Andy Griffith was very attractive to most women back when the show was on. Turns out that he had a real-life affair with one of the women while filming The Andy Griffith Show. Even though they tried to keep it under wraps, the entire cast and crew reportedly knew about it!
Even though Andy was married to Barbara Bray Edwards at the time, he reportedly had a fling with Aneta Corsaut. She played the schoolteacher Helen Crump. They dated on the show and became romantically involved and tried to keep it a secret.
Author Daniel de Visé said, “Andy couldn’t get enough of Aneta. Eventually, he proposed, even though he was already married. He popped the question at least once and possibly two or three times, as Aneta hinted in later years. She turned him down.”
