On May 7, 1997, two years after his remarriage, Kerry publicly announced that he had requested an annulment from the Roman Catholic Church of his marriage to Thorne. Thorne vigorously opposed the annulment, but it was granted. Thorne has remarried and lives in Montana. She endorsed Kerry's 2004 presidential campaign, stating, "I think he is an immensely talented statesman, and I am 100 percent behind him". She did, however, express concern about protecting her privacy, and stated that she hoped the couple's daughters would not become too involved in public life.
