American financier John Molner and journalist Katie Couric took a circuitous route to each other’s hearts.
Before meeting one another, the pair each tied the knot and committed to separate partners. They didn’t meet until much later in life, but once they did, they were inseparable.
Their mutual acquaintance Molly arranged a meeting between them in 2012, and the financier’s simple “hello” was enough to win over Couric. Their relationship blossomed quickly, and on July 28, 2012, they made their first public appearance together at the Ellen Hermanson Breast Cancer Benefit.
Molner gave his lover a diamond ring and proposed to her in East Hampton, New York, within a year. On September 2, 2013, after a joyful “yes,” the couple got engaged.
The engaged couple tied the knot right away. A year later, on June 21, 2014, they tied the knot in Katie’s garden in East Hampton, New York.

The First Family They Raised
Both John and his future wife had been married once before and had children from their past marriages before they finally tied the knot.
Jane Franke, an English professor at Dorcas International Institute in Rhode Island, was John’s wife.He has a daughter, Allie Molner, and a son, Henry Molner, from his marriage to his now-ex-wife.
Couric also had a husband, named Jay Monahan. They tied the knot back in 1989, and since then have welcomed two daughters. Jay’s death from colon cancer in 1998 put a stop to their nine-year marriage.
Both Molner and Couric dated other people after their initial marriages ended.
Molner dated a woman whose name was Jessica Hsu. After initiating a relationship with Couric in 2012, the financier severed things with her on bad terms. He was accused of infidelity by Hsu, who said he had promised to purchase her a house. But Molner justified himself by saying they were too young for each other.
Similarly, in 2006, Couric dated Brooks Perlin, a man 17 years her junior. In December 2011, they decided to end their long relationship.
