Ellen Wagstaff Arden (Doris Day), a mother of two young children, was believed to be lost at sea following an airplane accident. Her husband, Nick Arden (James Garner), was one of the survivors.
After years of searching for her, he decides to move on with his life by having her declared legally dead and marrying Bianca (Polly Bergen), all on the same day. However, Ellen is alive; she is rescued and returns home that particular day. At first crestfallen, she is relieved to discover from her mother-in-law Grace (Thelma Ritter) that her (ex-) husband's honeymoon has not started yet.
Nick eventually clears things up with Bianca, but then he learns that Ellen was stranded on an island alone all those years with Stephen Burkett (Chuck Connors) and that they called each other "Adam" and "Eve".
The Tom Hanks film Cast Away has a plot similarity: the lead character is marooned on an island for several years; on his return he finds that his girlfriend has given him up LESS
