I didn’t care for their music, but something about Toni Tennille... I thought she was hot.

Shields and Yarnell divorced in 1986.
Lorraine Yarnell died in Europe in 2010.

So I told my better half about this story and she asked, “Why are they getting divorced? After 40 years of marriage they probably aren’t even talking to one another”.

I believe she’s dead and Shields runs some kind of tourist trap in Arizona somewhere.

At this point in their lives... what’s the point?

Did they each find a new “hottie”?

I love how the Marxist propaganda machine posing as our impartial media is burying the REAL reason they are getting divorced which is the stop the Marxists from stealing their money under Obamacommiecare. This is quite common now, in an effort to break the American family the Marxists are punishing married couples through Obamacommiecare and some people have no choice but to get divorced or face financial ruin. Her husband is sick with Parkinsons so you can imagine the medical costs especially the Marxist mandated deductibles. I mean please: They been married 40 years, they are in their 70s and NOW they are getting divorced? Yeah OK.

LOL! oh nooo I remember them! My God, who would have ever though Mimes would have had their own national TV show? “Hell let’ torture the public!” Tv in the 70s was completely insane, I was talking about this with my brother the other day. Remember all the cancer movies they use to have? All the TV “family movies of the week” of people dying of cancer, Brians song, Death not be proud, A shining season on and on and on every freakin’ week another movie of someone dying of cancer. Oh yes and in between totally bizarre monster movies like SSSSS or the Gargoyles or Dont be afraid of the dark, what a depressing time, and at then we had to deal with the 2nd worst POTUS of all time Mr. Peanut...hey maybe it was better back then LOL!

I think they sold their naming rights to a porno and marijuana site.

I hope Shields and Yarnell are doing okay.

I actually saw them perform live one time at the Flint Center (De Anza College) in Cupertino. Late 70s.

I wasn’t aware that there have been several “Peaches “ over the years. They were singing partners, not husband and wife.
