She also said she will quit the ‘movies. The beautiful Swedish star made the declaration in a deeply emo- tional statement issued to reporters ty her personal representative, Joseph Steele. " Sources close to the actress re- ported she intends to marry Italian' director Roterto Rossellini after her | divorce. Miss Bergman expects to file! her suit in either Italy or Sweden, according to Steele. Steele warned that “to say any- thing about her marriage to Rossel- lini would be presumptuous and extremely premature.” Rossellini, who is directing Miss Bergman’s picture, was not avail- able for comment. i Steele said Miss Bergman prob- | ably will claim incompatibility ir her suit and that “she does not expect her husband to contest the divorce.” H He declared that Miss Bergman will not.seek exclusive custody of her 11-year old daughter, Pia. “That should be worked out satisfactorily later,” he said. For years, Miss Bergman and| Lindstrom had been considered one of Hollywood’s most happily mar- ried couples. Rev., Mrs. Prouty . Back from Vacation Rev.
