Patrick Swayze's marriage life
Lisa Niemi and Patrick Swayze had one of the most romantic relationships in Hollywood. Soulmates and life partners, Swayze and his wife were each other's pillars of strength during 34 years of marriage.
Lisa was there for Patrick throughout his battle with pancreatic cancer. Their fairytale romance was at times unspoiled, but the couple had their ups and downs.
The pair first met in 1975 in Texas at Patrick's mom's dance studio. In 2003, the pair separated for a year because the actor developed a drinking problem, but the couple overcame this hiccup.
They were married for over three decades. When he was alive, the actor said he was thrilled when his wife Lisa Niemi got pregnant, but her miscarriage in her first trimester devastated them.
After the miscarriage, the couple tried for another baby, but Lisa failed to get pregnant again. In 2009, the actor passed away.
Was J. Whittle left an inheritance from his famous father?
Officially, no, he was not in the will because his late father was unaware of J. Whittle's existence. After his death, the legendary actor left behind approximately $40 million.
As a result, his son could be entitled to a portion of the money. Nonetheless, Swayze's wife, Lisa Niemi, denied Whittle's connection to the actor, claiming that he is not her husband's son.
Patrick Swayze’s son now resides in Missouri with his wife and six kids (four girls and two boys). Since the news broke of his alleged father, Jason Whittle has not been very public about this revelation. These days, he works in real estate and stays away from the spotlight.
