Yes, he did beat her. Their is no excuse for that. I am glad she divorced him because he went on to better himself. He quit drinking and went to anger management and psychotherapy. If only he had done that before he met her. They might have had a chance.

9:32 "friends told him to move on, forget her. Joe forgot them instead" had me choked a little lmao 😂

She was absolutely gorgeous. I've seen plenty of beautiful people before but I've never seen anyone as beautiful as her.

A quote goes by saying “Her marriages didn’t work out because Joe DiMaggio found out she was Marilyn Monroe, and Arthur Miller found out she wasn’t Marilyn Monroe.” I think Joe was sad over Marilyn wanting to be in the publics eye all the time and yet when she changed and moved to New York she turned back into Norma Jeane and married Authur Miller, and Authur Miller wanted to marry the sex symbol. I don't think she really was understood. Maybe if the world was happy with who she truly was and let her be herself it would of been a whole lot of a different story.

Poor little flower..she really was so beautiful and delicate...So much sadness in her brief life..All she wanted was love and a family..

Marilyn just lights up any room she walks in..magnificent beauty.

Its no exaggeration to say Marilyn Monroe was and is one of the most popular women in the world. Certainly one of the worlds most loved Americans. Because she passed away relatively young her wonderful feminine beauty is immortalised forever.

He was the only one standing up for her at the end no matter what they're problems were

These men married Marilyn, instead got Norma Jean...

He was a jerk and I didn’t like the way he treated his son, it was her that always kept in touch and sent Junior gifts and letters .

I married a beautiful woman and destroyed our marriage also. It's only later in life i realised it was me.

Is nobody going to speak about how he beat her? I mean sure he loved her but I'm glad she left him because she didn't deserve to be beaten...

I don't think she needed a controlling, jealous, abusive man for a husband.

Jo Di Maggio was the only man who truly loved Marilyn for who she was.

I just love Marilyn's wavy big hair and lovely smile. RIP Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn had such a tragic life. She used and abused by so many people. Joe may have recognized how much Marilyn was hurting and tried to take care of her. He wasn't perfect and made some mistakes but he always loved Marilyn. . Sad for both of them.

I do believe he was the only man that truly loved her but he was a jerk.

I wish I was old enough to have seen these two icons, but then I'd be around 90 by now....

He was the only man who truly loved her. He buried her with dignity; and he never said or wrote a word about her. He didn’t destroy their marriage; she wanted fame and adulation and he wanted a wife in the old-fashioned Italian way. Never stood a chance. Let them both RIP.

I adore her I hope she's at peace now.

She s like a child who suddenly wakes up in an adult sexy body, gets th attention she longed for...that s amazing for a while...but..

If he hadn't had an anger problem and had been able to restrain himself from abusing her, they may have had a chance. He was a big guy too. He did a lot of damage.

I really enjoy hearing Joe's friends, never saw this Doc before! I read Joe was always dating Marilyn tribute artist and lookalikes. It is sad, he was so in love with her. I think he never got over her. I love it when he told the mental place "Get her out of here or I will take this place apart piece by piece"!

Joe Dimaggio was probably the only man who loved Marilyn genuinely and truly. All other men used her and looked at her as a sexy famous woman. Marilyn was the ultimate beauty (inner and outer beauty) but she was not wife material. She was emotionally unstable due to her sad childhood and love deprivation.

I am so sad it didn't work out between Joe and Marilyn, he truly loved her. She said in an interview he understood somethings about her and she him but not everything. For Joe never to remarry says so much about his devotion to MM. One thing I really love about MM is she never let a man abuse she was gone if it happened.. and she made her own way in life made her own money took care of herself. I so admire that about her.💖

Joe Dimaggio came to our Beauty Salon after Marilyn died. i still remember.

