— Yes! I am going to marry Tyrone Power, says Linda Christian — this, despite his wife Annabella. It

The bewitching Mexican girl whom Tyrone Power had scarcely met before he was smitten with her, driven quite mad, and set about seeking a divorce

appears that a coolness had earlier arisen between him and Annabella, so much so that we saw him take up with Lana Turner, before this Linda Christian.

— And will the marriage take place in Italy?

— Quite possibly, for I shall be there next winter while he is acting in the film "Prince of Foxes," and we shall stay in Europe until the middle of January; by then the divorce decree from Annabella will have run its course, and then I shall marry him in spite of all the difficulties that may stand between us — for I love Tyrone and he loves me!

We shall be married in church, and I shall wear a long white gown and a beautiful veil, and I shall carry a great bouquet of bridal flowers... I shall realize all the hopes I used to dream of, for our marriage will be final, for the length of a lifetime!

The truth is that Susie suits me, and I have proofs that I suit her; we are happy in our marriage, and we were friends before we were sweethearts.

In the first stage of our life before marriage, failure was in league against me and would not let me be, until I nearly despaired of acting and gave it up — had it not been for Susie's faith in me, her confidence, and her encouraging words. I owe to her my success and the spread of my name among the stars of Hollywood.

Her devotion went so far that when my name became known, she wanted to withdraw from my life and refused to marry me, lest the marriage harm my success... And it was not easy to persuade her to go back on her resolve except by a threat! — when I swore to her that I would give up
