This actress was A-list for only a short period of time, then as soon as her popularity started to wane she left Hollywood for good. Partly because she got married, partly because the talkies were causing her endless stress, partly because of something else she was unaware of. Our star didn’t know that from birth she suffered from a mild form of epilepsy, which was only discovered after she passed away. They didn’t have accessible medication for epilepsy in those days, so she coped with alcohol to control her erratic behavior. Eventually, she had several nervous breakdowns and the first of several heart attacks due to these seizures and was briefly confined to a mental hospital after several suicide attempts. Very sad
