That year, she also played the title role of Marian Ames in the Perry Mason episode "The Case of the Wayward Wife".

In 1962, Rhue married actor Tony Young and acted with him in the western He Rides Tall. They divorced in 1970.
In 1977, Rhue was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She continued to work, including a role in Days of Our Lives; but by 1985, she needed a wheelchair and was limited to roles that did not require her to walk or stand, such as recurring roles in Murder, She Wrote and Houston Knights. Her illness prevented her from appearing as her Star Trek character Lieutenant Marla McGivers in the film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), and the character ultimately disappeared from the script as Director Nicholas Meyer did not wish to re-cast the part.
