His wife...


Columbo keeps talking about his wife in almost all Columbo movies I've seen. Only thing is that he doesn't wear a ring on his hand...

reply

That doesn't necessary mean he is not married. I know couples who don't wear ring.
On the other hand, this from 1968 so you're probably right, I think those days they all wore their wedding ring...

In this episode, he says of his wife 'she gives me one every morning', but he's only talking about pencils.

reply

She was really hot.

My mom and dad were married for fifty-two years. When they got married, they didn't have much money. My dad managed to get my mom a ring, but they couldn't afford one for him. As time went on, their financial circumstances improved, but they let the ring issue slide and my dad never had one.

reply

My dad never wore a wedding ring either. He didn't wear any jewelry, not even a watch.
