([[Scattered]]) | ||
Due to William Adama's commitments to the [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]], Adama raised both children by herself. The strain of William's absence and his committment to the Colonial Fleet caused the Adamas' eventual divorce. | |||
Adama suffered mood swings that upset the others in her family, according to her oldest son, [[Lee Adama|Lee]]. Later drinking binges after the divorce prevented Adama from fulfilling (and later apologizing for) promises she failed to keep. Lee Adama believed that, while his father loved her mother, the reverse was not true ([[A Day in the Life]]). | |||
Adama and her husband had little contact since their divorce. At the time of the [[Cylon Attack]], Lee Adama tells his father that she was getting married ([[Miniseries]]). | |||
Her ex-husband and son believe that Carolanne Adama perished in the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|Cylon attack]]. William Adama takes the occasion of his wedding anniversary each year to recollect his late wife's memory ([[A Day in the Life]]). | |||

In the second season episode "[[Scattered]]", during a flashback to William Adama and Saul Tigh's days aboard a tramp freighter, Tigh refers to Adama's "new wife" as "Anne", leading to speculation that William had divorced and remarried by the time he rejoined the fleet. This speculation was put to rest with the third season episode "[[The Passage]]", where William Adama's wife was referred to as "Carolanne" for the first time. | ||
