Top 10 Celebrities You Didn’t Know Were Adopted
9 Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn Monroe was born Norma Jeane Mortenson, June 1, 1926. Gladys Baker was her mother and was financially inept to care for her. She placed Norma Jeane with foster families, with whom she lived until she was 7. Norma Jeane’s mother tried to get her back but she had a nervous breakdown shortly after. Grace McKee, her best friend, was made her legal guardian. This only lasted a few years and Norma Jeane was then sent to Hollygrove Orphanage in Los Angeles, followed by a number of foster homes before she returned to Grace McKee’s house.
Grace and her husband were moving to the East Coast, and Grace couldn’t take Norma Jeane. James Dougherty’s mother suggested that they marry Norma Jeane. They were married just weeks after she turned 16, so she would not have to go back to foster care or an orphanage.
