Don Felder is known as an American songwriter and singer. He is most famous for being the lead guitarist of the Eagles.
Donald William Felder was born on September 21, 1947, in Gainesville, Florida. His early life was difficult due to the fact that his family did not have much money. From early on in his life, he was interested in music. Felder worked at a music shop in order to obtain equipment and traded guitar lessons for music theory lessons in order to learn how to write. One of his students was Tom Petty. Felder's efforts paid off as he became part of the Gainesville music scene, which was brimming with talent at the time.
Don Felder was in a marriage with his first wife, Susan Felder for about 29 years. He met her in Florida when he was a struggling, small-time musician. They dated each other for several years before getting married. When they got married, he was still struggling to establish himself as a musician. They had a small reception ceremony and invited some of their relatives and friends to it because they could not afford to spend a huge amount of money for their wedding. They moved to their rented apartment after their marriage. Soon, after their marriage, he signed some contracts with the famous music companies, which earned him success.
After a few years of their marriage, they welcomed their first child. They have four children together. As the children grew up, many differences arose between them. There were many problems between them and they could not stay with each other for a long time. In the year 2000, they got separated. The reason for their separation was probably due to his extramarital affairs. He was involved in many other relationships when he was still married to Susan.
It was rumored that he once had a party with groupies. The women who attended the party sent a letter to Susan detailing about every event that happened at the party. Susan was so heartbroken and they both attended a counseling session. He stated that he gave her emotional and financial support to start a jewelry business and after that, she became busy with her business. According to Don, he wanted to spend more time with her which was not possible due to her hectic schedule and this was the reason he decided to end the relationship.
