Clark Gable Was Rumored To Have ‘Date-Raped’ Loretta Young, She Gave Birth To His Baby, And Kept It A Secret

Afterward, the then 85-year-old Young asked Lewis to explain what date rape meant. On hearing her daughter-in-law’s reply, she said: ‘That’s what happened between me and Clark.’

Lewis, who has since told her story to Buzzfeed journalist Anne Helen Petersen, was horrified but says for Young, the priority was always protecting Judy.

The same fear kept the family quiet as well but following Judy’s death aged 78 in 2011, Lewis and her husband Chris, Young’s son by her second husband Tom Lewis, decided to go public.
