Candice Bergen And Her Husband Shared 25 Years Of Marriage
Candice shares a daughter with her first husband, Louis Malle. He died in 1995 after a battle with cancer. Candice Bergen married her second husband in September 2000, and they shared a happy life. His obituary captures his spirit.
“Marshall was a profoundly good man,” it reads. “Friends and colleagues looked to him as a mentor, and he consistently modeled a life worth emulating. His effortless gravitas paired with his quick humor and genuine respect for all individuals made him a gifted and compelling leader. A dedicated father and grandfather, Marshall had high expectations for those around him. As a doting dog father to his beloved Goldendoodle, Jerry, he instilled similarly high expectations.”
Candice Bergen and her husband weren’t much for social media, but a fan commented condolences on an older picture she posted of Marshall a few years back on Instagram.
They wrote, “You have my condolences as a family, and this be the death of a great man, so may his eternal life be joyful always, Amen.”
Candice Bergen’s husband loved books, reading, and knowledge. His family hopes to continue that legacy after his death.
“In lieu of flowers, we would appreciate a donation to the New York Public Library, an institution he loved so dearly. Any gifts given in his honor (nypl.org/memorial) will be earmarked for adult literacy programs at branches across the five boroughs.”
