Although cute on the outside, Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio’s relationship was full of struggles and incompatibilities on the inside. Marilyn wrote the last couple of chapters of her memoir “My Life”, while she was still married to Joe. She wrote, “I have to be careful in writing about my husband Joe DiMaggio, because he winces easily. Many of the things that seem normal or even desirable to me, are very annoying to him. “

They married in 1954, but their union lasted only nine months due to fundamental differences in personality, lifestyle, and expectations. Joe DiMaggio, a retired baseball icon, valued privacy and traditional family life, while Marilyn Monroe was at the height of her Hollywood career, seeking fame and artistic fulfillment. Joe reportedly struggled with Marilyn’s public image and independence, while Marilyn felt constrained by his controlling tendencies and inability to understand her ambitions. To some, it’s still unclear why she married him. Perhaps, as someone who never got to experience parental love and security, marrying the family-oriented Joe was a solution to heal her childhood trauma.

Their love, however, endured in some ways. joe cared for Marilyn even after their divorce, helped her buy her first home, and arranged her funeral in 1962. His loving memory of the blonde icon lived long after her death. This is why his enduring affection, despite their incompatibility, adds depth to their story. The story that will be retold for generations to come.
