Publish date: 2024-05-22

While Jack Nicholson has had his share of romances, he's only said "I do" to actor Sandra Knight. The star-studded couple got married in 1962 and went on to co-star in "The Terror" a year later, per Closer. So, how did they meet? Well, Jack and Knight have known each other for a long time and were introduced to one other in the early stages of their careers. In a 2010 interview with Alan Mercer, Knight noted, "Actually I met Jack when I was fourteen when my father worked for MGM. I worked for a summer as a messenger girl and he was a messenger boy." Then, they were reunited 5 years later in an acting class and immediately hit it off. "We rehearsed a scene from Tennessee Williams play, "Summer and Smoke," and the fire began," she shared.

A year after tying the knot, Jack and Knight had their daughter, Jennifer Nicholson. Their marriage didn't last too long, as they divorced in 1968. But according to Knight, they remained amicable following their split. In 2016, she told Closer, "The real Jack is a loving, caring, giving person. We had a very beautiful, sweet marriage."
