* ''Series/MonarchLegacyOfMonsters'': It's revealed that' WellIntentionedExtremist Bill Randa lost his wife [[Characters/MonsterVerseMonarch Keiko]] to monsters a decade prior to the events of ''Film/KongSkullIsland', and implies that it was part of the reason why his movie self lost the idealism that his much younger series self portrays [[spoiler:-- the cruel and tragic irony being that Keiko [[ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated wasn't really dead]], and she survived inside Axis Mundi's time dilation to the 21st century, but Bill never found out before his violent and untimely death in the movie]].

** The sisters' grandfather Alan was this to grandmother Penny. He was killed by a warlock and the death caused Penny to fly into a blind rage and become a cold demon hunter. She also became incredibly bitter towards men, getting engaged five more times and marrying three of them.

* Inverted in a ''Series/ThatMitchellAndWebbLook'' sketch involving a parody of the film ''Film/{{Rebecca}}''. The eponymous Rebecca arrives at her new husband's house only to find out he is obsessed with preserving everything in the house for his ''second'' wife.

* ''Series/{{Forever|2024}}'': Abigail. Henry was with her for forty years, and at the start of the series she's been gone for almost thirty.

** Claire Taylor, the late wife of Mac Taylor, [[DeathByOriginStory who died on 9/11.]] He not only still wears his wedding ring for more than 3 years, he still has insomnia so bad that he won't go home to try to sleep in his empty apartment for even longer than that. He's still so hung up on her after 5 years that he accidentally calls his girlfriend by Claire's name... during an argument about him not telling his team that they're dating. When he finally gets serious about someone else, it's1 more than 10 years after Claire's death, AND it's the sister of a partner who'd been killed in the line of duty, so she gets where he's coming from.
