Robert Palmer met Susan Eileen Thatcher backstage at one of his shows in Pittsburgh in late 1978. Thatcher was a veteran groupie and had been backstage to many shows. She married Robert Palmer in late 1979 at age nineteen, and the pair remained married until 1999, when Susan requested a divorce from her husband. She felt that they had drifted apart and that she would be happier not married to him. The marriage yielded two children. Susan is now a successful artist who resides in Sedona, Arizona, where she owns her own art gallery.
