Martin Short: Losses That Marked His Life

Actor Martin Short is experiencing another loss as his daughter Katherine has ended her life. This is yet another tragic event in the life of the 75-year-old actor, who has been marked by the loss of loved ones.

At the age of 12, he lost his brother in a car accident. At 17, his mother died of cancer, and two years later, his father died of a stroke.

In 2010, his wife, Nancy Dolman, passed away after a battle with cancer. Martin Short and Nancy Dolman met in 1972 and married eight years later, adopting three children.
