블라덱 즈비슈코 이혼
At the end of 1932, 22-1살짜리 빌라 밀리(Vila Milli)가 남편을 고소했습니다, 프로레슬러 Wladek Zbyszko, 신체적 학대와 간통을 이유로 이혼.
Milli는 41세의 Zbyszko를 "그녀를 너무 세게 껴안았다"는 이유로 신체적 학대 혐의로 기소했습니다. 브루클린 대법원의 Dunne 판사가 이혼 소송을 심리했습니다.. 그는 Zbyszko가 그의 아내를 학대했다는 의심을 표명했습니다. 그러나, he did not dismiss the adultery charge so quickly.
Miss Milli, a former Ziegfield Follies Showgirl named Anna Cyganiewiez nee Stark, produced two witnesses. Both witnesses claimed to see Wladek Zbyszko, whose real name was Wladek Cyganiewiez, in a Boston hotel room with another show girl.
Wladek Zbyszko initially denied the charges and threatened to sue Miss Milli’s mother, Blanche Stark, for alienating her daughter from Zbyszko. 그러나, Zbyszko decided against the lawsuit.
원래, Zbyszko denied all the charges but in April 1933, he withdrew his defense of the suit. Zbyszko’s lawyer told the court Zbyszko did not intend to put forth a defense against Miss Milli’s charges. Zbyszko’s action cleared the way for the court to grant Miss Milli’s request for a divorce.
A wealthy widow, 부인. Dorothy Lassen, announced her intention to marry Wladek Zbyszko, if the court granted his divorce from Miss Milli. Zbyszko decided to seek happiness with Mrs. Lassen and dropped his defense to the divorce.
Zbyszko married Miss Milli in Union City, New Jersey during July 1928. 처음에는, the couple seemed happy but the stresses of both their careers, which kept them apart for long periods, took its toll on the marriage.
Justice Dunne granted the divorce. In October 1933, Miss Milli remarried. Despite his engagement, I cannot find evidence of Wladek Zbyszko marrying Mrs. Lassen. When he died in Missouri in 1968, Zbyszko was married to Maria Bromowska.
The constant travel of professional wrestling and the temptations of life on the road take a heavy toll on wrestlers’ marriages. Whether wrestlers wrestled in 1880 또는 1980, life on the road put pressure on wrestling marriages. Marriages did survive these challenges but the story of Wladek’s marriage to Miss Mill is more common than not.
