  • Rogan met his former model wife at a bar and they’ve been married for over a decade; they have two children, Lola and Rosy, and he’s also stepfather to Kayja Rose from Ditzel’s previous relationship
  • The controversial podcaster – who even sparked Donald Trump’s ire recently – and his wife are rarely spotted together, but he said she’s ‘easily as funny as me’ and also called her ‘very smart’

The Joe Rogan Experience may be America’s most-listened-to podcast with, as of March, 14.5 million followers on Spotify alone, per Forbes, but not much is known about the controversial host’s private life. It may surprise some to find out Rogan has a wife who he has been married to for 15 years – and even shares three kids with.

Rogan and Jessica Ditzel met at a bar and kept their relationship under wraps from the moment they got romantically involved. They never appear on the red carpet together and are hardly shown going about their day-to-day together.

Rogan is known for being the UFC’s go-to commentator and for his MAGA-loving audience, including former US president Donald Trump himself. He’s also known for his controversial comments: his new Netflix special Burn the Boats has received widespread criticism for his comments on transgender people and jokes about the Covid-19 pandemic. He also earned the ire of Trump after he endorsed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for president.
