My Life with David Cassidy

Meryl Tanz (Wife #2) - Part 1

March 16, 2022 • Carol Kaplan • Season 2 • Episode 1

In his autobiography, David Cassidy describes her as strikingly attractive and "lookin' for love." In the first episode of Season Two, South African horse breeder Meryl Tanz describes meeting the number one American heartthrob of the time, how he asked her to dance, how he sang to her, and how they fell in love on their first date. Their marriage may have only lasted from 1984 to 1988, but Meryl's insights about Cassidy are unlike anything you've ever heard. This marks Ms. Tanz's first and (to date) only interview ever given about her marriage to the pop icon, and results in information never before publicly revealed.
