LOU ELLA Pfl^yS in hoTryvTbod ^ I louella parsons' GOOD NEWS Audrey Hepburn looked pale, but very lovely, all in white, when she and Mel Ferrer were married in a beautiful Swiss chapel with just a few friends and some Swiss villagers present. AUDREY HEPBURN and Mel Ferrer were married in Buergenstock, Switzerland. The chapel where the wedding took place is located high on a mountain, only accessible by cable car across the lake irom Geneva. In this secluded spot they spent the first day of their honeymoon in a hotel owned by a friend. I received a wire from them and had the first story printed about their marriage, which some people thought would never take place. Audrey has been rumored in love many times. James Hansen, the young British industrialist, followed her to Hollywood from London and she was engaged to marry him. The supposed Gregory Peck romance never was anything but a friendship. They became friends in Rome while Audrey was making Roman Holiday opposite Greg. She never loved anyone but Mel. His influence over Audrey when she was playing opposite him in Ondine on Broadway was the subject of much -criticism but I personally know he realized her health is not robust and felt she needed as much rest and protection as possible. This is the real reason he made it difficult for some reporters to reach her. I was very pleased to receive their cablegram telling me of their intention to wed, which gave me a scoop. Audrey is considered the finest young actress in many a year. You have to be good to win an Oscar and this she did with Roman Holiday. Then within a week she also won the Antoinette Perry Award for her stage performance in Ondine. Mel is a fine actor, producer and director. So it's two great talents united. THE CHUMMIEST PALS in town are Alan Lddd and his about-to-be son-in-law, Richard Andersen, who play golf, tennis and go horseback riding together every spare minute they can find. Fact is, good-looking Dick has made such a hit with his future in-laws that Alan says, "If Carol Lee doesn't marry Dick, Sue and I will." For a wedding gift the senior Ladds have presented the couple with a beautiful lot adjoining their own home in exclusive Holmby Hills. 10
