Bob Newhart, a legendary figure in comedy and acting, regrettably lost his wife in April 2023.

The renowned American actor, who is well known for his memorable performances in adored shows including The Bob Newhart Show, Elf, The Librarian, and the popular sitcom The Big Bang Theory, recently became a widower.

Bob Newhart, a comedy great, bid his lifelong partner farewell in April. The family sent a statement on Twitter expressing their heartbreak at the tragedy.

”We lost our beloved Ginnie Quinn Newhart – Wife, Mother and Grandmother on April 23rd, 2023 after a long battle with illness,” the statement read.

”She was our rock and we miss her terribly,” Newhart said.

Ginnie and Bob Newhart had been wed for 60 years. In 1962, their friend and fellow comic legend Buddy Hackett paired them up on a blind date. The following year, in 1963, the pair was married.

Ginnie, his wife, supported him throughout his television career. From 1972 through 1978, Bob Hartley played a clinic psychologist on The Bob Newhart Show. Additionally, from 1982 to 1990, he portrayed Dick Loudon, an innkeeper in Vermont, on the television series Newhart.

The Newhart series finale, in which it was revealed that everything had been a dream and that Dick Loudon only lived in Bob Hartley’s mind, is credited to Ginnie.

Many people rank the twist in the end as one of their favourite television moments ever since it happened. Ginnie would frequently be seen in the background of many of Newhart’s programmes. The duo frequently made appearances together in the 1970s game show Tattletales.

The couple had four kids: Courtney, Robert, Tim, and Jennifer. They have grandchildren as well. When asked if he regretted getting married to his wife, Newhart said that he had absolutely no regrets about it.

Instead, he stated that if finances had allowed, he would have preferred to marry his wife sooner.

”If I could’ve afforded it, I would’ve gotten married earlier. When my first record came out and hit number one, I didn’t really have anyone to share it with. It would’ve been great if Ginny and I could’ve shared that, but I couldn’t afford to get married,” he said in 2019.

This is such heartbreaking news. Our hearts go out to the Newhart family and everyone grieving the loss of Ginnie Newhart. Please join us in sending your thoughts and prayers for the family.
