Jerry Lee Lewis
Goodness, Jerry Lee Lewis certainly had a tumultuous marital history with seven marriages. His most infamous union was with his 13-year-old cousin, Myra Gale Brown, which drew considerable controversy over mistreatment allegations. Tragically, his fourth wife, Jaren Elizabeth Gunn Pate, drowned in a swimming pool.
His fifth marriage to Shawn Stevens ended abruptly after 77 days under mysterious circumstances. He then spent two decades married to Kerrie McCarver from 1984 to 2004. His sixth marriage was to Judith Brown in 2012, ending in divorce in 2014. Jerry Lee Lewis passed away in 2022 at the age of 87, marking the end of an era filled with both musical triumphs and personal trials.
