The late Betty White's "Golden Girls" co-stars might not have been her biggest fans. Joel Thurm, who oversaw the casting of the "Golden Girls" as head of talent for NBC at the time, claimed Rue McClanahan (Blanche Devereaux) and Bea Arthur (Dorothy Zbornak) in particular had issues with White during an appearance on "The Originals" podcast.
White passed away on New Year's Eve in 2021. "The women hated her," Thurm told journalist Andrew Goldman when asked if the cast got along. "Literally Bea Arthur, who I cast in something else later on, just said, ‘Oh, she’s a f--king c--t,’ using that word," Thurm explained.
Betty White apparently didn't get along with her "Golden Girls" co-stars. "Bea Arthur called Betty White a C-word?" Goldman questioned. "Yeah, she called her the C-word.
I mean, I heard that with my own ears," Thurm replied. "And by the way, so did Rue McClanahan. Rue McClanahan said it to me in Joe Allen’s; Bea Arthur on the set of ‘Beggars and Choosers.'" However, Thurm's publicist clarified to Fox News Digital that McClanahan didn't use the c-word to describe White, but instead claimed the actress said that White "could be a b--ch" during an outing at Joe Allen’s.
