Ann-Margret cared for her husband – his death broke her heart

Ann-Margret, a Swedish-American actress and singer, is admired for her timeless beauty, talent, and charm. Known for her roles in classics like Bye Bye Birdie and Viva Las Vegas, she also dated Elvis Presley but found true love with actor Roger Smith. Despite their Hollywood success, their relationship had challenges, including Smith’s battle with myasthenia gravis and Ann-Margret’s struggles with substance abuse and a near-fatal injury in 1972.

Smith managed Ann-Margret’s career and helped her transition away from the “sex kitten” image, guiding her toward more complex roles. Their bond grew stronger over time, with Smith supporting her during her career highs and lows. Though they faced difficulties, including not having children, their marriage remained a source of pride for Ann-Margret.

Roger Smith passed away in 2017, after battling Parkinson’s disease and myasthenia gravis. Ann-Margret cared for him throughout his illness, reflecting on their love as the greatest achievement of her life. Their enduring love was captured in a powerful 1985 photo, symbolizing their strength and elegance together.
