Personal Life
Scott was married apparently three times. His first marriage was with Janice Mae Wynkoop, of Oakland, California. They met when he was a lifeguard at Lake Temescal, located in Oakland, California. The couple married in Reno, Nevada, in 1948, and had one child, Karen Judith Werschkul (born August 26, 1948), before divorcing in 1949. He was married to his Tarzan co-star, actress Vera Miles, from 1954 to 1959. He had one son with Miles – Michael, born 1957 – and possibly several other children.
For the last two decades of his life, Scott was a popular guest at film conventions and autograph shows.
