Stewart Granger claimed in his autobiography that Deborah Kerr had approached him romantically in the back of his chauffeur-driven car at the time he was making Caesar and Cleopatra. Although married to Elspeth March, he states that he and Kerr went on to have an affair. Deborah Kerr disputed this claim, commenting, "He should be so lucky."
In 1956, Granger became a naturalised citizen of the United States.
He died in Santa Monica, California from prostate cancer at the age of 80.
