Life Before Elliott
Katharine Ross had far more than her share of difficulty in relationships. Before she fell in love with Elliott, she had been married four times. In fact, when she made Sam’s acquaintance on the set of The Legacy, she was still married to her fourth husband, Gaetano Lisi. In 1979 she and Lisi got divorced.

Being Himself
When the two felt that the time was right, they announced their love to the public. As they imagined, the media was ablaze with excitement – they were one of the hottest couples in Hollywood. In 1976, the pair agreed to have an interview with Playgirl magazine. It was during that interview that Elliot famously said, “I don’t want to be known as a sex symbol. There’s a great stigma that goes with that tag. I want to be a Sam Elliott.”
