Steve Austin’s Stone Cold Bio (Age)
The retired professional wrestler was born in Austin, Texas on December 18, 1964. His parents, James Anderson and Beverly Anderson, named him Steve Anderson after he was born. However, the couple divorced when Steve was about a year old.
After the separation, Steve’s mother moved to Victoria, Texas, where she later married a man named Ken Williams in 1968. Raising her son without his biological father was less difficult for Beverly, as her second husband, Ken, adopted Austin as her his own son.
Stone Cold is a brother of Kevin (younger brother), Scott (younger brother), Jeff (younger brother) and Jennifer (sister). They are very encouraging and proud of their brother’s career and accomplishments so far.
Austin had a high school education at Edna High School, located in the community where he was raised. After graduating from high school, he received a football scholarship to Wharton County Junior College, after which he received a full scholarship to study at the University of North Texas.
The Texas-born wrestling star legally changed his real name – Steven Williams – to his wrestling name Steve Austin in 2007, as reported in the Wrestling Observer newsletter.
His family: wife and daughter
There’s no doubt that the king of 1997, 1998, and 2001 Royal Rumbles has achieved an enviable level of success in his wrestling career. However, a look at the retired wrestler’s relationship with women shows he had some miserable marital experiences that saw him tie the knot four times.
Austin’s first love is a pretty woman named Kathryn Burrhus. Both men began attending high school and maintained their romantic relationship while in school. On November 24, 1990, the former wrestler sealed his love for Burrhus by exchanging marriage vows to him in the presence of their families, friends and loved ones.
Just two years after their wedding, the couples’ love fizzled out after Kathryn discovered that Stone Cold Steve Austin was romantically involved with Jeanie Clarke. The two called it quits and then called off their marriage on August 7, 1992.
Shortly after the separation, the veteran wrestler went on to marry Jeanie Clarke. They married the same year, on December 18, 1992 to be precise, and their union gave birth to three adorable daughters: Stephanie Williams (born in 1991), Loren William (born in 1994) and Cassidy Williams (born in 1996). He also adopted Jeanie’s daughter (Jade Adams) from her previous marriage to Chris Adams and became a father figure to her. Three years after the arrival of their last child, Austin and Clarke separated and later divorced on May 10, 1999.
His search for the right woman led him to the wrestling circle, where he fell in love with a wrestling valet named Debra Marshall. The two men were married on September 13, 2000 and divorced on February 5, 2003.
Stone Cold Steve Austin got married to his current wife, Kristin Austin, in late 2009. Since marrying his fourth wife, both spouses have been doing well. Although he divides his time between California and Tilden, Marina Del Rey and Texas, he has never shown any sign of leaving his Kristin to another woman in the world.
The retired wrestler’s second wife, JeanieClarke, is popularly known as Lady Blossom. She was born on April 4, 1959 in Brentwood, UK and retired as a professional wrestling manager and author.
