The iconic 1953 film "Roman Holiday" sparked speculation about a romantic connection between the actors starring in the main roles, Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn, off-screen.
Peck maintained that his feelings for Audrey were limited to admiration, while she hinted at a mutual affection that enhanced their on-screen chemistry.
Their bond grew stronger when Peck, already an established star, advocated for Hepburn, a newcomer, ensuring that their names were equally prominent on the posters and that they received matching fees for their roles. This act of support laid the foundation for a lasting friendship.
Peck remained a loyal friend to Hepburn until her tragic passing. During her funeral in 1993 he bid farewell with a heartfelt recitation of her favorite poem, "Eternal Love," shedding tears for his "Roman princess Anna."
