Meet Steve Letourneau, the first husband of Mary Kay Letourneau
Steven Letourneau and Mary Kay Letourneau led a happy life in Washington. New York Post stated that they were college sweethearts. Michelle Lobdell, Mary Kay’s best friend since the sixth grade in Newport Beach, California, told the newspaper that she was surprised when she met Steve.
Michelle discovered that intellectually they had very little in common. However, May became pregnant and her mother forced her to marry Steve. An old best friend told me New York Post“He checked all the boxes, but when I met him, there was nothing there… Now I realize it was pressure from his mother. She wanted her mother’s approval and never got it…she never had anyone in her life that she could trust her to love her and protect her and take care of her personal interests”.
Steve and Mary’s married life has been described as “crowded” and “full of confusion and money problems”. Michelle believes that her best friend was never in love with Steve. Therefore, she created Villi Fualaau as her ideal partner idea.
In 1996 Steve and Mary got married and already had four children. But Steve had no idea that his wife was having an affair with 12-year-old student Villi Fualaau. Villi was then only a year and a half older than her eldest son.
After Steve Letourneau discovered love letters between his wife and a student, their marriage fell apart. “It just blew my mind,” Steve said. “I was so far away.”
Steve confronted Maria. she admitted. She later drove to the boy’s house. “I asked him directly: ‘Are you sleeping with my wife?’ “The boy said yes. “I said, ‘Don’t call again. This is a big problem.’ Steve said he consulted with the priest and his wife’s family.
“Making the mother of your children a police officer is easier said than done,” he said.
After a relative informed the authorities about their relationship, Mary Kay would be convicted of child rape in the second degree. Meanwhile, Steve filed for divorce and was awarded full custody of his four children. After that he went to Alaska, remarried and had more children. He continued to live his life even though he kept quiet about what happened.
In 1997, Steve LeTourneau told The Orange County Register in a phone interview from Alaska: “I just want you to get help. She’s not the Mary Poppins that some people think she is.” Mary then stated that she still loved the boy, whose identity is being kept secret.
“It’s crazy. Just absolutely crazy,” Steve LeTourneau said at the time. “She still lives in fantasy land.”
In July 2020, Mary Kay died of cancer at the age of 58. Her ex-husband Steve hasn’t said anything about her ex’s untimely death. But the Fualaau and Letourneau families issued a joint statement on the same.
“We are deeply saddened to share the very difficult news that our beloved Mary passed away peacefully on July 6, 2020 after a six-month battle since being diagnosed with stage IV or metastatic cancer,” the statement read. “Mary tirelessly battled this terrible disease. In that spirit, we ask for privacy and respect for our desire to focus on the journey ahead for all of us in Mary’s collective family. We ask that you respect our boundaries and the need for privacy, with continued kindness and understanding,” added the families.
Steve said he had “moved on” and had “nothing to say” about the past in an interview with people magazine in 2017. According to a source, the blended family faced challenges in the mid-1990s, but the ex-husband managed to move past the controversy.
