The Queen's Love Life: Unpacking Charlotte Flair's Three Marriages And Recent 2025 Divorce
The personal life of WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair is as dramatic and compelling as her in-ring career, often making as many headlines as her championship victories.

A Deep Dive into Charlotte Flair’s Three Marriages and Divorces
Charlotte Flair, born Ashley Fliehr, has been open about the challenges of her personal life, which has included three marriages that all ended in divorce. Each relationship took place at a different stage of her life, from before her wrestling debut to the height of her WWE superstardom. The intense scrutiny that comes with being the daughter of the legendary Ric Flair and a top-tier performer has amplified the details of her dating history.
1. Marriage to Riki Johnson (2010–2013)
Charlotte Flair's first marriage was to Riki Johnson, a relationship that predates her entry into professional wrestling. The couple married in May 2010 and divorced in February 2013.
This period of her life was tumultuous, and Flair later addressed the relationship in her autobiography, co-written with her father. The divorce came just as she was beginning her journey in the WWE developmental system, providing a challenging backdrop to the start of her in-ring career.
2. Marriage to Tom Latimer, aka Bram (2013–2015)
Shortly after her first divorce, Charlotte married English professional wrestler Thomas "Tom" Latimer, known to wrestling fans by his ring name Bram. The couple tied the knot in 2013, the same year she officially signed with WWE and began her training in NXT.
This marriage lasted for two years, ending in divorce in October 2015. Latimer, like Charlotte, was a professional wrestler, and the relationship occurred during the critical early stages of Charlotte's ascent to the main roster, which can often strain personal relationships due to the rigorous travel schedule and demands of the business.
3. Marriage to Manuel Alfonso Andrade Oropeza, aka Andrade El Idolo (2022–2024/2025)
Charlotte Flair and Andrade El Idolo began dating in 2019, a relationship that quickly became a fan favorite. They got engaged on January 1, 2020, and were married in a beautiful ceremony in Hacienda Mi Ranchito, Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico, in May 2022.
Their marriage represented a union of two wrestling dynasties, the Fliehrs and the Andrades. However, the pressures of the industry, particularly with Andrade's move to AEW and subsequent return to WWE, proved too much for the relationship to withstand. The couple quietly filed for divorce in mid-2024, with the finalization occurring in October 2024, and the news becoming public in early 2025.
The Aftermath: Andrade's Candid Comments and Charlotte's Future
The news of the divorce from Andrade El Idolo was a significant shock to the wrestling world, especially given the couple's public displays of affection and support. What has made the story particularly compelling is the candid and respectful way Andrade has addressed the split in 2025 interviews.
Speaking on the matter, Andrade took responsibility for the breakdown of the relationship, stating that they "started having some problems, and then came the divorce." He was quick to praise his ex-wife, referring to her as an "incredible woman" and a "great wife," emphasizing that there were no hard feelings and that they simply grew apart.
Andrade also clarified that the divorce was not the reason for his departure from AEW or his return to WWE, addressing speculation that had circulated among fans. He stated that the couple never attempted to reconcile after their split, confirming a clean break.
For Charlotte Flair, the divorce announcement coincided with a high point in her professional career: her victory at the Royal Rumble 2025. This timing has drawn parallels between her dramatic personal life and her on-screen persona as "The Queen" who overcomes all obstacles.
While fans have begun to speculate about Charlotte Flair's dating history and future love life following the divorce, she remains focused on her career, continuing her reign as one of the most dominant and polarizing figures in WWE. Her journey through three marriages, each ending in divorce, highlights the immense difficulty of balancing a demanding, public career with a private, personal life. The support from her family, including her father Ric Flair, continues to be a crucial element as she navigates this new chapter as a single, top-tier WWE Superstar.
