This iconic Hollywood actress will turn 96 years old on October 25, 2024. Her most well-known role was that of Marion Cunningham in the hit sitcom “Happy Days.” Despite the challenges of her turbulent marriage to Freeman “Effie” Meskimen, she decided that nothing would stop her from accepting life as a single mother.
After nearly 20 years of marital strife, including her husband’s struggles with alcoholism, she ultimately filed for divorce and took on a number of duties to support her two children. At the age of 60, she fell in love once more with actor Paul Michael, with whom she had a deep and affectionate relationship until his passing in 2011.
In recent years, she has embraced retirement, putting her family first and making the most of her life. Her son Jim regularly shares heartwarming photos of her with her on social media, proving how much love and happiness Mom still evokes. Marion Ross is recalled as a cherished individual who was commended for her persistence and friendliness.
