After 20 years, they divorced
In 1960, after ten years of countless ups and downs in their relationship, Lucy decided that nothing was going to help them overcome their issues. She was fed up with his absence, his substance abuse, and his infidelity, and decided with a heavy heart that she was going to file for divorce yet again.
At first, Lucy thought of taking her two kids and moving to Switzerland to escape the stresses of managing a production company and the constant buzz from Hollywood. Instead, she wound up moving to the other side of the country and starting a career on Broadway.
