Della Street is Perry Mason 's ever-loyal confidential legal secretary. She's all business when the situation calls for it. At less critical times, she engages in semi-needling and occasionally slightly flirtatious conversations with both her boss and private detective Paul Drake . In the later TV movies, we see that Perry and Della are still close after many years, but they never became a couple (at least, not openly).
In the 1930s Mason movies, there are occasional exchanges between Perry and Della that are considerably more suggestive than anything in the TV series. In the 1936 film version of The Case of the Velvet Claws , Della marries Perry. All later film and TV versions of the Mason stories contradict this.
