Hi Liz -

Yeah, The Sewing Circle has a lot of Hollywood Babylon type gossip but
it does also have some truth to it too. Marjorie and Spring DID have a
long term relationship. They even lived together for some time in later
years. Of course, back in those times the public would look upon it as
just two ladies living together and it was innocent enough. I don't
know if the public was that naive back then...or they just chose not to
see the truth.

Marjorie admitted to a few "special women in her life," but they
remained nameless. Spring was really the only woman that she admitted
to "being with." Both actresses played the mother type roles on screen
but Marjorie was so gruff and say it like it is while Spring was so
sweet and syrupy. They were complete opposites.

Both women were once married...to men! - Spring was married for five
years and had two daughters and Marjorie was married for fourteen years
and had no children.

Hope this helps!

Michelle x
