The show, featuring a singing family touring in a psychedelic bus, garnered immense popularity both in the U.S. and the U.K.<\/p>\n<p>Dey\u2019s co-star, David Cassidy, became a teen heartthrob during the show\u2019s run. Interestingly, Dey herself harbored a crush on Cassidy, though they only began dating after the series ended. However, their relationship was short-lived, with Cassidy later citing Dey\u2019s innocence as a reason for the breakup.<\/p>\n<p>This revelation angered Dey, leading to a rift between the former co-stars. She refused to speak to Cassidy and declined to attend cast reunions. Despite this, Dey continued her acting career, earning multiple award nominations and winning a Golden Globe for her role in \u201cLA Law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/superduperior.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/shutterstock_135922469-scaled-2-667x1024-1-jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dey also authored a book titled \u201cSusan Dey\u2019s Secrets on Boys, Beauty and Popularity.\u201d Interestingly, she turned down the role of Sandy in \u201cGrease,\u201d while Olivia Newton John, who was offered the role of Laurie in \u201cThe Partridge Family,\u201d was advised by her manager to decline.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Dey enjoys a quiet life with her family in New York, away from the spotlight. However, her role in \u201cThe Partridge Family\u201d continues to be remembered fondly, making her a cherished part of many people\u2019s childhood memories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Susan Dey rose to fame as Laurie Partridge in the 1970s hit TV series \u201cThe Partridge Family,\u201d despite lacking acting experience.
