Corinne Lévesque

Corinne Lévesque (born November 10, 1943 in Alma, Quebec - died October 19, 2005), born Corinne Côté, was the second wife of the late Quebec Premier, René Lévesque.

Before they were married in 1978, Corinne was employed as René's secretary. Despite being the wife of a beloved political leader, she kept a low profile after their marriage; some believe because of embarrassment over marrying her employer. Corinne was diagnosed with throat cancer in the summer of 2005 and died on October 19, 2005 in Montreal.
