They both cheated on each other and eventually, MacGraw thought of acting again.<\/p>\n<p>In 1977, she accepted a part in the movie \u201cConvoy\u201d after her agent pleaded with her. However, when she got back home and told McQueen that she was getting back on the screens, he told her, \u201cIn that case, we are filing for divorce.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The couple separated in 1978. Upon their divorce, the prenuptial agreement they signed meant MacGraw was left without even a penny.<\/p>\n<p>After the split, MacGraw opened up about her third marriage, noting that McQueen was very damaged and was a mix of anger, darkness, mystery, and child-like vulnerability. She added that his mood swings were incredible.<\/p>\n<p>However, \u201cThe Winds of War\u201d actress said she was not a victim of MacGraw\u2019s alleged abuse. In her view, she was also at fault because of how sullen and held back she was, including tight, judgmental, and shimmering. The actress said she sought therapy:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe both had work to do, but I know now that you don\u2019t go into therapy to save your marriage; you do it to understand who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/07f9b65ca637508767e7d67fb15d9f3bec5d883f1f1bf0736c18fa81c1183e6e.jpg\" alt=\"Steve McQueen close-up photo filed on March 1966 | Source: Getty Images\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>MacGraw also noted that her big sin when marrying McQueen was to diminish and present herself in an inauthentic manner. She said insecurity made her trim and cover who she really was to make herself desirable:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026because he was the most desirable man on the planet, and I would think, I can\u2019t possibly be desirable enough for this creature\u2014every woman in the restaurant is looking at him!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The hard times also came with sweet and wonderful moments. As per MacGraw, Easter and the Fourth of July were great moments for the couple as they would have potluck dinners with neighbors. These days were real life, peaceful, and incredible.<\/p>\n<p>MacGraw also remembered a dinner for McQueen\u2019s film \u201cThe Towering Inferno,\u201d where the two had extraordinary and unbelievable chemistry. On one of her birthday trips, McQueen, who loved daisies, left hundreds of daisies and white roses in her motel room.<\/p>\n<p>However, McQueen\u2019s paranoia and possessiveness contributed to the end of the pair\u2019s romance. McQueen had a suite in the Beverly Wilshire Hotel where he would go after he fought with the actress. But when MacGraw borrowed an apartment to stay in, McQueen would show up randomly, convinced MacGraw was cheating on him.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back at her marriage, MacGraw said it was stupid for her to stop working at the height of her career without making sure she had a house. The actress did not even own a stick of silver. She confessed she hadn\u2019t made a living at all and that her life as a movie star was terrifying and exhausting:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m much more famous than I am rich, but I\u2019m able to scale back my lifestyle. I know a lot of people who were where I was who can\u2019t imagine living any simpler, but I haven\u2019t got a lot of expensive wants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After her divorce, MacGraw took up more acting roles aside from \u201cConvoy,\u201d including in \u201cPlayers,\u201d \u201cThe Winds of War,\u201d and \u201cJust Tell Me What You Want.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/c95757daa02ed0d4e163e9244e2f4d4128646581eabd4f599c47ba79991b2d0a.jpg\" alt=\"Steve McQueen filming &quot;Papillon&quot; at Montego Bay, Jamaica on April 18, 1973 | Source: Getty Images\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>MacGraw\u2019s life now is fulfilling and happy.
