Help[Games] Re: Old Hollywood Insp. CAF (Part 3)
in reply to a message by Antique_Cherub
In 1951, Fay Forester celebrated her fortieth birthday in Provence, where she had recently renovated a Chateau. She was born a day before Christmas, and wore a beautiful red Dior dress and holly in her hair. The Chateau had four real trees and presents for everyone, including her beloved greyhounds (Zeus and Europa). Fay’s gift to herself was a new car, A silver Mercedes Benz.
Taking a short break from acting, Fay spent her years between France, England, and Italy. On a rainy day in London, she met a striking young woman in gorgeous Chanel ensemble, giggling without a care in the world that she was being soaked through. They ducked into a quiet café and shared cups and cups of tea, and their life stories. Léone was an up-and-coming singer, known for her soulful rendition of “We’ll Meet Again”. She was Senegalese-French, her father having fought for France during WWI in the Senegalese Tirailleurs; her mother was a seamstress from Hauts-de-France who had moved to Paris to work for a reputable modiste. Léone had never before felt such love for a person, besides her children, and eventually realized her feelings were reciprocated. Fay and Léone were well-known amongst “The Sewing Circle”, a group of Old Hollywood actresses who were openly (as openly as one could be at that time) Lesbian and Bisexual. Among them were such greats as Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich (who had long been rumored to have been more than just friends with Fay), Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford, and Katharine Hepburn.
Léone would go on to move in with Fay at the chateau in 1953, were they would host lavish parties, filled with champagne and smoke, and the keenest minds of the time-period. No evening would be complete without Fay accompanying Léone on the piano as she sung her latest hits. Eventually, Fay would even adopt five-year-old twin girls, which was quite unusual for the time, and though it couldn’t be said legally, it was known that they raised them together. They were together for six years, until Léone would lose her beloved father to a long battle with cancer. She needed time alone and moved to London to record a new album. Fay was heartbroken by her decision but didn’t let it get in the way of supporting her long-time love and their children.

She married her sous-chef and they had four amazing children, who have inherited their parents’ love of food.
