Where Are Dirty John's Betty Broderick & Her Children Today?
Dirty John's second season explores the scandalous '80s divorce case and double homicide that landed Betty Broderick in jail.
www.townandcountrymag.comHere’s a quick update based on the latest available reporting:
- Betty Broderick died in May 2026 at age 78 while still serving her life sentence. Her four children—Kimberly (Kim), Lee, Daniel Jr., and Rhett—were reported to be by her side or involved in discussions surrounding her death, with public commentary noting the long, complicated history between Betty and each sibling.[3][7][9]
- The children have long been divided in their views about their mother, ranging from continued support to calls for accountability, and their lives have largely been shaped by the media attention and the family trauma surrounding the 1989 murders.[1][4][7]
- Several outlets have documented ongoing public interest in their paths after the murders, including career and personal-life developments, as well as reflections on forgiveness and boundaries within the family over the decades.[2][5][6]
