American musician, songwriter, and poet Lewis Allan Reed passed away on October 27, 2013.
He was born on March 2, 1942. He had a solo career that lasted five decades in addition to being the guitarist, singer, and primary songwriter for the rock group Velvet Underground.
Who is Lou Reed wife Sylvia Morales?
Reed’s second marriage, which lasted from 1980 to 1990, is to Morales. She had been his manager and long-term wife. Amazingly, Morales likes the solitude that comes with living a private life, yet she felt compelled to violate her nearly 18-year media embargo to support Reed.
When Howard Sounes published a contentious biography of Reed, Morales admitted that the Reed she knew was not the one portrayed in the book.
Morales, who has been with Reed for about 18 years (of which they were married for ten), asserted that he never physically abused or assaulted her, contrary to what Sounes stated in his book.
She debunked the notion that Reed had a mental illness by stating that he was proud of his Jewish lineage despite not being religious. Morales added that Reed promised to stop abusing drugs and alcohol about 1979, despite his severe addictions.
