WWE superstars spend the majority of their time on the road. Meaning they spend most of their time on the road, far from their loved ones. It’s a physically demanding profession and can take a toll on the physical and mental health of the individual. There have been instances where this has affected their families too.
A lot of superstars have turbulent relationships, which could have been caused by the years of abuse they’ve endured. Some are blessed with great family lives. Here is a look at 10 superstars who’ve been married three or more times.
10. Ric Flair
Arguably the most decorated Superstar on this list. The 16-time world champion tied the knot for the 5th time in 2018. Few weeks prior to which he was battling for his life. Ric Flair has often had quite a colorful personality and life both on screen and in person.
He’s had quite the styling and profiling life. Flair married Leslie Goodman in 1971 and separated in ’83. He married Elizabeth Harrell the same year as his divorce from Leslie. That lasted 23 years before the couple divorced in 2006.
He followed that up with wed locks to Tiffany VanDemark (’06-’09) and Jackie Beems (’09-’14) could only last three and five years respectively.
9. Edge
They call Edge the Rated-R Superstar for sound reasons. He’s been involved in some of the company’s racy moments, including a ‘live-s*x’ segment with WWE Hall of Famer Lita. His early retirement saddened many, which made his return one of the most spectacular events that ever happened.
He married Alannah Morley in 2000, and split in 2004. He then married Lisa Ortiz in October 2004, but this marriage fell apart due to the whole Lita fiasco. Ending the marriage in a year. In 2016, he married fellow Hall of Famer and former Diva Beth Phoenix. The couple has two daughters, Lyric and Ruby.
8. The Undertaker
There is no WWE without The Undertaker. For three decades, he was the standard, the yardstick, of the company. Taker put his body on the line and stayed in supernatural character long enough for many early fans to believe that he was actually a dead man walking.
He tied the knot with Jodi Lynn, in 1989. After a decade and a son together the couple parted ways. He then married Sara in 2000. Sara did have some screen time, even a win over DDP, but that only lasted seven years. After that, he’s been married to former WWE superstar Michelle McCool since 2010.
7. Jerry Lawler
The King has been the voice of WWE for a very long time. Jerry Lawler’s pairing with Jim Ross and Michael Cole made matches that much more entertaining. His married life was unfortunately not so entertaining.
He married Kay Lawler in 1971, they divorced in 1978 for reasons unknown. Paula Lawler happened in 1982, but after about nine years, they went apart. His third marriage to Stacy Carter barely lasted a couple of years. Stacy was a WWE Diva going by the ring name ‘The Kat’.
In 2016 Lawler and his girlfriend accused each other of domestic violence and ended up getting arrested. Charges were later dropped.
6. Batista
Dave Batista is one of the few WWE superstars to have successfully transcended into an active Hollywood career. With a turbulent upbringing involving murders, poverty, and stolen cars, he found solace in bodybuilding and then pro-wrestling.
He’s had his share of marriage too, he’s walked down the aisle thrice. First marrying Glenda Bautista in 1990. That lasted about 7 years. Angie Bautista in 1998; the relationship lasted till 2006. He married Sarah Jade in 2015 and the couple separated in 2019.

5. ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin
Steve Austin was easily the biggest name of the Attitude Era and the face of the company. The beer-drinking foul-mouthed Stone Cold Steve Austin was the biggest star of his time. The only 3-time Royal Rumble winner had a messed up private life that involved charges of domestic abuse.
Austin tied the knot four times, including with former WWE Diva Debra Marshall. He married Kathryn Burrhus in 1990, but the marriage lasted until 1992. His second marriage with Jeanie Clarke (1992–1999) and third with Debra Marshall (2000–2003) were short affairs. Austin married Kristin Feres in 2009, and the couple has been together ever since.

3. Bret Hart
Widely considered the best technical wrestler the company has ever seen Bret The Hitman Hart is also considered the safest in-ring worker. He remains in conversation for the greatest wrestler to lace up a pair of boots. After being part of the notorious Montreal Screwjob incident, one of the most skilled technical wrestlers in pro wrestling moved to WCW. However, his personal life wasn’t as technical as his in-ring abilities.
Hart’s first marriage was to Julie Smadu in 1982, and together they had four children over two decades. Unfortunately, they parted ways in 2002, which coincided with Hart’s severe stroke. In 2004, he got married to an Italian woman named Cinzia Rota, but their marriage ended after three years. Hart tied the knot again in 2010, this time with Stephanie Washington.
2. Sable

In 1993, Sable met professional wrestler Marc Mero, and they got married the following year. Mero introduced Sable to the wrestling world, but their marriage came to an end after a decade. Later on, Sable started dating Brock Lesnar, who is ten years younger than her, and they got married in 2006. The couple now has two sons, Turk and Duke, and are happily married.
1. Charlotte Flair
The Queen Charlotte Flair has emulated her father in many ways in the ring. Unfortunately, those similarities seemed to have followed her into her marriage life.
In 2010, Charlotte got married to her first partner Riki Johnson, but their marriage came to an end shortly after. She then tied the knot with TNA Superstar Bram in 2013, but the couple had to file for a divorce just a year later due to multiple incidents of domestic violence between them. Interestingly, the divorce was finalized in October 2015, which happened to be just a month after Charlotte was promoted to WWE’s main roster and contributed to the beginning of the ‘Divas Revolution.’ in 2022, Charlotte married AEW star Andrade, and they are still happily together.
