Marlowe Says Sorry

I'm sorry for the mistake today. Clearly, Liliane is Larissa's wife.

Forgiven Chris.

In case you didn’t know, the 2016 Olympics is Chris’ 7th Olympic stint with NBC.

Netizens React

The @NBCOlympics beach volleyball commentator just referred to Larissa França's wife, Liliane Maestrini, as Larissa's 'husband.' SERIOUSLY.

Pretty sure when two women are married, one doesn't become the "husband"…. #LarissaFranca #Rio2016 #RioOlympics2016