Although their marriage ended due to mental cruelty.....I believe Joe truly loved her, he was broken hearted when she died and he sent flowers to her grave twice a week for 20 years

I also think that Marilyn Monroe was doomed from the time she was very young..Very sad...She was so beautiful and talented too:( Thanks for the video:)

They were both insecure in their own way. :(

My assessment of Joe DiMaggio is that he was obsessed with Marilyn,not in love. There was even an alleged stalking incident after their marriage ended.He didn't like that Marilyn was seeing another man so he tried to break down her door but it turned out to be the wrong place.Hes lucky he didn't get arrested. Also one example of his abuse of Marilyn : he grabbed her by the hair and dragged her back when she tried to get away from him during a fight . He showed classic signs of a domestic abuser- sending flowers and being lovey dovey after a violent encounter

So very sad. I think we'll never know the truth about JD and MM's private life but if the stories of abuse are true then Marilyn was right to divorce him and they should never have been re-married. How can you ever trust or be truly comfortable with the person who was obsessed with you and didn't trust you and who hit you? You can't.

If I feel pain and have tears in my eyes watching this, I can't even begin to imagine what Joe felt when Marilyn was killed and during the 37 years that followed.

I think if she could speak, she’d say Don’t cry for me!! I’m happy! I’m among the brightest stars in the universe! Where I’m meant to be!!” She was so beautiful! ❤️😃👌🌺🌸😘

My uncle was a close friend and next door neighbor to Joe. He truly loved her and made amends and took seriously becoming a better person with the therapy and giving up drinking. He stood with her in the last tumultuous days when many had abandoned her and she trusted and loved him to the end even if they did not remarry.

i dont think she knew who she was but she knew what people wanted her to be

Poor Marilyn beautiful yet so lonely and depressed sad gone too soon

This can become a great movie

Interviews of photographers about Marilyn, are so very interesting and tend to paint her in a very good way. George Barris stated that Marilyn did not hate her husbands, she loved them, but they just did not understand her. This seems to be true, but I wasn't there'. Joe does deserve serious credit for being at her side when she had great need, even if he did hit her in the past, which is truly Wrong. Yet it reveals a lot about him toward her. I sense that if he had been way more supportive for her in their marriage, it would have been far greater for both of them. If only that had truly worked out for them. Maybe then she would not have got mixed up with the Kennedys' later on, and lived a far longer life and made more films that I have no doubt we would have loved.

He thought he married Momma Leone. Really thought she was going to make pasta on Sunday. She was bigger than him and his ego couldn't take it. She was so so beautiful. Such a shame in those days when you had to put this act on when you were divorcing so people didn't think you were bad.

He was infatuated, not in love. He expected her to change after getting married, and that is a mistake many people do, you marry who you meet before signing the papers. He was in love with the idea of her, not with the true essence of the woman.

They were planning to remarry. He really did love her. He and his son were heartbroken at her funeral. He sent flowers on the anniversary for 20 years. Nobody else did. Even those who made money out of her which he didn't. If only she had stayed with him.... He couldn't save her from herself....

My kids dad and i had a similar relationship. He was horribly jealous. I wasnt famous like marilyn but he acted like joe. Just wanted me to be locked away pretty much. Hated if i ever got any attention. Verbally abused me. It got physical sometimes. I got thrown against a wall once. He was always there if i needed help though. Until i had children with him. Then he stopped helping me. Some men are insanely selfish

It went wrong when he hit her.... daaaaa So stupid for a man to hit a women. Joe had a problem with her popularity. As you said they both had fears but they could not deal with their fears. Times were different then Ex Marilyn believed she deserved a beating as it was OK for men do so then. We have come a long ways! So sad ... They were soul mates.

I love Marilyn and Jane Russell terrific chemistry and they were really good friends through it all. A genuine friend

If you read up plus watch some of the interviews with Joe DiMaggio's first wife, Joe was emotionally abusive, very controlling with his first wife.. He even beat Marilyn up twice that she spoke of, people suspected that there were more incidents. Marilyn had worked too hard to get where she was, Joe wanted her to give up the career she had worked to build. He wanted her to stay at home with him, make spaghetti & meatballs, have babies. She had a career! lol. He truly loved her, he just had too many issues that no woman should have to tolerate. The only time one person should try to change another is when one of them is a baby with a dirty nappie & the other is the mum or dad.

