“He really was a unique creature Spencer – I was lucky to be the one – So I try to think of that” - Katharine Hepburn in a hand written response to Anne Kramer’s letter of condolence (June 1967) Even after caring for his every need for years, semi-retiring for him, finding doctors/treatments, etc. Kate still felt the need to protect Mrs. Tracy before the Tracys arrived by briefly moving her own things from the house before she realized what she was doing was ridiculous. In the videos in this post, you can see how she still defended Louise Tracy publicly - During the same interview, Donahue labeled Katharine as the other woman which she reminded him that his marriage was pretty much over before she came on to the scene. “When he needed taking care of, she was the one who did it. She was right there all the time.” - Susie Tracy (Larry King Live, 2003) Rest in peace, Spencer Tracy! (d. June 10th 1967) (VIDEOS: Katharine Hepburn talks about Spencer Tracy and the night he died on this semi-rare Phil Donahue interview, 1991) • #katharinehepburn #spencertracy #phildonahue #louisetracy #mrsspencertracy #johntracy #onthisday #onthisdate https://www.instagram.com/p/CBRCf6EHznF/?igshid=1jd0310hvdm8
