(April 12, 1969 - January 28, 1989) (divorced) (4 children) In 1965, Betty met her future husband, Dan Broderick, eldest son in another large Catholic family, in South Bend, Indiana. The couple was married on April 12, 1969, at the Immaculate Conception Church in Eastchester. She returned from her honeymoon pregnant with her first child, daughter Kim. She gave birth to four more children: a daughter named Lee, two sons named Daniel and Rhett, and an unnamed boy who died two days after birth. After Kim's birth, and after completing his medical degree, Dan announced he intended to combine it with a law degree. He enrolled at Harvard Law School. Having degrees in both medicine and law, Dan had no difficulty finding work. In the early 1980s, Dan hired Linda Kolkena, a former flight attendant who had become a receptionist, as his assistant. Betty suspected an affair, and eventually Dan moved out, bought a house of his own, and took custody of his children. Then followed a lengthy divorce. Broderick vs. Broderick became one of the more famous divorce cases in the United States. The long drawn-out Broderick divorce was finalized in 1989, four years after Dan filed for it. Judge William Howatt accepted all of Dan's proposed numbers and ruled that Betty owed Dan $750,000 in Epstein reimbursements (debts incurred during the marriage) and cash advances. In the end, Dan Broderick was ordered to pay his wife of almost 20 years less than $30,000 in cash. In addition, Dan was re-awarded custody of the children. On April 22, 1989, ten days after what would have been Dan and Betty's 20th anniversary, Dan and Linda were married. found the kids birthdays on http://www.familytreelegends.com/records
