In 1952, she appeared at Scotland's Pitlochry Festival Theatre, in the play "The Witch". One of her fellow players was John Hollis, whom she would marry the following year. They would divorce by the mid-1960s (following the birth of their daughter, future child star Sarah Hollis Andrews) but would appear together again years later on TV in Strike It Rich! (1986) and The Great Kandinsky (1995).
