WHY VIVIEN LEIGH REJECTED LOVER IN FRONT OF OLIVIER

Rivals’ showdown ended in laughter

- 

SUPERSTAR Laurence Olivier invited actor Peter Finch to dinner for a tense face-to-face showdown over his affair with Olivier’s wife, Scarlett O’Hara star Vivien Leigh.

But instead of yelling and punching, the confrontation ended up in laughter, reveals author Stephen Galloway in his new book, Truly, Madly.

Olivier and Leigh were Hollywood’s golden couple when they tied the knot in 1940.
