How Did Renard Spivey Meet His Wife Patricia Marshall Spivey?
It is not known when and how Renard and Patricia first crossed paths, however, it is known that they got married on 21st March 2015. Their wedding was held in Harris, Texas, and was attended by their closest friends and family.
After being hitched for a little over 4 years, issues began to arise in the marriage for the couple. Patricia’s brother, Ezra Washington, claimed the couple had bickering on a regular basis due to their lack of closeness, Renard’s reliance on steroids, and his unfaithfulness.
Despite their efforts to reconcile, quarrels between the two kept arising. One argument, however, had an extremely tragic result; during the altercation, Renard and Patricia scuffled over a firearm, which left Patricia dead from two shots and Renard with a bullet wound in his leg.
Renard and Patricia were wed from 2015 until her death in 2019. Before Patricia, he had been married to Heather P. Hogrobrooks in 1978 and then he tied the knot with Debra Melrose.

Medical examiners declared that Patricia had been shot twice in her right arm, shattering the bone and piercing her heart and lungs. Additionally, they noticed bruises on her wrists.
