Wife

Throughout the life of the king, he has been married twice.

In his 2021 autobiography, All In, King addressed the wedding for the first time, revealing that only three people already knew.

“No one threw rice or broke a wedding cake in another’s face,” wrote the king.

“One of the brides wore jeans and a cute red scarf and the other had a black shirt, a casual warmup suit, and pearls—ha!—a personal touch of glamor that Ilana still teases me about.”

In an interview with PEOPLE, he then talked about why it took him 42 years.

“I felt very married to Ilana, whether I had a piece of paper or not,” King told People in August 2021.

She later wrote in her book: “Years from now, I never want anyone to question how committed I am to you.”

King also revealed that he had not publicly acknowledged his sexuality until the age of 51.
