What Demi Moore’s 3 Marriages Teach Us

Its about more than just love, companionship, sex and money

Demi Moore has had three marriages — to Freddy Moore, Bruce Willis and Ashton Kutcher — and dishes about them in her new memoir Inside Out. If nothing else, she reveals an essential truth — if you don’t know why you’re getting married, the marriage is probably not going to be a healthy one.

So, I’m going to analyze each marriage and offer takeaways (because there most definitely are takeaways)

Marriage №1

She married Moore, a musician, when she was just 17, an age that you don’t necessarily know what you’re doing or why you’re doing it, but you feel it intensely anyway There was trouble even before it began:

“The night before we got married, instead of working on my vows, I was calling a guy I’d met on a movie set. I snuck out of my own bachelorette party and went to his apartment. Why did I do that? Why didn’t I go and see the man I was committing to spend the rest of my life with to express my doubts? Because I couldn’t face the fact that I was getting married to distract myself from grieving the death of my father. Because I felt there was no room to question what I’d already put in motion. I couldn’t get out of the marriage, but I could sabotage it.”
