First Love Took My All, Next Husband Made Me Whole

After three years of relentless pursuit, Kimberly Kidman married the man infamous for his chronic procrastination—Wilford Vanbrugh.

When she collapsed with acute appendicitis and needed to be rushed into surgery, he sat in front of the television, his eyes fixed on a baseball game.

“Hold on a sec,” he said reluctantly. “This round’s almost over.”

Even when she was kidnapped, and the ransom deadline was only five minutes away, he was still in the shower.

When he finally picked up the phone, his tone was lazy and even mocking.

“If you can’t wait,” he said, “go ahead and kill her. Sorry.”
