Shocking Facts About Don Knotts
Maybe It Is ‘The Second Time’s The Charm’
It was ten years later that the “ladies man” Don Knotts moved on to his second marriage with Loralee Czuchna. This love affair did not last as long as his first marriage with Kathryn Metz. Knottz and Czuchna married in October 1974 and divorced in 1983.

A rumor began that Knotts had been experiencing episodes of heavy depression. The depression was noted as one of the (probably the many including the age difference) reasons the couple grew apart and eventually went their separate ways. The newly divorced actor was now single and ready to mingle.
