'Leanne': Leanne Morgan's Reel-Life Marital Trouble Is Opposite To Real-Life Love Story With Chuck

Netflix sitcom, Leanne has been winning hearts with its plot. It's a family-oriented sitcom that's all about rising after a heartbreak, second chances, and humour. Leanne is inspired by the life of real-life comedian, Leanne Morgan. Well, not the entire plot is taken from real life. While in the sitcom, the fictional story is about how 'Leanne' became heartbroken after her husband left her for another woman, in real life, the comedian has been married to Chucky Morgan for over 3 decades, and the couple shares three kids. So, amid Leanne trending on Netflix, let's dive deep into the real-life love story of Leanne Morgan.

Leanne Morgan and Chuck Morgan's love story: They met during their college days

While in reel life, Leanne's husband 'Bill' left her for another woman, in real life, she has a fairytale love story with Chuck. While on the sitcom, Leanne talks about divorce, she has been married to her husband, Chuck Morgan, for over thirty years. Chuck and Leanne met each other during the 1990s. It was during her mid-20s when she was pursuing a degree in child and family studies from the University of Tennessee. Alongside, she was working at a restaurant when she crossed paths with Chuck.

Back then, Chuck was pursuing an MBA and used to come for snacks in the same place where the actress worked. Talking about the same with her daughter, Maggie, Leanne said on her YouTube that Chuck seemed to her like a 'praying mantis', a tall and lean man. Leanne recounted:

“Your daddy, Chuck Morgan, was in MBA school and came to work [at the restaurant]. They had a group of trainees come through. And I’m standing up against the wall waiting for my table to be seated. He’s tall. He’s 6’4″. He’s so thin. He looks like a praying mantis. I mean that in a sweet way. And I said, ‘You’re as tall as a tree.'”

Leanne and Chuck eventually fell in love. In an interview with Fresh Air, Leanne jokingly shared that her husband was obsessed with her, wouldn't leave her alone, and even stalked her when he was studying at the University of Tennessee. Leanne shared:

"He, you know, was just so crazy about me. And when I was at the University of Tennessee [he] would not leave me alone and stalked me, really."

Recalling her turbulent first marriage, Leanne Morgan shared:
