Emily DiMaggio Talks about Marilyn Monroe

Taken from the amazing PBS interviews website.
Emily DiMaggio was Dom DiMaggio’s wife. She was photographed at dinner with Dom, Joe and Marilyn in early 1955 after the divorce announcement.

Emily was so beautiful! I love her scarf! Can't believe she was 95 here! Gorgeous! 💖♥️

My Mother was a friend to June DiMaggio and after a few conversations with her June told me not to pay any attention to any thing bad they say about Marilyn. She was a wonderful wholesome person. Perfectly happy to go get a burger at a drive in and not go to a red carpet event. RIP Mom, June and Marilyn.

Emily couldn’t be cuter

[@chrisjeffries2322]

Quite lucid at 95, I hope to be too.

Where’s the rest of it ?

[@SilverTechnicolor]

The PBS website has her interview listed under the "Ted Williams: "The Greatest Hitter Who Ever Lived" documentary material.

[@TJ_Is_Online]

What book is she referencing?

[@SilverTechnicolor]

Considering the timeline of the interview and the content, it points to 'Dinner with DiMaggio' by Rock Positano. His book contains quotes of Joe sharing private details of his intimacy with Marilyn.

[@andrewwalton1520]

Rather robotic limiting interviewer doesn't show much empathy or pursue any interesting avenues not on his prescribed list. Sounds like he's got a set of questions & by God he's gonna ask them no matter what. Disappointing he had a great guest & didn't make the most of her.

[@SilverTechnicolor]

Very frustrating, especially as so few people from the DiMaggio side have so spontaneously spoken about Marilyn.

[@jjdjj5392]

Is this his sister or joes first wife?

[@SilverTechnicolor]

It’s the wife of Joe’s brother, Dom DiMaggio.

[@princesssmileyface91]

Joe never remarried after Marilyn

[@titanicsosroblox]

@@princesssmileyface91 rumour has it they were supposed to remarry, but then she died

​@@paulinek9764 That's most likely, yes.
