Deceased: Where are they now?
Doris Day is best known for the 1953 film Calamity Jane. Although she was a well-known actress, Day’s life wasn’t easy. Day had been married four times, and after her third marriage she was completely broke. She discovered that her husband and his business partner spent all her savings.
Terry Melcher was also known to have had connections with Charles Manson. This ruined his reputation. Day, however, was a passionate animal lover and spent most of his post-retirement time caring for abandoned and stray animals. She opened one of the United States’ first pet-friendly hotel.
