Samantha Speno’s Marriage and Divorce

Theirs seemed to be love at first sight, which started with a conversation at a bar. Orton, who had a broken leg probably went to take a timeout and have a drink, hopped towards her to start a conversation. He called her up for a date the very next day having collected her number the previous day. They got engaged in 2005, were married on 21 September 2007 and welcomed a daughter, Alanna Marie Orton on July 12, 2008.

Neither of them cheated, and there was no report of domestic violence, however, Orton had to stay away from the house for many days because of his job. Sam, consequently, had to be in the house all alone for most of the time and this caused cracks in the marriage which in turn led to their separation. They decided to call it quits after five years. Speno filed for a divorce in 2012 citing irretrievably broken marriage. They got separated officially in June 2013.

Their divorce proceedings were smooth as they separated as friends and have remained in good terms. Speno got custody of their child with unlimited visitation rights for Orton. As child support, Orton paid $4,500 per month to Speno. She also got the house they lived in, her $99,000 engagement ring and $645 000 in her bank account.

To further [prove that they are still friends, they share pictures taken together during birthdays and holidays on social media all the time. Though it’s been some years since their separation there have not been any rumors of Speno dating another man. She once stated that she is planning to give the property that she got through the divorce to her daughter. Could this mean she has no plan of getting married in the future?

Randy on his part has since moved on. He started a romantic relationship with his second wife Kim in 2014 and got married a second time in November 2015. Kessler was a WWE viewer and a great fan of Randybefore their marriage.
