Meet Adelfa Marr, Manny Montana’s Wife Who Loves to Help Others Improve Their Lives

Adelfa Marr’s husband, Manny Montana, has been in the eye of the storm after his “Good Girls” co-star Retta indirectly blamed him for the show’s cancelation.

In late July 2022, Retta appeared on “Live with Kelly and Ryan” to share why “Good Girls” was canceled after four seasons, and she said one person “ruined it” for everyone. It is essential to remark that Montana allegedly refused to take a pay cut for season five.

He and Christina Hendricks supposedly had an unhealthy relationship, which might have influenced his decision. Montana has not addressed the topic, but people have been wondering about his personal life and wife, Adelfa Marr.

WHO IS ADELFA MARR?

Although Adelfa Marr is married to an up-and-coming Hollywood actor, she avoids attracting media attention and shares little-to-no information about her personal life with the public.

Manny Montana’s wife is an only child born on August 3. She describes herself on her Instagram account as a mental health advocate and coach who speaks two languages, English and Spanish (her first language).

Most information about Marr comes from her Instagram. Besides loving jewelry, sneakers, and fashion, cooking is her favorite hobby as she would cook everything and share it with everyone.

She is an activist and outspoken about racism and feminism. However, the project Marr is probably proudest of is her self-titled website, where she offers online sessions to help others practice self-care and live healthier lives.

Marr’s website states that she has a background in psychology and a deep interest in spirituality, so she created her coaching method to help her clients find happiness.

It all started as her journey to healing from anxiety, depression, and trauma due to a past assault. Eventually, Adelfa Marr discovered ways to be at peace with her life and grow into her “emotional awareness and intelligence.”
