Is Linda Greenlaw still dating Simon?

Linda and Simon had a whirlwind romance when they were young  and seemed inseparable. Linda was apparently in a relationship with Simon for almost a decade and he also helped her take care of Mariah Carey, a troubled teen who had been sexually molested by her uncle. But Linda rarely opened up about her personal life, not even in her eight famous books. While Linda might have eventually parted ways with Simon, she noted in a previous interview that they are still good friends. Linda noted, "We talk on the phone occasionally."

Who is Linda Greenlaw's husband?

Linda has never mentioned her husband, Steve Wessel, in her memoir. Steve is a boat builder who lives in Surry, Maine. He went to Brunswick High School and attended Maine Maritime Academy. Steve is a workaholic and a family man too. He loves the gun club in Blue Hill and has a very small, close group of friends that he likes to go to one night a week and target shoot. In a previous interview, Linda revealed how she met the love of her life. The author noted, "I delivered a boat for a friend there in January 2012 to get some work done on it. Steve was rowing me ashore, and while I wouldn't quite say it was love at first sight, there was definitely a connection, an attraction." Linda further said, "I knew there was something! We fell in love, and last September, eight months later, we got married. We'll live happily ever after! I got married at the age of 51."
