He referred to his 'wife' on Ellen


He was on Ellen last week and mentioned that his "wife" always had cats. Did they get married or does he just refer to her that way now?

Could be common law wife. Regardless, even if not married they live together. So even if not married by law, ya know...

Common Law marriage can be contracted in nine states, legally; California is not one of the nine states.
Jimmy & Wanda have lived in Los Angeles, California for many years (nearly all 28 years, they've been together). Clearly, Jimmy is using the term "my wife", in a colloquial sense or form.
