 She was completely different from her mother: what Vivien Leigh’s only daughter looked like

The talented celebrity Vivien Leigh was raised up in a boarding house at the monastery, but dreamed to be an actress. When she entered the Academy of Dramatic Arts at her 18, she met a man who was over 30. At that time, lawyer Herbert Lee Holman had a fiancee, however, Vivien decided that she would get the desired man in any way. As you might have guessed, Herbert could not resist the charms of the actress. In the marriage of Vivienne and Herbert, a daughter was born.

The man didn’t share Vivien’s interests and hoped that his wife’s love for cinema would soon come to end. Vivien, on the other hand, dreamed of the theater and a brilliant career. Soon, Leigh starred in the film ”Gone with the Wind”, becoming one of the charming and successful stars in Hollywood.

So their little daughter was raised by her father and she didn’t actually see her mother. Susannah had been offended by her mom for many years. Vivien soon became dissatisfied with her life and left her family. Susanna stayed with her dad. Later, the actress still managed to establish contact with her only daughter.

The girl was able to forgive her mom for all her childhood grievances. Leigh hoped for her grandchildren, however, the she was not destined to see Susanna’s adult children. She passed away at 53.

Susanna devoted herself to her heirs and left them 4 years ago at 82.