Heartbreaking, just heartbreaking. I hope they are together now...lessons learned.

Isn’t it so great that everyone knows exactly how she felt… she was sad she was lonely she was depressed she was just a sad girl… No she was a woman

DiMaggio was the Best Husband she ever had. He Loved her, although he had insecurities, made mistakes, but he Truly adored her and had her back no matter what.

Marilyn Monroe And Joe Dimaggio - Love, Marriage, Divorce Documentary segment

"I'll always remember my 🍯 honeymoon in Korea with the 45th division." 😁 🤭 Marilyn Monroe 💖

Magnifique....MERCIIi pour ces images d archive si précieuses.... Elle est heureuse.... Admiration et Souvenirs

Thanks for posting

You just cannot completely mold a person into what you want. Marilyn was NOT going to stay home and bake bread and rock baby. However, it probably would have been the best for the beautiful, loved by most of us actress. RIP, Marilyn in heaven

Marilyn had such great people around her. From Jane Russel to Jo Domaggio. She was just in the wrong place and the wrong time :(

Out of all this is by far the best one I’ve ever seen❤❤❤❤❤

Lots of 💘!!! Thank you 😊 LUV mm

How surprising marilyn was broken and sad from inside still managed to give that beautiful smile...!!

Her beauty and sensuality ate her up

Oh My Goodness!!! BREATHTAKING!

She was my idol, just Loved her innocence, And her brave face, so beautiful 💗💯

Which documentary is this taken from?thanks for sharing..God bless them both💕

Marilyn was not a girl, she was a woman, the industry treated her as an orphan girl when she was not, she had a father and knew him (Martin Edward Mortensen) also a mother, two brothers, etc, etc. Hollywood needed her alone, orphaned, defenseless and stupid when in reality it was the opposite. Marilyn was not a woman to marry anyone, she was a woman who prioritized her career and her pleasures that included parties, unconventional get-togethers, and lots of men in her bedroom. She wasn't ready for a husband, ironing shirts and raising children, so she told Joe with facts ... Joe was the only man who really loved her, the rest was lust and spending moments with the sex symbol that Hollywood has created and that would be immortalized when he died in full swing.

DiMaggio beat up on someone who had already lived a tragic life filled with sexual abuse when she was a child. I cannot imagine how hurt she was at the way he treated her. The roses on her grave didn’t do Marilyn Monroe any good.

Wow, this was a really sad Love story for MM &JD ...but no marriage is perfect. He should of trust her. I wish someone should been there for her when she was going thought those hard stuff alone! She was so beautiful 💖Love MM!

It was hard for Marilyn to love anyone she couldn’t love herself or let anyone love her, she was a lost soul,😔

The only thing I personally know about Norma Jeane/ Marilyn Monroe came from books, KZfaq, and internet. All I can factually say is she was beautiful, a great actress, and she sang well. The rest is my speculations after reading about her. I believe she was a truly wonderful but lonely hurt person. I am happy for her she was able to do something in life that she loved, at least at one point in her life. That was to be on the big screen. I am so sorry her life became so difficult for her in Hollywood. I feel she was the most exploited female actress of her time and shame upon all those who did that to her. I have read many nice compliments to her by other female actresses of that era. Whoever ended her life was a horrible person. Yes, I believe she was murdered.

Great video

OMG people saying Dimaggio was made for her NOT. The last thing she needed was an abusive macho jealous hound.

That's why you should trust a woman who chose you among those millions guys who dreamed of her and married you. This is based on my never I did experience things.

Fantastic!

Joe loved her. She had her highs and lows but in the end Joe DiMaggio was the one who was there.

I feel very sorry for both Marilyn and Joe, dont blame me😭

I heard many years ago that Di Maggio wasn't a very bright person and that the Paul Simon song Mrs Robinson had to be explained to him, that the lyric mentioning his name as a tribute to him,and not something dishonorable as he assumed. As for Marilyn or any other person who starts life out with so many disadvantages, it's nearly impossible to help such a damaged individual.

she was such a light. so beautiful too inside and out ):

Sometimes what they say in the Horoscopes are true Marilyn -Gemini Joe- Sagitarrius A match made in heaven but once a Gemini is done..It's Done. Out of all the zodiac signs, The Gemini is the biggest and hardest heartbreak of Sagittarius in their life.. Sad but true..

