Due to Pickles' tendency to make things up, it's not known how many times he was actually married.  A search of internet records, shows twice: once in the late 60s, and once much later in life.

His last wife, Faline, is said to have been Kervorkianed by him when he read her a collection of Will Donkey's poems on her death bed.  After her demise, he wrote, and published, a loving obituary for her wherein he professed to have loved her even more than dinosaurs, King Kong, and Godzilla.

Up until his own death (by hex), he claimed to be in constant communication with Faline's spirit.
