Gene Kelly was married three times during his life. His first wife was Betsy Blair (December 11, 1923 â March 13, 2009). She was an aspiring actress/dancer from New Jersey who met Gene in 1940 when she was a day early for a night club audition.
It took Gene Kelly s second wife more than 20 years to catch him, but once he fell for her, she became the love of his life. The Kellys marriage fizzled out in 1957, when the couple decided it was impossible for two busy actors to have any kind of stable family life.
