Married Life Of Jill And Brad

In 1999, Jill Diven and Brad Garrett married, a time when Garrett was recovering after battling alcoholism. They swiftly connected and commenced dating, with Jill moving into Garrett's Hollywood Hills home just two months into their relationship. The actor credited his rapid involvement to his fear of loneliness, boosted by his recovery from alcohol use.

Within three months, Jill became pregnant, prompting the couple to decide on marriage, hoping to create the family they both waited for. Their wedding was an intimate affair, but their union lost momentum after four years. Despite the efforts to restore the relationship, the couple eventually divorced in 2007 after seven years of marriage, both realizing their incompatibility.
