Some Hollywood stars get our attention for living glamorous, larger-than-life lives.

Others, like Hollywood heartthrob Sam Elliott, have attracted attention for a completely different reason: proving to the world that true love does exist.

Elliott, 79, has been married to his beloved wife Katharine Ross for no less than three long decades.

Hollywood heartthrob Sam Elliott certainly has countless female fans around the world. But he has eyes for only one woman: his wife of three decades, Katharine Ross.

The two originally met on the set of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, where Ross had a leading part. Meanwhile, as Elliott told AARP, “I was just a shadow on the wall, a glorified extra in a bar scene.”

While it was love at first sight for Elliot after seeing Ross, he dared not act on his feelings. He saw himself as a “glorified extra” and Ross as a Hollywood star.

“All I could do was just watch Katharine come and go,” he recalls, adding, “I never spoke to her. I never would even think to speak to her.”

Needless to say, Elliott was immediately taken by Ross. But he wouldn’t give up and waited patiently for the right time.

But it wasn’t until they met again on the set of The Legacy in 1978 that he finally dared interact with her.

The hit it off immediately — and six years later, they were married. Ross had previously been in four marriages, whereas this was Elliott’s very first.UncategorizedLeave a Comment
