Canadian professional wrestler Adam Copeland, famously known as Edge, has been married three times throughout his life.
Copeland’s journey through marriage started with Alannah Morley, followed by Lisa Ortiz, and his current wife is Beth Phoenix, marking his third marriage.
If you are one of the devoted fans of the current AEW wrestler who eagerly wants to learn about all three of his wives and children, read this article to the end.
Adam Copeland’s first marriage to Alannah Morley lasted almost three years
Copeland and Morley first crossed paths in 1998. After approximately two years of being in a relationship, the duo exchanged vows in 2001 in an intimate ceremony surrounded by their close friends and family.

At that time, the wrestler was only 26 years old and just beginning his career. Subsequently, complications emerged in their relationship, and they divorced in March 2004. However, the former couple never revealed the reason behind their separation.
Soon after their split, Copeland entered into another relationship, while Morley remained single and did not remarry.
Adam Copeland cheated on his second wife Lisa Ortiz
The same year that Copeland divorced his first spouse, he married Ortiz on October 21, 2004. However, just a few months after their wedding, the wrestler had an extramarital affair with fellow wrestler Lita (Amy Dumas).
Likewise, at the time, Lita was in a relationship with Copeland’s close friend, Matt Hardy. This affair later became public knowledge in February 2005 and ultimately led to the end of his marriage to Ortiz. Their divorce was finalized on November 17, 2005.
After many years of being apart, Copeland revealed the details of his short-lived and tumultuous second marriage in his book Adam Copeland on Edge.

He stated, “At the time this was all taking place, the last thing that was on my mind was meeting someone else, but (just like the horseshit) you can’t control what life hands you. That’s when I met Lisa.”
The wrestler went on to explain that he had met Ortiz three years before they got married, but they were both in different relationships during that time. Their encounter was merely a casual greeting.
Likewise, Copeland described Ortiz as a beautiful mix of various nationalities, including Puerto Rican, Hawaiian, Chinese, German, and more.
He also recalled that his second wife entered his life during a challenging period and supported him through some of his most harrowing moments. He vividly expressed, “It was like she struck me in the heart with a love-filled hammer (yes, it’s a bit cheesy, but it felt too perfect not to use!).”
Copeland’s explanation of his second marriage shows that they shared a strong bond, but they both met at the wrong time.
Adam Copeland is in a content relationship with his third wife Beth Phoenix
Copeland and Phoenix began dating in 2010, shortly after Phoenix finalized her divorce from former WWE star Joey Knight. After being in a relationship for over five years, the couple exchanged vows on the wrestler’s 43rd birthday, which was on October 30, 2016.
The duo often express their love for each other on social media. For instance, on November 24, 2020, the wrestler posted a series of pictures with his wife, celebrating her birthday and sharing their special moments.
In the caption, he wrote, “Happy birthday to the woman who doubles as the rudder of the ship. The foundation that keeps the sometimes precarious tower of cards from crashing down. The woman who can slap the stupidness out of Randy Orton’s mouth (and that’s A LOT of stupid).”

Beyond their love, the couple consistently supports each other in all situations. Copeland showed his unwavering support for Phoenix in a post he shared on December 6, 2021. He wished his spouse the best for her farewell performance on that night’s #NXT event, NXTWarGames.
Likewise, the wrestler revealed that this was a job Phoenix never expected to do. However, with the help of wonderful partners and dedicated work, even during the challenges of the pandemic, she flourished, as she always did.
On the other hand, Phoenix also continuously shares pictures of her husband. For instance, on August 19, 2023, she posted the photo where she held Copeland’s hand and simply captioned, “I love you.”
Following the post, many of their friends and followers expressed their admiration for the couple. Gail Kim-Irvine commented, “Awwwww cutest couple of great humans,” while one of their fans stated, “My favorite couple in WWE. Love you both.”
As of now, Copeland and his spouse have been together for more than a decade, and with each passing year, their bond continues to strengthen.
Adam Copeland shares two children with his wife Beth Phoenix
Copeland and Phoenix welcomed both of their children before tying the knot. Their first daughter, Lyric Rose, was born on December 12, 2013, followed by their second daughter, Ruby Ever, on May 31, 2016.
The wrestler has frequently featured his daughters on his social media. On September 3, 2021, he posted a picture of himself hugging his daughters side by side.
In the accompanying caption, he wrote, “My world. These hugs make it REALLY hard to leave. Let the ones you love know you love ’em.”
Upon seeing the post, one person commented, “He’s a good dad,” with lots of red heart emoji, while another person chimed in, saying, “Such a great dad; how adorable! This reminds me to hug your own; tomorrow isn’t promised.”
Furthermore, on May 15, 2023, Phoenix shared a picture of one of their daughters with their pet and expressed that her children mean everything to her. She also emphasized that when she says children, it includes their pets, Odin & Miss Pickles.
