Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio's relationship is one of the most famous romances of the 1950s. They first met in 1952, when Monroe was rising to stardom and DiMaggio was already a legendary baseball player. Their meeting was set up as a blind date by a mutual friend. Despite their different backgrounds, they were drawn to each other and began dating shortly after.
They got married in January 1954 in a private ceremony at San Francisco City Hall. However, their marriage faced challenges from the start. Monroe's career was rapidly taking off, and the constant attention from the press became overwhelming for DiMaggio. Their relationship was further strained by DiMaggio's jealousy and Monroe's demanding career.
The couple divorced after just nine months of marriage in October 1954. Despite their short-lived marriage, DiMaggio remained devoted to Monroe. He even arranged her funeral after her tragic death in 1962 and had roses delivered to her grave for many years.
