Hollywood actor Jamie Farr married his wife, Jo Ann Richards, almost 60 years ago, but when he proposed to her, it was without a ring.
It might seem like an anomaly to get married or propose without a ring, but it is not impossible. Classic actor Jamie Farr and his longtime wife Jo Ann Richards are living proof of this.
Farr did not propose to his woman with a ring, not because he was not chivalrous enough, but because he had no money to purchase a ring. Thankfully, their union did last a lifetime and more.
JAMIE FARR WAS A STRUGGLING ACTOR
At the beginning of his career, Farr was at his lowest lows because he was not getting acting gigs. He got so desperate that he was readily available to take meager sums for gigs.
Farr did not think of luxury; he just wanted to put some food in his fridge while getting by each day with his then-lover Jo Ann Richards. The actor once shared that he got so desperate for employment that he did something out of character.
