John Denver and Annie Martell married when they were in their early 20s in the mid 1960s after a brief courtship. Annie admitted herself that they did not really know each other. John was a member of the Mitchell trio at the time and toured constantly.

After they married, money was very tight for a time, which put a strain on the relationship. Then he found success, but still Annie did not travel with him.

They had two adopted children. John was tested and found to be "sterile."

John admitted himself in his autobiography and on the associated CDs that he made to accompany the book that he was unfaithful to Annie and this escalated after he hit the big time. He spent little time in Colorado where they had a home, and they had numerous separations during the 1970s, one of which inspired "Annie's Song."

Annie and John divorced in the early 1980s.

In 1986 John met Cassandra Delaney, who had appeared in various states of undress in the 1986 film Fair Game. There was a 20-year age gap. John admitted in his autobiography of being warned about Cassie by her boyfriend to whom she waved goodbye at the airport as she flew off to Aspen with John after they had known each other only a few days. John said that there were rumors that Cassandra had been unfaithful during their courtship.

Cassandra gave birth to a baby girl, Jesse Belle, in May 1989 - nine months after marrying John. After the baby, John wanted to tour again, but Cassandra wanted to stay with the child. Things turned sour, and Cassandra complained of his moods and his drinking. John said that Cassandra was making a fool of him.

They split in 1991 and divorced in 1993. The divorce cost John dearly.
