What Was Pegeen Michael Daly's Profession? 

Though Pegeen came from a family of actors, she has always preferred to stay away from the limelight and the gossip rags in her time. She did live a fulfilling life as a socialite. However, she never took part in any kind of acting projects.

Though Pegeen's siblings pursued their careers in acting just like their parents, she never made an effort to enter the industry. Maybe she was all aware of her parent's exhausting life; she never seemed to care about such fame.

Pegeen Michael Daly Married In 1967

Our lovely lady, Pegeen, was married to John Valentine Jr. According to sources, the couple got married in the year 1967. However, both of them were private persons, and their marital life was kept far from the sight of media and cameras.

The marriage was not as glorious as many people expect from celebrity kids. Their marriage ceremony was not announced publicly and celebrated among her loved ones. Though the couple's relationship and banters were kept under the covers, it can be seen that they truly loved one another as they were in the knot till Pegeen's death.

Pegeen's Parents: James Daly Was Gay? 

As mentioned earlier, Pegeen's parents are the theater actor James Daly and actress Hope Newell. But did you know that the famous actor James Daly was gay? 

Well, James' son, the actor Tim Daly, revealed this in an interview on CBS News Sunday Morning. He said that his father came out to him as gay nearly after ten years after his parent's divorce. 

At the time of James, homosexuality wasn't a thing like it is now. It was considered a mental illness, so he was a closet gay. Though he and Hope tried to cure it, they failed miserably. Tim said James' sexual orientation was hindering their family relationships, nearly putting a rift between them. 

Though it's not for sure, it could be the reason for the Daly couple's divorce. After the divorce, he started limiting his contact with his children so they would not end up mentally ill like himself.
