Third Time's Another Wife

2004_04_melania.jpg

Nice! The Post gives attention to that little known about group of women, The Third Wives Club, with the engagement of the Donald and Melania Knauss marking his third marriage. The Post mentions other third wives of note, like Patricia Duff (Ron Perelman), Thalia (Tommy Mottola), and Judi Nathan (Giuliani), but Gothamist finds it odd they didn't mention last weekend's new third wife, Suzy Westlaufer-Welch (Salman Rushdie's new wife, Padma Lakshmi, is his fourth wife). In honor of the Trump-Knauss engagement, let us repeat what SNL's Weekend Update said, "Somewhere, Trump's fourth wife is being born."

Jane Seymour was Henry VIII's third wife.

You're missing an "I" there. You mean Henry VIII, not Henry VII.

Actually, SNL copied that one from The Onion headline "Woody Allen's third wife born." Seems like yet another piece of second chance humour from SNL. Shame.

Actually, the Onion copied that one from an old Capitol Hill joke about Strom Thurmond, which goes back decades.
