Fay Webb (1907 – 18 November 1936) was an American actress who gained recognition through her marriage to singer and bandleader Rudy Vallée. After graduating from Santa Monica High School in 1927, Webb was signed by MGM Studios, where she began taking dramatic and acting courses. After meeting Vallée through mutual friends in 1929, the couple secretly married in July 1931, but by the second year, their relationship showed signs of strain. Despite attempts to reconcile, they officially separated in April 1933 and finalized their divorce in May 1936. During their divorce, both accused each other of infidelity and abusive behavior, although the judge ultimately ruled in Vallée's favor.
Despite their rocky relationship, Vallée had provided financial support to Webb after her mother's death. Webb died in November 1936 at the age of 29 from alcoholism
