Personal Profile
Her Early Life and Marriages
Julie Lebiedzinski formerly known as Julie Lynne Kramer was born on 7th February 1960 in Elkhart, Indiana, the US. Much of what is known about her life centers on her marriage to the Down on the Corner singer.
She first met him in 1986 while he was on tour in Indianapolis, Indiana. They dated for roughly four years before walking down the aisle on 20th April 1991 in her hometown, Elkhart, Indiana.
Her marriage to the California native was blessed with a daughter and two sons; Kelsy, Shane, and Tyler. Kelsy, the youngest of the three was born on 10th May 2001 at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, California. Her older brothers, Shane and Tyler were 10 and 9 years old when she was born.
Lebiedzinski’s two boys are honing their musical skills thanks to their father who allows them to join him in his concerts. While they both are vocalists, Shane doubles as a guitarist.
Apart from her three kids with the former CCR lead singer, she had a daughter, Lyndsay, from an earlier marriage. Nothing is known about the name and identity of the first man she married, nor what exactly lead to the dissolution of the union.
Did Her Husband Marry Another Woman Before Her?
The Indiana native was not the first woman the 1993 Rock and Roll Hall of Famer was married to. He tied the knots with Martha Piaz on 4th September 1965. They knew each other since their high school days. He was 20 years old at the time they took their marital vows.
According to reports, the two had three kids, but their names and identities are not known. So, we cannot confirm the authenticity of the information.
Five years later the marriage ended in a divorce. It is not clear what transpired between the pair that led to the split.
What remains clear is the fact that after the divorce, he left CCR in 1971, and the remaining members of the band dissolved in 1972.
