Gorgon married Swedish-born Brita Ingegerd Olaisson in April of 1963, whom he met while touring. The marriage lasted a decade, until 1973, but the former couple welcomed two children during the union — Fred and Ingrid. According to his official Wikipedia page, infidelity amid touring, along with the difficulties of a long-distance relationship, contributed to the marriage ending.
According to USA Today, his 1967 hit “For Lovin’ Me,” with “dismissive” lyrics, was something he eventually couldn’t listen to anymore. “It was an embarrassment to my wife at the time,” he said during in his 2020 documentary If You Could Read My Mind.
