According to an IMDb biography, Swit married fellow actor Dennis Holahan in 1983. The UPI archives have the text of the couple’s original wedding announcement from December of that year, which says they met while filming an episode of M*A*S*H and hopped a flight to Egypt for their honeymoon.

The wedding was a small, intimate one, according to the announcement. Swit’s spokeswoman at the time, Dawn Davis, called it a “small church ceremony.” The short rundown revealed that a reception took place in Beverly Hills and was attended by “a number of celebrities.” It also shared that Swit and Holahan planned to call the Hollywood Hills their home.

According to CBC, Swit was divorced from Holahan at the time of her death. The outlet’s report on her passing says she and her husband split in 1995.

Swit did not have any known children, and it is not immediately clear where her assets will go. According to the Hindustan Times, the TV star’s net worth was around $4 million at the time of her death. At the time of publishing, public information about her will could not be found.

A USA Today report details the touching tributes Swit’s M*A*S*H costars released in her honor. Alan Alda, who portrayed the character known by the nickname “Hawkeye,” penned an X post remembering the effort Swit put into her role.

“She worked hard In showing the writing staff how they could turn the character from a one joke sexist stereotype into a real person — with real feelings and ambitions. We celebrated the day the script came out listing her character not as Hot Lips, but as Margaret. Loretta made the most of her time here,” he wrote.
