During the mid-1920s, she dated Worthy Butts, a well-known Hollywood automobile agent; the pair were charged with "staging an orgy" by neighbors who disliked their antics.[2] She later filed a lawsuit against McGowan and Meteor Productions, alleging that McGowan and Winters had lived together for five years beginning in 1926 but that he had not lived up to his promise to marry her. During the suit, she disclosed that McGowan had paid her $60 a week to write scenarios he'd direct, and that he failed to pay her.[3]
