Kenny Rogers’ 4th Marriage Ruined after Birth of Son – from Perfect Marriage to $60M Divorce

Considered one of the best crossover artists and best-selling musicians of all time, Kenny Rogers was a love warrior — even after five marriages, four divorces, including a $60 million one and five children, he was never tired of love.

Kenny Rogers was admittedly obsessed with women, and that was one of the reasons he became a musician in high school — to get the girls. His obsession, however, wasn’t about getting all the women in the room. The man loved to be in love.

In an interview with the Irish Independent in 2006, Rogers explained he loved the high of being in love, caring about someone, and having someone care about you. Perhaps, it explains why the country singer was married five times.

When he left high school, life brought him his first love. They got married, but it only lasted two years. According to Rogers, her mother “didn’t believe in the marriage” and decided to intervene. His second realization was that he also loved being married.

When he split with his first wife, he married again, almost immediately. The second marriage didn’t last long either — after three years, they both felt it wasn’t the “right thing.”

The third time is a charm, and in his third attempt, Kenny Rogers endured a 12-years relationship, and out of it, they had a son. The Award-winning singer and songwriter blamed his tours for tearing his marriage apart.

“Marianne really did deserve the 60 million because she is a great girl and we had a perfect marriage for 15 years.”

The couple was married for almost 16 years and lived a happy union during this time. In 2020, when Rogers passed away, Marianne shared with Closer Weekly that her late husband was a very attentive and loving man.

WHEN CHILDREN CHANGE EVERYTHING

During their marriage, the actress explained that Rogers had mid-life crises, but despite the situation, it was a pleasure to live with him, as he was always in a good mood.

Rogers’ third wife supported him in many ways, including his career. Marianne would often tour with the country music icon, but she stopped when their son, Christopher, arrived. He revealed that weighed their marriage:

“In fact, everything was fine until our son Christopher was born – but I wouldn’t want him to take any responsibility for this – because that’s when Marianne stopped touring with me and stayed home to take care of him.”

They ended their marriage in 1993. Their son was 12 at the time, and when his dad broke the news,...
