Bob Hope's Scandalous Life Was Unsettling


People have called Bob Hope the “Entertainer of the 20th Century,” and he was no less than a titan of Old Hollywood. But behind the scenes of Hope’s family-friendly career is a life of rivalry, scandal, and very dirty little secrets. 

Hope was married to the same woman for more than 70 years—but that didn't stop him from carrying out dozens of secret affairs. Doris Day was Hope's many mistresses—and ironically, the couple fell into each other's arms while on a charity tour. Newspapers had caught wind of their illicit romance—but they weren't the only ones. 

Hope's wife found out too. When the pair returned from their tour, they stepped off the plane and found a chilling sight awaiting them: Hope's wife showed up at the airport unexpectedly. She pushed herself between the two of them and gave her husband a nice, big, and pointed welcome hug. The message was clear: Stay away from my man.
