During the shooting of The Seven Year Itch, rumors about a marriage crisis began to intensify . On October 6, 1954, Marilyn, accompanied by her lawyer, Jerry Geisler, appeared before the reporters who had gathered in front of Marilyn and Joe DiMaggio’s house in Beverly Hills. Geisler announced that a suit for divorce had been filed. Marilyn herself was silent, but she sobbed and burst into tears before they all drove away . Geisler remarked: “She had nothing to say except that her application for a divorce is based on a matter of conflicting careers.” A witness described the scene and Marilyn’s appearance as “worthy of an Oscar.” Again, it is Bruno Bernard (right) who captured the climax of the scene in a memorable photo. Picture above is from UPI. One day later Marilyn was back on location for The Seven Year Itch, in pink paj amas, shooting one of the funniest scenes in the movie.
