Shirley Boone - Biography
Shirley Boone was born on April 24, 1934 in the USA as Shirley Lee Foley. She is an actress and assistant director, known for Hollywood Without Make-Up (1963), Praise the Lord (1973) and The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962). She had been married to Pat Boone since November 7, 1953 until her death. They have four children.
Pat and Shirley began their love story at 16-years-old. “We were very much in love,” Pat revealed. It wasn’t until they were 19 when Shirley’s family planned to move away, that Pat realized it was time to ask her father country singing legend Red Foley for permission to marry Shirley. “He tearfully asked me one thing, ‘Will you take care of my girl?’ and I said I would,” Pat explained. “And the tears rolled into his coffee because he knew he was moving and planned to take her with him, but he was willing to leave her with me.”
In November 1953, the pair eloped and then settled in Teaneck, New Jersey, where they welcomed their four daughters in five years. Together, they supported each other, as their lives and careers were established Pat was working his way through rigorous Columbia University (he graduated cum laude) and battling with Elvis for the hearts of America’s teenagers, while Shirley focused on raising their four girls.
