Olivia Osuna
AKA:
Olivia Hussey-Martin, Olivia Hussey-Fuse, Olivia Hussey-Eisley
In drama school since the age of four, and professionally acting at 13, Hussey didn't actually become famous until she was 16 when she was chosen out of 800 girls as Juliet in Franco Zeffirelli's "Romeo and Juliet" in 1968. She followed up with a supporting role in a minor British film.

But although she was such a sensation is both the UK and the US, her marriages and divorces were sticky business. There are conflicting reports about the dates of her marriage to Dino's son, Dean Paul Martin. Either way, they divorced in 1978. She soon married British pop star, Paul Ryan, whom

More she'd been briefly engaged to ten years before. After that divorce, she was married to another singer, Akira Fuse from '80 to '87, and then again in '91, this time to hard rocker David Eisley of the group Dirty White Boy. She has three kids-sons by Martin and Fuse, and a daughter by Eisely.

    Not bad. hide show

    Olivia Hussey has got to be one of the best actresses of the 60's. I have seen the adaption of Romeo & Juliet that she was in when I was 12, and then again for school when we watched the movie for visualization (might be misspelled) of the play written by Shakespeare himself. She is awesome at pretending to be in love with Romeo who was played by Leonard Whiting (I think that's his name). The scene where Juliet commits suicide upon knowing that she is a widow always makes me feel sad inside. May Hussey be remembered as the classic actress that she is.
