    She was his fourth wife, his only widow.

      I’ll pedantically note that for Social Security survivor benefit circumstances it is possible for a man to leave more than one widow.

      #3 Mia Farrow and #1 Nancy (still alive at 100) never remarried so… i hope their financial managers were on top of that windfall.
