The couple took their a-year-dating relationship down the aisle by getting married in 1976. Diahnne's husband even adopted her daughter, Drena, whom she had with her first husband. Much details of Diahnnne's first marriage are not shared in the media. 

Diahnne's soon welcomed another child, a boy named Raphael in 1977, a year after Robert and Diahnne's wedding. 

Diahnne lived in a rented Bel Air house, for a time along with her husband and children including her pets and friends too. Their landlord sued her family for $10,000 after they moved, claiming the family "had soiled the house."

As it turns out, Diahnne's husband, Robert shared extra-marital affairs throughout their married life. In 1982, Robert was accused of cheating on his wife with an upcoming singer, Helena Springs. Both, Robert and Helena even shared a daughter and later, claimed her to be Robert's child. As per Daily Mail reports, the Deer Hunter actor impregnated the singer twice. During the first pregnancy, Helena aborted the baby without informing Diahnne's ex-husband. 

The second time, Helena wanted to keep the baby, but Robert threatened her to terminate her pregnancy.which she refused without second thoughts. Helena eventually gave birth to a baby girl on 1 July 1982, and the child was named Nina. Diahnne's ex-husband initially assumed the role of the biological father.

However, when Helena sued for maintenance ten years later in 1992, it turned out that he was not the father.

As for Diahnne's marriage, troubles were already started to show and later, and in 1988, she and her husband got separated, which was before the production of Robert's movie, Raging Bull.

When the pair maintained their side of silence for their split, a source claimed that Diahnne wanted to live a celebrity life hugging the spotlight, which Robert was strictly against the limelight.
