I found this quote from some where...thought I'd share...it isn't all that great about Kate...but at least Spence tells Myrna "I found the woman I want"...even though he was drunk at the time 
"We both happened to be in New York when Benny Thau called from
Hollywood: 'Myrna, we're waiting to start Tracy's picture and he's
there on a bender, holed up at the River House with his male nurse.
See what you can do?' I called; Spence asked, 'Where are you?' and I
told him. I shouldn't have. He was at the door of my St. Regis suite
in no time. Days of drinking had left him belligerent. He made his
usual play for me, bringing his fist down with such emphatic
frustration at one point that he smashed a glass-topped coffee table.
Then he turned defensive. 'You don't have to worry about me anymore,'
he said like a sulky child. 'I've found the woman I want.' As he
outlined the virtues of Katharine Hepburn, I was relieved, but also a
bit disappointed. As selfish as it sounds, I liked having a man like
Spence in the background wanting me. It's rather nice when nothing's
required in return."

Just stumbled upon this interesting board.. Does anyone have any video interviews with KH?? Or maybe transcripts of them? I´ve been especially looking for the full version of the famous Cavett one forever and ever...
