I'm listening to her book right now...very fascinating. I've always loved her on My Three Sons, but I had no idea she was also a singer that came from a famous singing family.
The behind-the-scenes details from Tina Cole’s life are amazing! The reason she never married Don Grady is truly heartbreaking, but it’s wonderful to hear about her successful career and her contributions to TV and film. I’m also glad to hear about her TV sister Dawn Lyn’s health update. 👏
Tina Cole’s story is so intriguing and poignant. It’s really touching to hear why she never married Don Grady, especially given their close relationship on ‘My Three Sons.’ Her experiences with Hollywood legends and her insights into the entertainment industry are fascinating.
Tina Cole’s reflections on her time with Don Grady and her career are both moving and inspiring. It’s incredible to hear about her work with Nat King Cole, Raquel Welch, and others. 👍
It’s sad to learn the reason she and Don Grady didn’t end up together, but it’s clear they shared a special bond. Her experiences with Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, and working with TV icons like Lucille Ball are so interesting.
❤ what a great interview! I so enjoy how you let the guest talk and not interrupt every few seconds like so many interviewers tend to do. I love Tina on my 3 sons, and was to young for Hawaiian Eye, but the name Sunny sure fits her.
❤❤❤Can’t imagine the fun she had in her life and in that family. Family tv entertainment so missing in this day and age but is a wonderful memory - loved My Three Sons & The King Family and Palm Springs Weekend.
Tina is still beautiful, an inspiration to growing old gracefully. She has wonderful stories, I was able to meet Troy Donahue a few years before he passed, so I loved her story about him!!! 👍👍
That was 44 fabulous minutes. Craig Bennett does exemplary interviews. Tina’s showbiz heritage is fascinating. She’s so respectfully honest. Love the Willian Frawley and Troy Donahue stories. Can understand her emotions regarding Don Grady, they had incredible chemistry on screen. Bravo.
Another excellent interview, l love this as Tina Cole is like an old friend. What a showbiz history! Have just ordered her book. Thank you Craig for such exquisite insights and great questions 🙏🌸
My gosh what a real treat this was! Loved Tina's honesty here and what great stories! It was love at first sight when Katie joined the Douglas family, but I can still remember when Tina sang "Downtown" on one episode and I said she should sing more and my mom said honey, her whole family sings! Anyway, Tina looks beautiful as ever and this was just awesome. Thank you Craig, Kelly and Tina! I must have her book! ❤❤❤❤😊
Really lovely interview. Tina looks amazing, great stories, loved her on Hawaiian Eye and then My Three Sons. Craig, you are so right: she’s a starbust of sunshine. Have just ordered her book. Thank you for another superb interview!
Thank you for this. Have been a big Tina Cole fan for years. Have met her at fan conventions and she’s so kind,sweet and funny. Just as you see her here. Great interview as always, thanks Celebrity Drop.
I’m kind of surprised that the subject of the “triplets” didn’t come up. I know there’s been discussions over the years about where they are now, etc. Would have been cool to know if Tina still keeps in contact with them, when the last time she saw them? Also, I had no idea that Dawn Lyn and Leif Garrett are siblings. 🤔🤔. Love Tina. ❤❤
She does sound like a really nice person. I wish though that she would not have brushed off Troy Donahue's repeated advances, even coming into her hotel room and trailer and getting into bed with her, without her consent, as "harmless." There is nothing harmless about that and about not respecting her saying no.
Settle down puff cake. I have no doubt Tina Cole is an adult who could well take care of. Herself. Just because she’s a woman she can stand up for herself and not be prey to the monster.
Tina dodged a bullet with Don Grady. He obviously had issues. Self centered narcissistic behavior - putting Tina on a shelf for when he was ready and how dare she have a life. Yikes
