First Wife Sues Bride for Million in Heart Balm Suit
DETROIT reports Dr. Kerwin W. Kinard formerly of Kansas City and his second wife Mrs. Gail Stephens Kinard faced a $1,000,000 alienation of affections suit filed by Kinard’s first wife. The couple stayed at a Metamora Michigan estate amid preparations for a European honeymoon tied to where they first met 25 years ago. The first wife accuses the second wife of blandishing and flattering Kinard out of their marriage. Kinard and his second wife declined to discuss the case as they sought seclusion at the estate owned by Mrs. Kinard’s father Henry Stephens, a lumber wealth holder. The first marriage ended with a divorce on November 11 and the second marriage followed three days later.
