Stephanie Nassar (born Stephanie Anderson, via Women’s Health) married Larry Nassar in 1996. She graduated from Michigan State University and later from the University of Detroit with a graduate degree from its physician assistant program. Larry Nassar also graduated from Michigan State in 1985 and operated a clinic and gymnastics club affiliated with the school. During this time, he also served as medical staff for USA Gymnastics, according to The Sun. Little is known about how much or how little Stephanie Nassar was aware of her husband’s behavior.
What is known is that Larry and Stephanie Nassar maintained a friendship with the parents of one of Larry Nassar’s alleged victims, according to NPR. Two of Larry Nassar’s accusers were also at Larry and Stephanie Nassar’s wedding in 1996, as The Sun goes on to explain. The Nassar household seemed normal, and on Sundays, Stephanie Nassar and Kyle Stephens’ mother cooked dinner together for the two families, as one of Larry Nassar’s accusers, Kyle Stephens (pictured), remembered to NPR. Stephens later alleged that her father took his own life when the extent of his daughter’s abuse was uncovered, based on reporting from Reuters.
