Willard Scott and Paris Keen-Marriage
Willard married his second wife Paris Keen on 1st of April, 2014, after knowing her for more than 30 years. Talk about a romantic and supportive couple.
It became the most talked about marriage of 2014 due to the fact that Will turned 80, one month prior to the ceremony on March 7.
It is always said that age is just a number and Willard and Paris proved that as they decided to tie the knot at such an old age.
Will and Paris first met while working for NBC
The pair first met in 1977 during their time in NBC. Paris worked as the NBC's Washington Affiliate and it was then, the couple glanced each other for the first time.
At that time Willard was with his first wife Mary Dwyer Scott, whom he married in 1959. He shares two daughters with her named Sally Scott and Mary Scott.
He met his first wife in 1957 while she used to work for NBC. Everything was going well in their lives until the sad passing of Mary in 2002.
The shock was too great for Will but he overcame all the excruciating pain. Soon after his wife's death he started dating Paris and married her in 2014.
Willard Retirement after 65 years
Willard started his reporting career at NBC news in 1950 as a small time reporter. He started reporting for the NBC at a small age 16.
These days people do not believe in dedicating their whole life to one company. It's rare to find someone as hard working and as dedicated as he is and that too for only one company in his entire life.
He gave his whole life to the NBC network.
His random skits, his jolly nature and his sense of humor made everyone laugh. After his retirement in 2015, many people became sad.
