Early on in their relationship, Bob and Beverly had discussed the idea of having children. When they lived on yachts it felt like kids were out of the question, but they agreed to revisit the conversation in a few years.
When Beverly turned 30, the couple decided that they were still on the same page — they weren’t going to have children. They had a fulfilled, happy, exciting life, and Bob was also close to his nieces and nephews.
Over the next decades, the couple traveled a lot for work, including to Turkey, Tahiti, all across the Caribbean.
“We just had a beautiful life, beautiful friends, beautiful industry,” says Beverly. “We were always happy… A lot of people say you can’t work with your husband, but I loved it.”
Their early years on the yacht had built a strong foundation, she says, both for working together and enjoying married life together.
“When you live that close to someone for five years on a boat, you know them. You know you trust them. I trusted him with my life,” says Beverly. “I totally trusted him in every way. And I think when you have a partner, I think you need love — which obviously we had — trust and respect. I had all those things.”
