Had one daughter with her third husband William McGarry: Erin Kathleen McGarry (born January 6, 1963 in Los Angeles, California).

Developed a chronic alcohol problem in the early 1960s. In 1969, she attempted suicide by taking an overdose of barbiturates and slashing her wrists. She was later committed to California's Camarillo State Hospital for her alcoholism, but she regressed after her release.

After three seasons playing sexy femme lead Lily Merrill, the dance-hall hostess and romantic interest for steely-eyed Marshal Dan Troop in the TV western series Lawman (1958), she left show business in 1962.

Once named the Ideal Hollywood Secretary by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce after she played a secretary in Miracle in the Rain (1956).

Tall, sultry, green-eyed blonde Peggie Castle was actually spotted by a talent scout while she was lunching in a Beverly Hills restaurant. In her films she was usually somebody's "woman" rather than a girlfriend, and her career was confined to mostly "B"-grade action pictures, dramas or westerns: Harem Girl (1952), Wagons West (1952), The Prince Who Was a Thief (1951), Jesse James' Women (1954), among others.

She did, however, have good roles in such films as Payment on Demand (1951) with Bette Davis, 99 River Street (1953) with John Payne, I, the Jury (1953), The White Orchid (1954), Miracle in the Rain (1956) with Jane Wyman and in Seven Hills of Rome (1957) with Mario Lanza.

Her signing by Universal-International in 1950 was instigated by Universal star Audie Murphy, whom she was seeing at the time. She left Universal in 1954 and freelanced.

In 1949, she was voted "Miss Classy Chassis" by members of the United Automobile Workers Union from seven Western states.
