Yes that's true, and in a much shorter time as well.

Paul - 2007
Liam - 2008
Tony - 2010
Frank - 2012

Wife 3 - Deirdre Hunt (mother of Tracy). First marriage ended in Divorce and their second marriage ended when Deirdre died of natural causes.

Ken also briefly worked as an escort and one of his clients died during dinner.

So while marrying Gail means it's very likely that you will die, marrying Ken seems to guarantee it.”

Strange that nobody ever remembers Janet Reid.

It's always Val and of course Deirdre that people remember.

In fairness to Ken at least he managed to stay married to his wives for more than 18 months. Gail's last three marriages resulted in death not long after the wedding, with Joe being the shortest marriage as it lasted only a month.
