The Life of Sitcom Star Marlo Thomas

As of 2026, she is living as a widow after Phil Donahue’s death in 2024. Public reports have long connected the couple to New York, including the Manhattan home they shared, while their former Westport, Connecticut, estate has also remained part of their real-estate history.

Her closest personal circle is still tied to the family life she built with Donahue, including the relationships she formed with his children and grandchildren. After decades of public partnership, her present-day life appears quieter and more private, shaped by home, family, and the loss of the man who had been beside her for 44 years.
