Locations of Playmate Marriages: There is a saying “marry in haste repent at leisure”. Perhaps “marry in Vegas repent at Reno” is more fitting. Longevity of Playmate Marriages: It is not right to generalize, but for all their fame and fortune has their beauty been the ultimate curse to their marriages? Living life in the spotlight has meant a higher statistic of divorces for Playmate marriages. They also appear to choose men with careers in the public domain. There is a common theme of attractions to celebrity athletes, actors, musicians and directors in their industry. All of the latter attract higher than average divorce statistics.
