Patton Oswalt’s wife Meredith Salenger addressed comments about her husband’s tribute to his late spouse Michelle McNamara on the 10th anniversary of her death. Patton shared a throwback photo of him and his late partner smiling on Instagram on April 21 with the caption, “Ten years gone. Miss you, baby.” And Meredith—who has been married to Patton since 2017—joined in on praising Michelle, calling her a “beauty” who was “smart,” “cool” and “brave” in the comments section of her husband’s post. She explained that Michelle was “clearly smart enough to love you and wonderful enough to be adored by you.” Plus, the actress noted that Michelle “made the greatest kid on the planet,” referring to Patton’s 17-year-old Alice, whom he welcomed during his marriage to the late author. “Wish I had known her,” Meredith concluded in her comment. “I’m so sorry for the heartbreak you and Alice will always hold. I love you both with all my heart. Hugs forever.” When fans questioned Michelle’s sincerity, she responded with a powerful message.

  1. How on earth could anyone take this sweet message as something to be negative about? His love for his deceased wife doesn't take away from his love for his current one, who handles it in the best way possible. Wild to think that someone shouldn't remember their deceased partner just because they have a new one.

  2. She’s such a good person. He is allowed to do a tribute to his first wife. People are so horrified. Can’t the world just allow people to give tributes to loved ones?

  3. I am a widow, and after I married my second husband I never had to worry about tributes because every year on the anniversary of my first husband's death and on his birthday he would bring me flowers, take me out to dinner and otherwise help me remember him. Loving again doesn't mean you didn't love before and being widowed is not the same thing as being divorced. And as an added bonus my second husband knew that I was capable of going the distance regardless of what life threw my way. It's a good thing.

  4. Sometimes I forget I share the same oxygen with people that compete, and get jealous with the dead, and then things like this remind me and I get a strange feeling 🥴😵🤢
