Dean Martin hinted at a romantic history with Cary Grant to his maid.

Evidence

Once I came in while he was watching a Cary Grant movie. When I commented on how much I loved Cary, his eyes got misty and he told me that he and Cary had been really close friends. He repeated more than once that Cary was a real gentleman. I thought, wasn’t that code for queer? And then he went on about how much he missed him. It led me to wonder if Dean was trying to come out to me. — Dolores DeLuce, Blow Jobs, 121
