Sadler began by writing on Facebook, “Early yesterday morning, my wife, Marni Bakst, finally lost her two year battle with cancer.”
The 74-year-old actor reflected upon his 46-year’s long-lasting marriage life with his wife and continued, “After what has been an amazing forty five years of marriage I don’t think I can fathom or put into words much of this yet.”
Before concluding, he lauded, “Maybe with time and a little distance I’ll find it easier to describe this extraordinary artist, feminist, wife, and mother, but for now I want to thank you all for your patience and kind words. Yours, Bill.”
William Sadler and Marni Joan Bakst tied the knot on May 6, 1978 and share a daughter Sadler Colley Bakst, who is also an actress.
