After a bad marriage to Martin “Kendu” Isaacs, Mary moved on. She told Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager that she had finally found her true love: herself.
“I love you.” She said, “I think I deserve a good relationship.” “By myself. With a friend. It comes to you when you believe it.
Mary also said, “I can be alone because I believe in love for myself. I’m not going to give up on love.” I’m not going to let a bad marriage or relationship stop me from living a happy life, falling in love, and getting the hugs, kisses, and desires I want.
