#10: Joan Crawford and Douglas Fairbanks Jr.
When a young Joan Crawford secretly married Douglas Fairbanks Jr. in 1929, his powerful family was shocked. They, along with studio bosses, saw Crawford as a low-class girl who would damage the Fairbanks name. News of their wedding was kept out of the major Hollywood trade papers for as long as possible in a desperate attempt to protect Fairbanks’s refined, high-society image.
