Susan’s Divorce
They say, to achieve success, an individual may take years upon years, but it would only take a minute for that success to take a turn, which is the harsh reality of things. In other words, one may be up after years of struggle, but things would promptly become upside down within seconds. This notion has been proven in the life of Don Felder, Susan’s ex-husband.
As mentioned earlier, it was in 1971 that Susan got married to the legendary guitarist. Susan and Don had four children: Leah Jenner, Cody Felder, Jesse Felder and Rebecca Felder. However, these children were not enough reason for the ex-couple to try and mend their difference since Susan and Don still opted to divorce.
According to Susan’s ex-husband, apart from being fired from the Mighty Eagle band, his other biggest disaster in his life was divorcing from Susan. The weight of the divorce was hard on Felder to the extent that he hasn’t been in any other marriage or relationship ever since. To him, the divorce tainted his hard-earned image as a father and a family man.
