Personal Life: Dating, Boyfriends, Husband, Kids

Marcelle Tagand Lear is mostly known for her lengthy marriage to ‘Batman’ actor Adam West, but the two were previously married. Marcelle’s first marriage was to John Lear, the CEO of Learjet. From her marriage to him, she had two daughters, Moya and Jill. John’s family aviation company, coincidentally, facilitated her first encounter with Adam. To be more specific, the production crew required a genuine aircraft to function as a prop for the iconic ‘Bat Jet’ during a marketing event for ‘Batman’ in 1966.

Her first husband, John, was the one who landed a Lear Jet at Santa Monica Airport to act as the prop. Marcelle was in town to witness the filming process and meet the cast. Marcelle Tagand Lear later told ‘People’ that she was first drawn to Adam’s unusual outfit, but that after he removed his mask, his beauty and sense of humour won her over instantly.

Her marriage to John Lear is reported to have suffered as a result of their developing closeness. They soon divorced, and she married Adam West on November 7, 1970. Later, John remarried, this time to Marilee, a Mississippi actress who was also the proprietor of a thriving Las Vegas-based movie casting agency.

Marcelle Tagand Lear and Adam West have two children: Nina West, who was born in 1976, and Perrin, who was born in 1979. Nina, her daughter, is a model, actress, and TV program host who appeared alongside her father on Howard Stern’s radio show and presented ‘TV Land Real Estate’ in 2002.

Adam West was previously married twice: the first time to his undergraduate girlfriend, Billie Lou Yeager, from 1950 to 1956, and the second time to Cook Island dancer Ngatokorua Frisbie Dawson from 1957 to 1962. From his second marriage, he has two children. Marcelle and Adam relocated to Ketchum, Idaho in 1990 to pursue their particular interests and hobbies. She encouraged him to paint in his leisure time, according to a 2006 article published by Whitman College. They had been married for 47 years when he died suddenly on June 9, 2017 after a brief fight with illness.

Marcelle Tagand Lear’s husband Adam West thanked her for helping him overcome his alcoholism in an interview with the ‘Sunday Express.’ From 1966 to 1968, he became famous for his role as the Caped Crusader (batman) on television. In little time, the program had turned him into a “rock star,” shifting the focus away from the somber, gloomy tone of the Batman films to present a more light-hearted and funny figure.

West, who was unmarried at the time after two brief marriages, took up womanizing in the same way that his on-screen counterpart Bruce Wayne did. After the program ended, he recognized how much his career had been impacted by being typecast as Batman, which led to him binge-drinking and making him “extremely unhappy.”
