Celebrities Question 3
The Debonair Mr Grant - Cary Grant was born Archibald Leach in England in 1904. His childhood was an unhappy one. As a result he literally ran away from home at 14 to join the circus - or more accurately - an acrobatic troupe. Why was his childhood so unhappy?
 All of these
 His mother was committed to a mental institution when he was not yet ten.
 His father was an alcoholic.
 His father was a philanderer.
The correct answer is 'All of these'
As a young boy, Archie had to live with the fact that his mother continued to grieve for her first son, who died five years before he was born. Her depression eventually led to her being placed in a mental institution. Archie was not told why she went away.



His father did not endear himself to his young son. His heavy drinking and extramarital affairs made life in the Leach family home unbearable, and Archie finally left at 14. He apparently forged his father's signature and joined Bob Pender's theatrical troupe, where he acquired juggling, acrobatic and song and dance skills which would stand him in good stead in his as yet undetermined acting career.
