Screen legend Maureen O’Hara finds happiness in move to Boise, Idaho

Is Maureen O'Hara really 92? And if it is true then that means I have been in love with her for 60 years. When I was 12 she was 32, which I agree doesn't look right, meaning a wisp of a boy falling in love with a woman aged 30, but stop there if you will, when she was 62, I was only 42 and that was acceptable then in the sense that people would understand. So I think I'd better write to her and propose, I'll start my letter Dear Mrs O’Hara, Maureen, when I was young it was not unheard off for young boys to dream about what the woman they would one day marry would look like, and when I dreamt of 'her' it was you. You were always my other women, my role model for a wife, so I think it's time to confess, I have loved you all my life. I will end my letter with ‘John Wayne was in love with you as well’, and why he never proposed his for millions one of lives greatest mysteries’. And long may you stay, forever young as you are, Love Bob, England.

What happened to the famous Irish sense of Humor? I loved the story over all , I take what I like and leave the rest! I wish there were more Quality in the movies such as The Quiet Man),and I have written one about Galway and the West of Ireland ; where I found graciousness Love and hospitality lke I never expierienced before. It Happened at Galway Bay ,1961 I am opinionated (like the Irish)of course I do Love John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara, Maureen couldn't have been brought into a Love story in a more Dramatic way! My story starts 20 yr's later with a Dance , one dance at Seapoint Ballroom , and we continued to Dance from Galway to Dublin for another quite Man to find Love and Happiness in the west of Ireland!

@michaelidaho, winters in Idaho are alot colder than in Ireland for sure. I travelled through Boise, it was one of the most morbid cold places i ever visited. Glengarriff or Boise, i know where i would want to be. At her time in life it's good she spends time with her grandchildren. The weather for the week ahead in Boise, daytime temperatures are below zero and overcast with snow, and alot colder at night. The daytime temperatures in Glengarriff is 12C and a night 8C, alot milder than in Boise.

Rebelforce, I do not not know where you are from but winters in Boise, Idaho are much more tolerable than Ireland or anywhere north of Virginia on the East Coast.

Norman, Jealous? What's to be Jealous of? How Thick you are. Have a look at yourselves, You lot are laughed at around the world. Your screwed up. And in denial. As i said a sad bunch. It's no surprise you are all armed and killing each other. Sad Crazy people.

bobby- Don't be jealous son..

Norman i just knew you would be first to crawl out of the hole and comment. Fake, Pretense and screwed up, all in the place you live. Happy Christmas, or do you say Happy Holidays..... SAD BUNCH

bobby- wrong..the Irish are fake as hell son.

@Schlomo you sound very Bitter, one thing about the Irish, they are not Fake.

Wonderful Lady - hope her days there in Boise are glorious making her forget the trauma she was put through - ya'll know where.

schlomo- correct... the stupidity & greed is always behind the facade of "shure aren't we a great people" crap.

I'm so glad there's been a follow-up article about Maureen O'Hara. I've been wondering how she is. I know the people in Ireland must miss her, although, she is probably happiest being with her grandson & great- grandchildren. I wish them all a Merry Christmas!

We were in Cong Co Mayo last summer to track the trail of the Quit Man,there's not much left of White O'Morn now,the cottage setting for the film but they have plans to rebuild,she has maintained she should have won an oscar for her role but that politics got in the way,i think everybody would agree with her,we wish Maureen every happiness in her new life,she is such a much loved icon for Irish people all over the world.

Excuse me, Croagh, Maureen was no Lindsey Lohan. Maureen was a very classy lady and still is. Get a grip.

Bless her heart, she can, and should do whatever the hell she wants. Hell has a special place for those that ubused her.
