While at the helm of Getty Oil Company, J. Paul Getty also found the time to marry twice more during the 1930s. In 1932, he married silent film actress Ann Rork, who became the mother of his third and fourth sons, Eugene Paul Getty (who changed his name to John Paul Getty Jr. later in life) and Gordon Peter Getty. After his fourth marriage didn’t work out, Getty married for a fifth and final time to nightclub singer Louise “Teddy” Lynch, who was 20 years his junior, and it would end up being his longest marriage. Teddy gave birth to Getty’s youngest son Timothy.
