Michael Gambino was the ex-husband of the American singer, songwriter, and actress, Jana Rae Kramer.
His Relationship
Michael was born in 1964 in Los Angeles, California. He had several mental issues growing up.
He was married to Jana Kramer, born on December 2, 1983, in Rochester Hills, Michigan.
He met Jana at a coffee shop in Los Angeles, California, for the first time.
At that time, Jana was only 19 years old, whereas Michael was thirty-five years old.
They dated and went out for two weeks and got married right after that.
Her family and friends criticized Jana for marrying a man who was seventeen years elder than her.
However, she was in love with him, so she tied the knot without thinking twice. They got married in the year 2004.
Michael's Abusive Behavior
Jana stated that Michael was soft-spoken, gentlemanly, and protective of her at the beginning.
She mentioned that he took good care of her during the first few weeks of their marriage and dating.
After that, Michael changed his color like a chameleon and started abusing her.

He had a mental problem that resulted in his unstable behavior and mood changes.
Unhealthy Marriage and Divorce
After the abusive and aggressive behavior of Michael, Jana was not able to save her marriage.
She filed for a divorce. She was not ready to file a divorce at the beginning.
The reason for her being so skeptical was because of her friends and family.
She thought that her friends and family would make a fool out of her for marrying a drunkard and horrible person. She used to hide her wounds and bruises with makeup.
In the year 2004, Michael choked her. She was unconscious and nearly bled to death.
This incident triggered her the most. After tolerating the severe abuse for a long time, she finally decided to file a divorce and file a police case for domestic abuse.
