Harry Belafonte was her love interest in Carmen Jones and she was married to one of the Nicholas Brothers in real life, right?
I dunno.

You're correct. Dandridge and Belafonte were love interests in Carmen Jones, and Dandridge's first husband, and father of her child Harolyn was Harold Nicholas.
I think the author was conveniently forgetting those facts
because DD did have some Caucasian on-screen lovers and off-screen (Otto Preminger, the director, and her loser husband Jack Denison).
