Personal Life
In 1958, Paget was married for four months to actor and singer David Street; the marriage was annulled. In 1960, she married Budd Boetticher, a prominent director. They separated after just 22 days, and their divorce became official in 1961. (In his later years, Boetticher ascribed the failure of this marriage to the daunting difficulties he encountered when he went to Mexico to make a film about the life of his friend, legendary bullfighter Carlos Arruza.)
Paget left the entertainment industry in 1964 after marrying Louis C. Kung, a Chinese-American nephew of Madame Chiang Kai-Shek, who was an oil industry executive. This third marriage produced a son, Gregory, but ended in divorce in 1980.
