From early on, Monroe’s life was a struggle. From a mentally ill mother to abusive foster homes to living in an orphanage to switching schools nine times, she did not have it easy as a young girl.
When she was only 16, she got married for the first time to a neighbor of one of her foster families. He was a WWII soldier named James Dougherty and the marriage resulted in a divorce four years later.

Yes, Monroe had lived with Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller, two of her ex-husbands, but this L.A. home was the first one she purchased alone, without a husband. The 1929 hacienda-style house hides behind towering gates within a peaceful cul de sac and boasts over half an acre full of trees.
Aside from four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the home also has a pool, a citrus grove, and a vast yard. The actress considered the “casa” to be her own little fortress where she can hide out.
