== Private life == Dolores married Donald Fuller in 1941, with whom she had two children. At the time she met [[Ed Wood]], she was in the process of divorcing her husband (they finally divorced in 1955). She and Wood shared an apartment together for several years. Wood biographer Rudolph Grey quotes Fuller as saying of the period before her success, <blockquote>He [Ed Wood] begged me to marry him. I loved him in a way, but I couldn't handle the transvestism. I'm a very normal person. It's hard for me to deviate! I wanted a man that was all man… After we broke up, he would stand outside my home in Burbank and cry. "Let me in, I love you!" What good would I have done if I had married him? We would have starved together… I bettered myself. I had to uplift myself.<ref>Rudolph Grey (1992) ''Nightmare of Ecstasy: The Life and Art of Edward D. Wood Jr'', Feral House, New York. p. 36-37. {{ISBN|978-0-92291-504-0}}</ref></blockquote> She has also been quoted as saying that "His dressing up didn't bother me—we all have our little queer habits" and giving Wood's drinking as the reason for their breakup.<ref name=telegraph-obit>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/8513025/Dolores-Fuller.html|title=Dolores Fuller|journal=[[The Daily Telegraph]]|date=May 13, 2011|access-date=June 3, 2011|location=London}}</ref> Dolores remarried in 1988 at age 65, to Philip Chamberlin, and they remained married until her death in 2011. Fuller's autobiography, ''A Fuller Life: Hollywood, Ed Wood and Me'', co-authored by Stone Wallace and Philip Chamberlin, was published in 2008.<ref name=telegraph-obit />
