Rush Limbaugh Getting Married for a Fourth Time?

0 comments
Conservative radio man Rush Limbaugh is taking a fourth stab at marriage with a weekend wedding to Kathryn Rogers, an events coordinator 26 years his junior, according to various reports.

Limbaugh, 59, will reportedly marry the 33-year-old Rogers at his Palm Beach compound. Though he hasn't confirmed the news, the host asked the media to respect his privacy during this "very special" time in his life.

"We try to live our lives as normal people," Limbaugh wrote in an e-mail to Page2Live.com, the gossip site for the Palm Beach Post. "We do NOT seek media attention, we do not want it, especially for this. It is very special, obviously, and we just don't want any media attention."

Publicly, El Rushbo has said he's taking time off from his job to get a puppy, but his biographer, Zev Chafets, told Politics Daily reporter Matt Lewis that the host was actually tying the knot.

The childless Limbaugh's first two marriages were over by the time he rose to national prominence. His third wedding, to Marta Fitzgerald in 1994, was officiated by his friend, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. They divorced in 2004.

Before beginning his courtship with Rogers in 2007, Limbaugh was romantically linked to then-CNN anchor Daryn Kagan.

According to Page2Live, Limbaugh suffered a heart attack in December on a trip to meet Rogers' family in Hawaii. One other interesting tidbit about her: She's apparently a direct descendant of founding father John Adams.

The nuptials, if confirmed, would come as a bit of a surprise, as Limbaugh has bristled at the notion of marrying for a fourth time. When Chafets asked the host if he was considering marriage with Rogers, he was hesitant.

"If Kathryn and I were to get married, I know they'd go after her. I'm always going to be a villain ... But Kathryn, I don't know how it would be for her, all the gossip and the nastiness. I worry about it.
