The Marley’s would have four children together during their marriage. For those of you keeping score… Bob had eight more children with eight different women not including Rita. Rita as well had another child as a result of an affair with another man during this time. Rumor has it that there are several other “unclaimed” or “forgotten” children of Bob Marley but to the best of our knowledge these are Bob Marley’s children and mothers.
