Okay, so today I decided to dive into something I’ve been curious about for a while: figuring out who Andre the Giant’s wife was. Honestly, I didn’t even know if he was married, so it was a total shot in the dark.
I started by just, you know, Googling it. “Andre the Giant wife” – super basic, I know. Most of the results were about his wrestling career, his size, that sort of thing. Lots of pictures of him, obviously.
Digging Deeper
I scrolled through a bunch of articles, and it was getting a little frustrating. Everything was focused on his wrestling persona, “The Eighth Wonder of the World,” and his role in The Princess Bride. Which, don’t get me wrong, is awesome, but not what I was looking for.
Then I started seeing mentions of a daughter. That was a clue! I figured if he had a daughter, there was a good chance he had a wife at some point. So I adjusted my search, adding “daughter” to the mix.
This helped a little. I found out his daughter’s name is Robin Christensen-Roussimoff. Still not much about a wife, though. It was mostly articles about Robin carrying on his legacy in wrestling and keeping his memory alive.
Getting (Slightly) Closer
I kept digging, clicking on anything that mentioned Robin and looking for any hint of her mother. I found a few forum posts and fan discussions, but nothing concrete. It was all speculation and rumors, which wasn’t very helpful.
I even tried searching for “Jean Christensen,” thinking that might be the wife’s name, based on Robin’s middle name. No luck there either. It felt like I was hitting a wall.
Final attmpt
I give a simple summary about the topic and my searching.I found there is only one daughter with Andre and keep his memory alive.
