“I’ll never be able to thank her enough for standing by my side through my terrible health crisis in 2017. She never left my side! And for that, I will always be grateful.”
The two briefly separated once before in 2022, but they reconciled a few months later.
“We both are working on different projects at the current time and it becomes difficult with my schedule and her schedule to make this work,” he said of their split. “I wish her the best of luck with her projects and I know that she supports mine.”
This was Ric‘s fifth marriage, following marriages to Leslie Goodman, Elizabeth Harrell, Tiffany VanDemark and Jaqueline Beems before getting married to Wendy in 2018.
Ric has four children, two with Leslie Goodman and two with Elizabeth Harrell.
