A Second Chance At Love
After his first divorce, Carson met Joanne Copeland, who he would marry shortly after they began dating. Copeland, a former stewardess and TV host on Video Village, became his second wife. Perhaps he had hoped for a better marriage the second time around, but that would not be the case.
The Doomed Relationship
Carson’s relationship with Copeland would not fare any better than his first marriage. Both Johnny and Joanne strayed from each other, engaging in affairs which would lead to their 1972 divorce. However, Copeland stayed dedicated to him and helped keep his TV legacy preserved.
