Who played the role of Holly Golightly's husband in the 1961 film "Breakfast at Tiffany's"?
In the film, Holly Golightly's husband is Doc Golightly. He is played by Buddy Ebsen. Doc is older than Holly and he will become her abandoned. Initially, he recounts that he first met Holly (then known as Lulamae Barnes) and her brother Fred when they were hungrily "stealing milk and turkey eggs". They'd run away from "some mean, no-account people". Doc will also admit that he married Holly when "she was going on 14".
Doc explains that Holly lived a good life as his wife, never having to do anything. He cared for her very well. Nevertheless, she ran away once she got a bit older, leaving behind Doc, his children, and even her brother Fred. Nobody in Holly's coterie knew that Doc was her husband. Her neighbor Paul Varjak will learn the truth.
