Matt Benning wife Janelle Benning has been married since July 23, 2018. Matt and Janelle had their second baby boy recently in the first week of August.
The ice hockey star and his longtime partner had their first big trip to Edmonton as a family of four. Their journey also brought back memories of their time together at St. Albert High School. Their romance began as high school sweethearts and they tied the knot to stay forever now.

Benning’s career as an ice hockey winger is steadily on the rise, as his offense this season earned him time on the second power-play unit in Sunday’s game against the Sabres, as reported by CBS Sports.
