Frank Sinatra's First Wife Has Passed Away
Nancy Sinatra Sr., who married the crooner when he was still a struggling nobody, has died at the grand old age of 101.
Taking to Twitter to confirm the news, their daughter Nancy wrote: "My mother passed away peacefully tonight at the age of 101. She was a blessing and the light of my life. Godspeed, Momma. Thank you for everything."
Frank met Nancy when he was a teenager and they married in 1939 and went on to have three kids together. They divorced in 1951, but Nancy remained one of Frank's closest friends right up until his death.
My mother passed away peacefully tonight at the age of 101. She was a blessing and the light of my life. Godspeed, Momma. Thank you for everything. ??‘?
