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

Young, terrified of going to Hell and with warnings from the family priest ringing in her ears, would flirt but never succumb to advances from her co-stars.

That, however, was about to change. On the train back to Los Angeles from Seattle, the cast was, as Lewis tells it, given separate compartments.

Somewhere between Seattle and Los Angeles, Gable entered her compartment and, a month later, a humiliated Young discovered she was pregnant.
