Ron Washington, the manager of the Los Angeles Angels, has been married to his wife, Gerry Washington, for over half a century, i.e., 53 years to be precise.

The former infielder-turned-baseball manager, Ron Washington, and his wife, Gerry Washington, met in 10th grade at John McDonogh High School in New Orleans.

As young adults, they fell in love, began dating in their teenage years, and remained together through college. Over time, their relationship grew nothing but stronger.

Eventually, they decided to commit to each other, and Ron and Gerry exchanged vows on September 16, 1972.

Throughout their long-term marriage, the couple welcomed three children: Ron Washington Jr., Emily Washington, and Robert Washington.

Their son, Ron Jr., followed in his father’s footsteps and became a baseball player, playing in the minor leagues for teams like the Pittsburgh Pirates and New York Mets.

Having said that, their marriage has been nothing short of challenges, including infidelity.
