Oliver North Marries Fawn Hall in Private Virginia Ceremony

The low-key ceremony brings back together two central IranContra figures whose roles made them national names.

Overview

  • A marriage certificate shows they wed on August 27 in Arlington County, Virginia, with retired judge Dean S. Worcester officiating, after SpyTalk first reported the union.
  • CNN verified the document and reached North, who declined to comment beyond saying, “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.”
  • Reports describe a secret, low-key event not attended by North’s four children, and one daughter told the New York Times the siblings did not know the wedding was happening.
  • A friend quoted in Michael Isikoff’s reporting says the relationship rekindled after the December funeral for North’s wife of 56 years, Elizabeth.
  • Hall earlier received immunity after admitting she smuggled and shredded IranContra documents, and North’s 1989 convictions tied to the scandal were vacated in 1991.
