===Relationships and children=== [[File:Pete Rose (53391167418).jpg|thumb|upright=0.75|Rose in 2023]] Rose married Karolyn Englehardt on January 25, 1964. The couple had two children, daughter Fawn (born 1964) and son [[Pete Rose Jr.]] (born 1969). The marriage ended in divorce in 1980. In 1978, a paternity suit was filed naming Rose as the father of Morgan Erin Rubio. In a 1996 settlement of the lawsuit, Rose acknowledged that Rubio was his daughter.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140219073612/http://articles.philly.com/1996-11-24/news/25647120_1_mad-magazine-thrift-store-tv-spots Rose admits he is 18-year-old's father; Heard charged with stalking 'Homicide' actress].
