Katharine Hepburn photographed by Howard Hughes. Some very personal and passionate love letters written by Kate as well as this framed photo are being sold from Howard’s personal belongings via Profiles in History.
“Certainly I felt that I was madly in love with him. And I think he felt the same way about me. But when it came right down to ‘What do we do now?’ I went East and he stayed West. We’d been together about three years. Ambition beat love, or was it like?” – Katharine Hepburn in Me: Stories of My Life.
It is known that Howard asked Katharine many times to marry him and although she never agreed to it and the romance fizzled out by the time she met Spencer Tracy, it is extremely fascinating that in one of the handwritten letters she refers to herself as his fiancée!
