a closet Lesbian, it is easy to figure it out. Tracy and her were friends, not lovers !!
That’s not true. They were great friends. She was lesbian
was there anything left than...proberbly the republicans or democrates...to buy lawnmowers or starspangledbuttons....
Katherine Ross is her niece.
Nope. Wrong. Katharine Hepburn did have a niece Katharine Houghton, who played Hepburn's daughter in the 1967 film Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. She and Ross are not related whatsoever.
never liked a family wrecker...her affair must have been excruciatingly painful for Spencer's wife...horrible thing to do
Not necrssarily..
She was not a home wrecker and were it not for the interference of ancient church doctrine, Spencer Tracy and wife may have been able to divorce
and Ms. Hepburn and he, may have had many years of happiness together.
No one on earth should be the judge of others.
The wife could have divorced. She would have had money to live. You can't stop love.
Hello, does anyone have any idea why Katherine would have visited my home town of Morecambe, ( pronounced More-cam. ) England in the 50s/60s ? She was pictured visiting friends/relatives with Spencer Tracy at 15, Regenr Park Grove. I have always wondered so it would be great if someone could enlighten me.
She was a lesbian
Yup, a great one
