Sarah Jane Mayfield (AKA Jane Wyman) had a pretty idyllic middle-class childhood. She was born in 1917 in St. Joseph, Missouri to a laborer father and office assistant mother. But while things looked good from the outside of her Tudor-style home, her life took an unexpected and dramatic turn when she was just four. Wikipedia
Wyman’s parents unexpectedly disturbed their suburban bliss. Without explanation—or none that we’ll ever know—Wyman’s parents divorced. Just three months later, her father died. Her mother must not have been able to bear the dissolution of her white-picket-fence dream, because she moved to Ohio…and left little Jane behind. Wikipedia
Jane Wyman, now orphaned, moved in with foster parents. Sadly, for Wyman, the old trope of the mean foster family held true. Her new foster parents were the chief detectives in St. Joseph, and they laid down the law. Wyman later said, “I was raised with such strict discipline that it was years before I could reason myself out of the bitterness I br...
Jane Wyman moved to California with her foster mother briefly in 1928 when she was just 11 years old. The City of Stars must have left quite an impression on the little Wyman, because it wasn’t long before she imagined herself up on the big screen. When she moved back to Missouri, she kept those dreams, and then made a drastic decision. Wyman dropp...

There was just one problem. She was too young. So, Wyman lied about her age and worked as a manicurist and switchboard operator. She fooled everyone—but it was about to ge...
Wyman might have been having a hard time finding work in Hollywood, but her luck was better in other areas of her life. About one year after her arrival in California, Wyman found love. In 1933, the Wyman tied the knot to the first of four husbands, Ernest Wyman. There was just one wrinkle. She was hiding a big secret from her new hubby. Shuttersto...
As far Wyman’s marriage certificate—and her husband—was concerned, she was 19 years old and of great marrying age. In actuality, however, the nuptials weren’t exactly according to the letter of the law. When Wyman said “I do” for the first time, she was actually just barely 16 years old. It’s not clear if Wyman ever told her husband the truth—but i...
Much like her parents’ marriage, Wyman’s marriage to Ernest dissolved without warning. After just two years, Wyman and Ernest decided to take a trip to Splitsville. Details of their divorce are scarce, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it had something to do with Wyman’s big secret. She kicked Ernest to the curb but kept his surname throughout her car...
Things finally started to look up for Wyman in 1937. After appearing in almost 30films—and lying her way into a marriage—she finally got to see her name on the marquee. She received top-billing in Public Wedding. That’s kind of a coincidence because, less than two years after she divorced Ernest, she had her own public wedding. Getty Images
