Do we know if she was married before she married Senator Inouye?

Do we know if she was married before she married Senator Inouye? There is mention of a daughter being a flower girl at their wedding, but no mention of a previous marriage or non-marital relationship. 2603:800C:3A40:6400:6867:3269:5C9A:C802 (talk) 21:42, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sansei or Nisei?
