Murray Kaufman
Jacklyn’s first husband was also her most public spouse. She got married to Murray Kaufman in 1979. Murray was a DJ, known professionally as “Murray The K,” who was incredibly influential from the late 50s until the 1980s. Murray was known for embracing rock-and-roll, and most notably The Beatles. As an early adopter of Beatlemania, he was one of many people who earned the nickname “The Fifth Beatle” as he was a friend of the band.
While Murray was originally based out of New York, he moved to the West Coast when he and Jackie got married, per MTV News. Unfortunately, the pair’s marriage didn’t work out, and they got divorced in 1981. Murray died of cancer at age 60 in 1982.
