Yes, an amazing coincidence considering the fate of his second wife.
Of course on the show usually it wasn’t Kirk that killed them.
Omg. I remember that 911 call. He comes home to the house he lives in with his wife, and finds her in the pool, and calls 911. “My wife! She’s at the bottom of the pool! She’s not moving!” (Paraphrasing)
“Sir, get in there and bring her up!”
“You mean dive in there in my clothes? And get them all wet?”
“Sir, go in and get your wife out of the pool!”
“Just get here as fast as you can!”
“sir! Get into the pool and bring up your wife!”
And by a weird coincidence a few days after his wife’s death, early one weekday morning, we were in a religious store right next to a deli, and my children had to use a restroom, so we went into the deli. There, in the nearly empty deli, was Mr. Shatner, in a baseball cap, canoodling with the brunette that became his next woman, and her hair was a mess, straight from bed. They were cuddling and laughing. This was NOT a man in mourning. It was rather unseemly.
