The Marriage of Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio may have had a short-lived union, but their relationship remains one of the most highly publicized in Hollywood.

The two met in 1952 when DiMaggio, who had retired from professional baseball the previous year, asked an acquaintance to introduce him to Monroe, who, at the time, was still a rising star.

The couple embarked on a long-distance relationship, with Monroe on the West Coast while DiMaggio stayed on the East. Though they tried to keep their romance private, it eventually became widely covered by the press.

In January 1954, the two tied the knot in San Francisco City Hall, where they were apparently mobbed by fans and paparazzi.

However strong their connection and marriage was apparently doomed from the start due to DiMaggio’s jealousy and controlling attitude and Monroe’s frantic filming schedule.

In October 1954, after returning back to Los Angeles after filming in New York City, Monroe filed for divorce from DiMaggio citing reasons of “mental cruelty.” The two were only married for nine months.
