In wake of news breaking on Thursday about Dan Marino's affair with former CBS Sports production assistant Donna Savattere, we've compiled everything you need to know about the New York Socialite, including why the story broke now and some of Savattere's lifestyle choices since the event.
Did this 2010 memoir reveal who Dan Marino was? You be the judge.
Dan Marino's children are apparently very supportive of him and what he has done for them, says this article.
Both Savattere and Marino had roots in helping children. Marino started the Dan Marino Foundation to battle autism, and Savattere has helped out at a home for physically challenged children, this article says.
This story claims that the reason the affair was revealed is because Savarette wanted to change both her name and her daughter's name, which the latter would require permission from the birth father.
This visual story discusses many different aspects of Savarette's life, including the increase in her spending and social prominence in New York after the deal was reached to keep Marino's identity secret and his daughter's life comfortable.
This story states that both Savarette and Marino wished to keep the affair a secret.
The New York Post was the first publication to break the story, sharing some details about Savarette's current married life.
Marino played in the NFL from 1983 through 1999, with all 17 seasons spent in a Miami Dolphins uniform. He recorded a career-high two playoff wins, 5,084 yards passing and 48 touchdowns all during the 1984 campaign. Marino threw for over 4,000 yards four other times in his career, and had playoff game-winning drives in each of his last two post-season wins. At one point or another in his career (and in some cases to this day), Marino has held over 30 different passing records.
