A Mixed Romantic Bag
Certainly, Danson’s love life has had just as many challenges as his professional career. When his former marriage fell apart in just five years, in 1977 he quickly married Casey Coates. This would be a tragic union that would lead to a troubled pregnancy with their daughter Kate’s birth. During the labor process, Casey suffered a massive stroke, which put Danson in the position of both carer and virtual single father as he was heroically committed to helping Casey with her rehabilitation while caring for Kate for years.
Faithless
With the stresses of his troubled family life, Ted was pushed into a controversial affair alongside Whoopi Goldberg. This would be one of the leading factors that drove his marriage apart when Coates filed for divorce upon learning of her formerly committed husband’s infidelity. She would end up winning $30 million as the offended party. This would be the worst low point in the actor’s life but a solid life lesson in faithfulness.
