Amid the buzz around the Knockout round preps, here's a look at mega mentor, Joe Walsh's other love besides singing, his wife, Marjorie Bach.

Who is Marjorie Bach, Joe Walsh's wife?

Marjorie Bach is a businesswoman and philanthropist, best known as the wife of Eagles guitarist, Joe Walsh and the younger sister of actress, Barbara Bach. Following a breast cancer diagnosis in 2013, Marjorie became involved with the Simms Mann UCLA Center for Integrative Oncology, later serving on its advisory board. She and her husband, Joe Walsh, are both involved in activism related to recovery from alcohol and drug addiction. Besides her career and familial duties, Marjorie is also an animal enthusiast who enjoys spending time with her horses.

Joe Walsh and Marjorie Bach's chance meeting felt like magic to him

Joe Walsh and Marjorie Bach's love story began when they first met in the 1970s at the house of The Beatles drummer, Ringo Starr and his wife, Barbara Bach. Barbara is Marjorie's sister, and Joe became good friends with Ringo while working on The Old Wave album with him. Though Marjorie smote Joe Walsh at their very first encounter, it took many years before they became romantically involved. Their relationship developed years later after they reconnected. During a July 2025 interview with PEOPLE, Joe opened up about his first meeting with his wife, and shared that it took just three minutes for him to be in love with Marjorie. He mentioned:

"I was at [Ringo and Barbara's] house, and Barbara's little sister stopped by for three minutes, and I was in love with Barbara's sister from then on."

When did Joe Walsh and Marjorie Bach's love story start?

Joe Walsh and Marjorie Bach's love story began when they reconnected at Ringo Starr's Los Angeles home, many years after their first introduction. Joe recalled that they shared a warm hug, and after that, Marjorie asked him if he 'felt that' and he answered affirmatively. He knew right then that Marjorie was the love of his life. He also joked that he felt dating Marjorie would be incestuous, since her elder sister, Barbara, and her brother-in-law, Ringo Starr, were like siblings to him. Recalling thinking that Ringo and Barbara might rebuke him for getting romantically involved with Marjorie, Joe told PEOPLE:

"Many, many years later, I saw Marjorie again and we hugged each other. She said, 'Did you feel that?' And I said, 'Yeah.' And Marjorie has been the love of my life. After many years of thinking, 'Well this...would this be incest or how this...would this work and what would Rich and Barb kill me? Would they kill me?'"
