I just got off the phone with a friend of mine in London.
On page three of the Daily Standard(I believe that was
the paper she mentioned) is a full page spread
announcing that Timothy Dalton and Oksana (sorry missed
last name) were expecting a child due in August.
Best wishes to Miss Oksana and Mr. Dalton.
Children are a magical experience.

Yeah, a black magic experience.

If this is indeed true, it would completely shatter the rumors that have
circulated about him for years.

Come on. I KNOW i'm not the only one who has at least considered the
possibility for a split second that he was gay. Did'nt bother me any though
whether he was gay or not. He was a great, tough Bond.

His only confirmned romantic interest has been Vanessa Redgrave, which
initself probably proves he's not gay. Who'd use her as cover?

And let's face it. He's been EXTRAORDINARILY secret about his private life.
More so than normal for a celebrity.

Broccoli probably didn't believe the rumors or did'nt care. At one time he
spoke to Anthony Hamilton(Mission:Impossible 1990-ABC) about doing 007 and he
was gay. Died of AIDS two years ago.

Yes, 007 beds hundred of women all over the world because he's in denial.

WHAT rumours????

The tabloids in America raised the (homo)sexuality question about Dalton
years ago, hoping for a big Bond headline. Gosh, how could a MAN be
unmarried at his age without being a raging drag queen?

Gee, that brings up a question. What about this Bond fellow anyway? I


mean, he's not married in his late middle age. Well, that settles that
then...

Then of course the tabloids tried to prove their story and discovered
(shock of shocks!) Dalton very happily ensconced with his female companion
just down the road from his parents. Dalton simply (and rightly so) felt
that being James Bond's girlfriend would cause his significant other to
suffer from the media spotlight and the mindless people who hunger for this
kind of effluvia.

It wasn't even a story in the UK and you KNOW how wild British tabloids
are.

Of course there's no law that says a retraction has to be on the same page
as the initial story, so lemmings around the country bought the original
story and never even looked for the retraction between their beloved
psychic ads.

Those Rumours. Hope that covers it.

That's my point as well, it shouldn't matter, but to the general public it
seems to. Besides, Vanessa Redgrave wasn't the only liaison that was
public knowledge. Around London he was famous for his ability to work his
way through actresses and the fact that he dated Broccoli's daughter for a
period during and after LTK, which was widely reported in the media and
with whom he remains friends seems to point in the same direction.

The militant gay community has become famous for their "outings" over the
last twenty years or so, picking actors and actresses in the center of the
public eye and forcing them "out of the closet". Richard Chamberlain for
one tried to stop them and now he's trying to start his career over taking
gay roles. Tom Selleck sued the living hell out of a gay magazine for
incorrectly outing him and won, but where is he now?

Seriously, if there were the possibility of blasting a heterosexual icon
such as James Bond to pieces, which is what some of these groups are all
about, don't you think they'd have gone after him full speed?

Actually, years ago a female psychologist published on that very subject.
She noted Bond's attraction for slightly boyish women (their hairstyles and
Fleming's descriptions of their bottoms) and his serious drinking problems
as signs of his repressed sexuality.

Honestly, the scariest part was finishing the article (I believe in
Cosmopolitan (UK)) and realizing she was absolutely serious.

Anyway, enough of this, let's congratulate Mr. Dalton and his girlfriend on
their new adventure and wish them all the best.

From my friends in London, they report Miss Oksana is a full time
ballet teacher and has taken a few acting roles. She IS NOT
the skater, only shares the skaters first name. Miss Oksana also
accompanied Mr. Dalton to the Broccoli memorial in Dec. 1996.

As far as sexual preferences, just remember, Timothy Dalton is as
private a person as they come. It is his belief (and I concur) that
whom he is dating, living with, etc. is none of the press' concern.
Of course rumours would abound because the British press
simply has nothing better to do than make up stories about people.
Mr. Dalton has on occasion sued the tabloids for wrongful press.
And WON! And then donated his settlement to charity.

Right, just downloaded the article from my friend Maggie
in Southampton, UK. The article was written by Angela Mollard
exclusive to The Daily Express Saturday 15 Feb 1997.

To save space, I will not print the whole article. Just selective
bits. Supposedly, Kim Last will be posting the article in its entirity
at her website. But I do have the article and will email it to anyone
who would care for a copy!

<<his 25 yr. old Ukranian partner, Oksana Grigorieva...

<<the 50 yr. old bachelor is said to be delighted about the
prospect of fatherhood. The baby is due in August.

<<Friends believe it is only a matter of time before the couple marry.

<<Born in the Ukraine, Miss Grigorieva studied at the Kazan
Conservatory, the equivalent of England's RADA, before moving
to Britain 3 years ago....

<<She's an accomplished concert pianist - she'd love to
play Albert Hall, and she teaches ballet.......

<<Fiercely private, (Dalton) refuses to be interviewed about his
good news.....

<<his mother, Dorothy Dalton said: "Of course we are delighted with
the news, Oksana is a lovely girl".


There you go. Hope this answers some of the questions and ends
all of the nasty rumours you people have printed reguarding Mr. Dalton.

Well, I hope someone told Ursula that her ex-husband was gay... You
realize that Dalton was married to Ursula Andress at one time don't
you?

This reminds me of the Sesame Street rumors about Bert and Ernie being
gay. The Childrens' Television Workshop responded with this press
release:

"As far as we can tell, Bert and Ernie are puppets."

Are'nt you thinking of Harry Hamlin? Really, as far as I can tell, he's never
been married.

I should feel ashamed of myself. But i'm not;) Not to change the subject to
drastically, but does anyone else out there feel like 50 is a little old to
be starting a family?

Thanks for the great post Julianne. But I'm worried. Dalton, of all the actors, should be wary of a Russian woman, having
read Fleming thoroughly and knowing the dangers of SMERSH. If he has to sneak her out of a country, I hope he knows the right
wines. :->

Its most definitely preferable to starting a family while one is too
young and/or immature.

At least this one doesn't play the Cello <g>. Of course if she
happens to have a Stradivarius piano...

P.S. Thanks, JMay, for the info.

P.S.S. Yes, I know Stradivarius only made the traditional strings and
not pianos. It's a joke. OK?

Not really. He'll may still be fully independently living with his
wife when the kid graduates both high school/boarding school and
college/university. My mother-in-law turns 70 this April and she
still lives on her own in her own condo and takes care of herself.
She drives, volunteers at the local blood-bank, and takes trips all
over the country all by her lonesome and we don't worry in the least.
I'm sure Dalton can do the same.

Now, if he were 65 or 70, that would be another story...

Nah. Now 75 years old, that would be something. Of course then his parents
would have named him Tony Randall instead of Timothy.
