Through her 3 marriages, she only had children – 2 daughters with her last husband.
Jacklyn is a renowned actress who was active in the entertainment industry from 1974 to 2023. Her over 4 decades of playing Barbara ‘Bobbie’ Spencer on the ABC soap opera, General Hospital, landed her worldwide fame. From the daytime series, she got roles in other series and movies and even has multiple Daytime Emmy Awards nominations.
News of the actress’ demise broke the internet on May 10, 2023, after battling with Cancer for a brief period of time.
Jacklyn Zeman’s First Husband was a Popular DJ
Back in 1979, the American actress got married to the popular DJ Murray the K. The couple dated for about 7 years before deciding to get married on September 16, 1979.
Zeman was Murray’s 6 th wife as he was married to 5 other women before her.
Their marriage lasted from then until 1981 when their divorce proceeding was finalized. Before the finalization, it was reported that the one-time happy couple began to have issues in their union.
A few months after the divorce, disc jockey, Murray the K, discovered he had cancer. By February 21, 1982, Murray Kaufman lost the battle to cancer in his home located in California.
Her Second Marriage Lasted for Just 1 Year
A few years after the end of her first marriage, Jacklyn Zeman found love again and so remarried. By 1985, she was legally hooked to Steve Gribbin.
This union was unfortunately unable to stand the test of time as soon after the marriage, they got divorced. The marriage between Zeman and Gribbin lasted for just a year and by 1986, the marriage was over.
Jacklyn Zeman had 2 Daughters with her 3rd Husband
Rumor has it that the 3rd time is always a charm and this was probably what the one-time Playboy Bunny believed when she went down the marital path a third time.
The General Hospital actress found love again after 2 failed marriages. This time, it seemed like she had finally found the one to settle with. Perhaps many others believed so too because this marriage to Glenn Gorden was the longest she ever had.
Glenn Gorden, Jacklyn Zeman’s third husband got married to The Bay actress on valentines Day in 1988. 2 years after her divorce from her second husband, Jacklyn tied the knot again on February 14, 1988.
This marriage to Glenn lasted for 19 years and ended in 2007. After this one, Zeman chose to remain single and focus on her career and home.
