Helen Thomas was once married...to Frank Cormier, AP White House
Correspondent.
She married him while they were both covering the Nixon Administration. In fact, Pat Nixon playfully scooped Helen and announced to the world that the two were planning to wed. I guess she thought it cute that UPI and AP were getting married. Anyway, not long thereafter Cormier retired and then it became known that he had what we know now as Alzheimers. He died about a decade later.
Draw your own conclusions as to how the man might have wound up married to Helen Thomas. I have drawn mine.
Thanks for that info...I think. :)
