Not the spicy details unfortunately, but apparently they found some sort of "normal" because all three (husband of 3rd grade and then 1st grade teacher was also a high school teacher) stayed with the school district and in the same schools. For all I know, there was some sort of true wife swap that was amicable to all parties (doubtful, but we're talking small town Missouri so not out of the question lol).

Funny story from the early 90's: this apparently played out in my small town elementary school. I was in 4th grade when shit really hit the fan and all the divorces/marriages happened. I obviously didn't know or understand the drama at the time, but I just grew up thinking it was normal for teachers to swap last names. My 1st grade teacher all of a sudden had my 3rd grade teacher's name and vice versa. It wasn't until (embarrassingly) much later that adult me thought about it was like "ooohhhh, that must've been quite the spicy gossip back in the day."
