Longest Marriage
By all accounts, Doris Day appears to have been happiest during her third marriage. You know what they say – third time’s the charm! Martin Melcher produced quite a number of the movies she starred in and later took in her son as his own. We are sure that their shared faith helped strengthen their union even more, though it did have its own set of drawbacks like refusing to see a doctor. It was certainly lucky that Doris’ tumor turned out to be benign. Unfortunately, everything ended with Melcher’s death in the year 1968.

Facing Bankruptcy
At the time of Martin Melcher’s death, it was revealed that he spent all the money in Doris’ savings account. This happened in 1968. Doris Day took legal action against her lawyer Rosenthal who appeared to have squandered her wealth together with her late husband. She won though it took a long time before she received the settlement money.
