Bob Valvano is a
<a href="/biography/bob-valvano">sportscaster</a> who works for ESPN2, ESPN Plus and ESPNU. He mostly covers
basketball games. He also talks on radio shows about the sport. He spent a
decade and a half in his coaching career. He played basketball, soccer and
golf. He is married to Darlene
and has two sons from the marriage. When
asked about his secret of 26 years of marital life, a few years ago, he said
that it is almost 26 years and she can still fit into her wedding dress. He
said that he is still crazy and often acts like an eighteen year old. A few
years later, news about him, getting divorced, spread like wildfire.

He proposed his wife and she accepted immediately. They
got married after a year. He is 50; his life is filled with bills, diet and
other problems and yet, he somehow finds things to be happy about. This is a
lesson he learnt from his brother, who fought cancer, till the end. There are
also stories that she left him and he became very depressed due to it.

He once said that he
ended his sports career and took up the coaching career for Darlene. She has
been moving with him for about 20 years and he felt it was unfair to make her
work for more years. Though the rumor about the separation spread very fast,
there are no concrete proofs that he got separated from Darlene. He has been a
very good <a href="/biography/bob-valvano">husband</a> as per the way he
explains his personal life.

There are no comments
from his side about the rumors of the separation. Very soon, there was news
about his heart problem and the whole focus of the media and the public shifted
to his health and everyone forgot about the separation. Darlene never shared
the public screen and is always inert, when it comes to her personal life.

There are no details
about his partner in the reports of his heart surgery. This enforces that he
and Darlene are separated. There are no details about the alimony, child
support and the custody. It is assumed that they are in the process of
separation as there are no reports about the divorce case. Some rumors indicate
that Darlene initiated the separation and some rumors indicate, just the
opposite.

There are no rumors
about his girlfriend, which would initiate the
separation. His son, Jamie is getting fame as a hockey player. When asked about
the influence of his family in his career, he said that neither he nor his
brother took the sport that his family is well known for. He said that his mom
is very protective of him. Bob talks a
lot about his brother. He once spoke how his brother fought cancer, till his
end. He said that he has been a big <a href="/biography/bob-valvano">role model</a> in his life in terms of
inspiration. He said that his brother did not just live for 47 years. If the
life of a man is counted based on the impact of his life on others, then is
living still in many hearts.
