Charles Bronson and his wife, English actress, Jill Ireland, 1971 in Santa Monica, California
Charles Bronson is easily one of the most manly men who ever graced the silver screen. People talk about Chuck Norris, but the real heads know that it’s Charles Bronson who sits at the head of the tough guy table.
As tough as he was, Bronson was also a total sweetheart. After he married English bombshell Jill Ireland he made sure that she was at his side on as many of his films as possible. After the duo started having kids he continued bringing his family everywhere with him, often piling them in an RV and driving to the film location.
While Bronson wasn’t a man of many words, he clearly loved Ireland which is something that feels so refreshing in this day and age. Sadly, Ireland passed away from breast cancer in 1990 at the home she and Bronson shared in Malibu.

That model with the Volvo P1800 station wagon is Marilyn Cole with one of her rewards for being selected Playboy Playmate of the Year 1973. Both are beautiful, and not at all “smooshed up”!
