Many facets of Betty Gore’s life are resurfacing as Hulu’s “Candy” delves deeply into the horrifyingly real circumstances surrounding her murder in June 1980. She was horrified that she might be expecting her third child, and her young daughter was present when she was heinously murdered by Candance “Candy” Montgomery, who hacked her to death 41 times. Now that you know more about the two children Betty was forced to leave behind, including what they went through immediately afterward and where they are now, we’ve got you covered.
Who Are Betty Gore’s Children?
Betty welcomed two gorgeous children over the years after getting married to Allan Gore in January 1970: daughters Alisa and Bethany (named Christina and Valerie in the series, respectively). She allegedly experienced postpartum depression following the birth of her younger child in July 1979. Betty nevertheless made every effort to be a decent mother, wife, and primary school teacher. Nobody could have predicted, however, that the tension would cause her to allegedly engage in a violent altercation with Candy, her husband’s former girlfriend, and end her life while Bethany was in her cot.
Although the 11-month-old child was unhurt, she had been left alone for almost 13 hours before a few neighbours busted down the door at an out-of-town Allan’s request when he was unable to call Betty. One of the men who arrived first and saw the horrific crime scene told The Dallas Morning News in 2021, “A tiny old baby pushed its head up out of the cot, out of the baby bed.” “It started to cry (baby Bethany). It had remained there for practically the entire day without being fed. Alisa, on the other hand, was staying the night at Candy Montgomery’s house (together with her daughter), just like she had the night before.
Where Are Betty Gore’s Children Now?
Even though Allan Gore quickly remarried, he lost custody of Alisa and Bethany to the parents of his deceased wife, thus they practically grew up in Norwich, Kansas, alongside their mother. The girls are said to have grown distant from their father after moving away, but based on their social media posts, it appears they are still in contact and simply grateful to still have some interaction with him. Even though his daughters have made a few public posts on Facebook over the years, Allan has reacted on a few of them, demonstrating that the father and daughters are not actually hostile to one another.
In terms of where they are today, after graduating from Norwich High, Bethany went to Wichita State University while Alisa (who is now known as Lisa) attended Kansas State University. The senior Gore obtained an accounting bachelor’s degree. Therefore it comes as no surprise that Lisa transitioned from Accounting Manager to Business Controller in Newton, Kansas’ oil and energy sector.
The younger Gore, on the other hand, chose to follow in her mother’s career path and become a teacher. At the moment, Bethany works as the Coral Academy of Science’s Assistant Principal in Las Vegas, Nevada. The sisters are both contentedly married and have children. Jonn Harder, with whom Alisa shares a pig farm and two sons named Sam and Jacob, has become her life partner. As this is happening, Bethany has built a happy family with Chad Mickey and their three kids, Henry, Josie, and Betty.
