We Bet You Didn’t Know Some of These Things about the Life and Career of Don Knotts

Second Marriage

Don Knotts went on to marry Loralee Czuchna in 1974. Their marriage to one another lasted until 1989. Apparently, Don started experiencing deep bouts of depression which is rumored to be one of the reasons their marriage didn’t last. By the time the two splits for good, Don Knotts was in a deep depression already, and it would take him some time to rethink his life and get himself better. It took a good number of years until Knotts would remarry for the third and last time.

Third Time a Charm

Don Knotts married for a third and final time in 2002 when he married Frances Yarborough. The two stayed married until his death in 2006. Frances Yarborough is also an actress who is probably best known for her role in The Electric Chair that was released in 1976. Yarborough wasn’t really well-known for any other performances, but the two clearly cared a lot about each other. After Knott’s death, Yarborough went on air and said that Don “saw poignancy in people's pride and pain and he turned it into something endearing and hilarious.”
