Oliver North and Fawn Hall Marry 40 Years After Iran-Contra Scandal

Oliver L. North, who holds a decorated past as a former Marine and served as a national security aide during the Reagan administration, recently tied the knot with Fawn Hall, his former secretary. The couple exchanged vows on August 27 in a civil ceremony held in Arlington County, Virginia, with retired district court judge Dean S. Worcester officiating. The news of their marriage was reported by journalist Michael Isikoff on Substack.

This wedding signifies a notable evolution in the relationship between Mr. North and Ms. Hall, who both played pivotal roles in the infamous arms-for-cash scandal, known as the Iran-Contra affair, during the 1980s. At that time, Mr. North was a lieutenant colonel in the Marines and actively involved as a National Security Council aide, where he captured the attention of the American public with his assertive testimony regarding the controversial sale of arms to Iran.
