She remembered Paul would play a “big, tough monster” on screen, but deep down, he was truly a “very sweet, very respectful” gentleman.
“Paul was just a universally loved actor, and of course, I adored him every minute,” she said. “I got so lucky that he pursued me like he did. And I’m like, wow, I really have had a wonderful life with this man. The only problem is, it was just too short.”
