He Couldn’t Stay Away From Women
Even though Johnny Carson was married, that did not stop him from having romantic interactions with women other than his wife. While he was mid-divorce from Joanne, he had an affair with a model named Angel Tompkins. His lawyer told him bluntly that if he got caught cheating he would likely forfeit his divorce settlement, but he didn’t care. Despite unfaithfulness ruining his second marriage, that didn’t make Johnny change his ways. His third wife, Joanna, was also a victim of his wandering eyes. He tried to make up for it by buying her lavish gifts left and right, including a Rolls-Royce and a beautiful apartment, but eventually, their marriage also came to an end due to his actions. So, who did Johnny blame for his failed marriages?
He Couldn’t Stay Away From Women
Like Mother, Like Son
While everyone has issues and stresses in their life, Johnny seemed to have more issues than anyone else. It almost seemed as though he had problems in every area of his life: family, love life, relationships with friends, everything. He only had one person to blame for facing so many stressful problems in his life. That person was someone who he described as being “cold and heartless.” Johnny Carson blamed his mother, Ruth, for all of his life problems. He never had anything pleasant to say about the woman who brought him into this world. He blamed her for all four of his failed marriages and said that she messed with his life. He hated her so much that he didn’t even attend her funeral, and said, “The wicked witch is dead” when he found out. If he spoke this way toward his mother, just wait to hear how he spoke about his enemies.