13:51 if he had behaved differently they would of had a good marriage he destroyed it and he felt that guilt

I wonder if joe was her light . He really loved her and I think had she chosen her marriage over her career maybe she would have lived longer, happier and maybe had those children she so desperately wanted. He deff had the love she carved.

MGBY Marilyn Monroe & Joe DiMaggio.❤️❤️ One of My Biggest Wishes is that you are now in Bliss together. 😇😇

Great narration Ice-T.

Everyone is a Marilyn expert 😂 Stop talking if you don’t have 100% of the facts.

I believe joe was the only man that really loved her😢

Marilyn Monroe was truly Gorgeous, Amazingly Beautiful, Amazingly GORGEOUS indeed.

The only person Joe truly loved. He still loved himself more though...

There are several errors in the facts stated here. Marilyn was put on uppers and downers by her team early in her career, it was a common tactic in Hollywood in that era and the horrible side effects and addictive properties were either unknown or simply disregarded by the studios. Look at Judy Garland, she suffered from the same dependency and for the same reason: they wanted these women to “crank it out”, as Marilyn herself put it. The Hollywood machine didn’t care that these women would suffer as a result. So when the narrator said she was turning to those things, it wasn’t something she chose. By that point, it was an addiction to substances that kept her working, only she couldn’t ever sleep, and the insomnia combined with the drugs threw her into a horrible spiral. There was little evidence that she was a heavy drinker, but she did drink champagne. Point is, even some alcohol will be overwhelming if combined with those meds. Secondly, she was far from hopeless at the end of her life. She was on an upward swing and was making plans for the future. That’s not the behavior of a suicidal person. Even the coroner deemed it a “probable suicide,” which is an absurd combination of words & gives no certainty. Yes, Fox had fired her from Something’s Got To Give, her last unfinished film, but she was renegotiating with them. The circumstances of her death were incredibly mysterious and confusing, so it’s wrong that this doc makes it sound like she simply spiraled without Joe. Her home in Brentwood was her own, not bought for her by Joe, either.

Nice videos.

That’s weird to get lookalikes of your ex

She was a Angel. He truly loved her.

Wow it’s so interesting how some beautiful people fall in love with ugly people. I always assume or want them to be with other beautiful people. But no one can control who you fall in love with, love is love.❤️

Even in 60 year-old film, she looks like she's in High-Definition.... It's so weird. Lord knows how she seemed to people, in person: like a living angel.

when i'm looking all those old videos, not sure it is due to low res cam, but seem like everyone had great, beautiful, clean and healthy skin.

Women were crazy gorgeous during this time period, I don’t know if it was because of the black and white photos/video or the lack of plastic surgery. It would be nice if people were still this attractive without all this Botox, etc. People are looking like robots now with wide disproportionate hips.

This breakes my heart.

He wasn't a gentleman. Many muscles, not much brains. If you're not supported by your man in regards to goals and aspirations, he doesn't belong in your life. That's the mistake men used to do back then. If a woman has a passion for her job, you support her. Period. She was broken inside, but she was no damsel in distress. She knew what she wanted to accomplish. Is this so hard to understand? Damn those misoginistics who can't stand having a talented and driven woman by their side. The loss is on them. And he certainly lost the game. I agree that he felt super guilty, and realised he screwed up his marriage. I'm sure he lacked communication skills, just as most of sports celebrities. They're quite basic.

She had a really rough Childhood worse than most of us. Father disappeared & Mother had MH issues. She felt along.🙏💗

She was a wild woman. Joe knew that. It drove him nuts too. He tried his best all the way to the end. Disastrous love story.

He was her one true love. 💙❤️

As per usual there’s only ONE ❣️

The only man she could count on was abusive. She never had anyone who was truly in her corner and I can’t imagine that kind of loneliness.

i love them

Her walk. Her voice and her inosence. She was unique
