Heartbreaking Update on ”Dallas” actress Linda Grey-

Linda Gray, who pIayed the legendary role of Sue Ellen Ewing in the hit show Dallas, had a life filled with excitement and a number of obstacles.
Recalling her childhood in Culver City, CaIifornia, she says how being given the chance to hang out with her friends around the filming studios triggered something in her that made her fall in love with acting. Her father, whom she describes as a rather cold person was always supportive of her career. Her mother used to be a heavy alcoholic while Linda and her sister were growing up so they had to take care of the house for long.

“She wasn’t falling down drunk, there was never any yeIIing,” Linda wrote in her book The Path to Happiness is Always Under Construction. “She wasn’t mean – she was just blurred, in her own world, she would forget to buy food so I started doing the cooking. My sister and I didn’t like her.”

Linda married her first and only husband, whom she separated with in 1983, photographer Edward Lee Thrasher, when she was 21. They had two children together, and although she enjoyed being a mother, it was her husband who somehow stood in her way of making a career in acting.

Although she was part of many commercials, it took Linda quite some time to finally gather the courage to attend acting classes.
In 1967, Linda was paid $25 to be Anne Bancroft’s body double in the poster for the film The Graduate not knowing that years later, or in 2001 to be exact, she would end up playing Mrs Robinson in the West End State production of The Graduate.

During the 1960s, she got a rejection letter from the Glamour Magazine, but that only made her more determined to succeed. “It was so funny that I kept that letter,” she wrote. “I kept the letter because I realized that we all have rejections, and it was her opinion when I was 20 years old. I could have had it devastate my life. But, I didn’t. This feisty streak came out – ‘Oh, yeah? I’m gonna show you!’ With great love and a lot of humor, I kept that letter. It kicked me from behind, and made me want to go and do something.”

After playing small roles, Linda finaIIy got the one that marked her career, that of Sue Ellen Ewing. She appeared in total of 308 episodes on Dallas and played alongside Larry Hagman and Patrick Duffy.

Speaking of her relationship with Hagman, Linda told CM Chat Live: “He was the bad big brother that I never had. He was always doing something in my mind wrong – he was drinking too much, or whatever, and I would reprimand him, he loved that, he loved to do something just to make me crazy. I’d say ‘Don’t eat that. You don’t need that much sugar, and stop drinking.’”

In fact, when Linda was briefly fired from the show for asking for a higher pay, it was Hagman who demanded she gets back.

For her legendary performance in Dallas, Linda received numerous awards, including two Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress – TeIevision Series Drama, as well as a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress.

Her son, Jeff Thrasher, followed into her footsteps and worked as a director. Sadly, he was diagnosed with leukemia and passed away in 2020. Linda was devastated. She had a hard time coping with the loss. Recently, she paid tribute to Jeff writing: “A celebration of my son Jeff’s life. He was the kindest, funniest, sweetest human being….. he brought the world such love and was loved by everyone! May his journey be a magicaI one.”https://www.instagram.com/p/CICmEWyrPUt/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=675&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fbengalimedia24.com&rp=%2Fheartbreaking-update-on-dallas-actress-linda-grey%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR2dgWz6EFpC6RtaLAWwCBgR-BcaAhAdm0FRg147EhNfvC0WfZ9fCh18Swk#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A1751%2C%22ls%22%3A1148.4000000059605%2C%22le%22%3A1748.4000000059605%7D


We are very sorry for her loss. Linda is doing her best to live her life without her son. She is 82 years old and is looking as stunningly beautiful as always

Not everyone will understand.

Trust is the foundation of any healthy relationship. However, when things start to feel off, it’s easy for doubts to take over. Recently, I found myself questioning my girlfriend’s behavior, and it all centered around her work schedule.

She works at a bank, which typically closes at 4:30 PM. However, she’s been coming home around 9:30 PM every night. At first, I didn’t think much of it—maybe she had extra work. But as days passed, the uneasiness grew. Was she really staying late for work, or was there something more?

I couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right. Could she be lying? Was she seeing someone else? These thoughts kept running through my mind, making me question everything.

Jumping to Conclusions vs. Seeking the Truth

It’s human nature to assume the worst when things don’t add up. I had two choices:

  1. Let paranoia consume me and start making accusations.
  2. Communicate and seek clarity before making assumptions.

I chose the second option. Instead of letting suspicion take over, I decided to analyze the situation logically.

Understanding the Nature of Banking Jobs

One of the first things I did was research bank work schedules. Most banks do close by 4:30 PM, but that doesn’t mean employees leave at that time.

🕒 Here’s why bank employees might stay late:
✔️ Processing daily transactions and balancing accounts.
✔️ Preparing reports for the next business day.
✔️ Handling security checks and audits.
✔️ Attending meetings and training sessions.

It turns out, overtime in the banking sector isn’t uncommon, especially for those in higher positions or involved in finance management.

Could this be why my girlfriend was getting home late? It was a strong possibility.

The Importance of Communication

Instead of silently harboring doubts, I did what any rational partner should do—I talked to her.

🔹 I casually asked, “How was work today?”
🔹 I listened carefully to what she said.
🔹 I paid attention to her body language.

Turns out, she had been staying late to complete extra tasks and wasn’t intentionally hiding anything from me. It was just work—nothing more, nothing less.

That conversation saved me from unnecessary stress, doubt, and potential damage to our relationship.

Trust in a Relationship: A Two-Way Street

Many relationships fail not because of actual betrayal, but due to lack of trust and communication. My situation made me realize that:

❤️ Jumping to conclusions can ruin a good relationship.
❤️ Communication is the only way to resolve doubts.
❤️ Trust is built over time, and small doubts can weaken it.

Imagine if I had accused her of lying without any proof. It could have caused unnecessary fights and resentment.

🔸 Doubts are normal, but how you handle them matters.
🔸 Being insecure and jumping to conclusions only leads to regret.
🔸 Giving your partner the benefit of the doubt strengthens the relationship.

Instead of letting anxiety and overthinking control me, I chose understanding and trust. And guess what? I was wrong to assume the worst.

Final Thoughts: Not Everyone Will Understand

Some people may think, “If you’re doubting her, maybe there’s a reason.” But the truth is, sometimes our own insecurities create problems that don’t exist.

If something in your relationship feels off, don’t jump to accusations—instead, talk about it.

At the end of the day, trust and communication are the real secrets to a strong relationship. Without them, even the best relationships can fall apart.
