When Did Mickey Middleton and Husband Bryan Cranston Get Married? Their Wedding
The couple married in the late 1970s. Her then-husband Bryan was just 23 at the time of their nuptials.
He was dressed in a very 1970s tuxedo on their big day. Their wedding was organized at her parents’ home located in Prescott, Arizona, a little town in Yavapai county.
Although the actor walked down the aisle with Mickey, Bryan indeed wasn’t ready to tie the knot. He wrote in his memoir called A Life in Parts,
“Though I’d officiated other people’s weddings, I don’t think I grasped the depth and the consequence of the commitment I was making. The vows I spoke weren’t empty. I cared about her. I loved her. But in the end, I wasn’t ready.”
Despite that, the two led a happy married life for a few years. In the meantime, Cranston was struggling to make a career in Hollywood but his wife had some legitimate desires like having a baby and a beautiful home.
After about two years of marriage, they also started searching for a house on Saugus in Santa Clarita Valley. Nonetheless, the cost of a house in the area was out of their financial condition.
Actually, Bryan neither want a house nor a baby at the time to be focused on his rising acting career.
Their Divorce
The two eventually split after a few years of marriage. The actor said of his wife in his memoir,
“She Nodded sadly, She knew. If either of us had been honest, we would have gone our separate ways much earlier.”
He added,
“She was a sweetheart. No arguing. No bitterness. We were just mismatched.”
Cranston also disclosed they later became closer than they had been in their two years of marriage. Following their separation, Mickey went back home to Florida but the former duo would still talk on the phone.
