Bessie Smith was married three times, first to Earl Love, and then to Jack Gee, althought both marriages ended. she also was in a relationship with Richard Morgan, a Chattanooga,Tennessee

If I'm not mistaken her last husband was also in the music business both died in a car accident .

*****************

Bessie was never officially divorced from Jack. After Jack took Bessie's money to open Gertie Saunders show that relationship was over but they never got a divorce.

Richard Morgan was not Bessie's husband or even a boyfriend. He was a friend who basically was only in it for the money.

Richard did not die in the auto accident. He survived. Bessie basically died from massive internal injuries and was in shock by the time help got there.
