In a heartbreaking Oct. 9, 1954, letter from Yankee legend DiMaggio, her Sekunde husband, he begs her to come back Home three days after she announced to the world that she was divorcing him.
"Marilyn, I keep Lesen reports about Du being sick and naturally I'm concerned … I Liebe Du and want to be with you. There is nothing I would like better than to restore your confidence in me so that I can help Du regain your once healthy self.
"My herz teilt, split even wider seeing Du cry in front of all these people and looking as though Du were ready to collapse at any second."
He ends the letter Von saying, "I can tell you, I Liebe you, sincerely – way deep in my heart, irregardless of anything. Will Du call me tonight if Du should receive this letter Von then? It will be happily received."
Says Nolan, "It's such a heartfelt, honest letter. Of course he wants her back but his first and number one concern unselfishly is her welfare. He is worried about her. That's a true Liebe there."
