4. How many wives has Joe Rogan had?

As of 2022, Joe Rogan manages to have a happy marriage with his current wife Jessica Ditzel. Before he turned into a family man, here’s what we know about Joe Rogan’s previous relationship. 

Before Jessica Ditzel, Rogan dated Survivor star Jerri Manthey in 1997. It’s unclear how they met, but the two of them hooked up before both of them got their big breaks. Joe’s ex-girlfriend has appeared on three seasons of Survivor, including Survivor: All-Stars, The Australian Outback, and Heroes vs. Villains. 

Joe Rogan never married another woman but the reason for why they broke up was revealed during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show. 

Rogan admitted to cheating on Manthey by stating: “We used to have huge fights. We used to have the worst fights, cause I wanted to have sex with other chicks,” he said. “I did a bad thing, I learned my lesson; a couple times. Look, I hooked her up with one of my friends.”

5. What does Joe Rogan’s wife do? Where is Jessica Ditzel in 2022? 

For his part, Joe is a stand-up comedian, MMA commentator, podcast host, and businessman associated with Spotify. Joe also hosts a podcast called Rogan at 5 feet and 8 inches but even more famous is The Joe Rogan Experience which has helped him earn a net worth of $25 Million. Now, given just how much Rogan goes viral for his everyday opinions, this may come as a surprise: Jessica Ditzel is the mere opposite of Joe, being a truly private person!

In terms of where Jessica works, Jessica works on her husband’s popular podcast as a producer. She is very involved with the many aspects of the show, making sure Joe Rogan stays on point. Prior to this she worked as a cocktail waitress and eventually signed with modeling agency M Model Management in 2010. Her flawless looks worked to her advantage. According to Sidomax Entertainment, at the age of 35, Jessica used to work for a Korean brand known as Wholesome. 

So what does she do in her spare time? We simply do not know because Jessica does not have a huge social media presence. On Instagram, her account is private, so only those she adds to her profile are allowed to see her postings.

In her day-to-day life, she is the manager of Joe’s huge house. Mr and Mrs Rogan put down $14.4 million on a home on Lake Austin after Rogan constantly spoke about making the move on his The Joe Rogan Experience podcast. 

Only two years ago in 2020, he, Jessica Ditzel, and their children pulled up stakes and made the move to the new place that Jessica Ditzel calls home, which has eight bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. 

Their $14.4 million home is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood, and can call Sandra Bullock and haircare billionaire John Paul DeJoria their neighbors. Rogan can easily afford it since he had just signed a huge $100 million exclusive contract with Spotify so that figure may sound like a lot, but not for him. 

The couple also has a second and third home in the Bell Canyon area which Rogan and Ditzel have not given up as that is their main residence when they are in Los Angeles.

6. Is Joe Rogan currently married?

Although he has been vocal about his feelings against marriage, Rogan rarely mentions his family and never posts about them on social media. His thoughts on the institution make us question if Joe Rogan is currently married because, during one podcast episode, he even compared marriage to Russian Roulette. Because of divorce rates the man was wary (maybe because of his cheating habits). 

 “I’m married, I’m happy, don’t do it”, said the man married to Jessica Ditzel, a 46-year-old former model who was born on July 18, 1975 in Sugar Land, Texas. He is so against marriage which is understandable as comedians go to dark places very quickly. In addition we know that Rogan admitted to being unfaithful in the past having multiple affairs despite being in a relationship.  

7. Why did Joe Rogan get married despite being against it?

In 1997, Rogan was in a relationship with famous actress and reality star, Jerri Manthey. However, the couple broke up soon after dating because Rogan was always cheating on Jerri. 

In 2009, shortly after the birth of their first child Lola Rogan together in 2008, Rogan and Ditzel tied the knot. The man who said he would never get married gave an interview with the Palm Beach Post shortly after his nuptials. 

He said: “I had to [tie the knot]. Not really had to, but you know, she made a baby. [It’s] like ‘God alright, I’ll sign a silly legal contract.’ What she did was way more of a commitment”. 

Jessica Ditzel’s marriage to Joe Rogan in 2009 came as a surprise to many who had been following Rogan’s career because for years he complained about how marriage was unnecessary. For example, Marriage is dumb,” he told during a 2015 Rolling Stone interview, continued claiming he was still against it. 

So why did Joe Rogan get married despite being against it? “She lets me do whatever I do. That’s how we get along well”, explained Rogan. 

Also having his flesh and blood in the form of a child seemed to have changed his outlook. “I always describe having a baby as just like doing mushrooms,” Rogan said in a Palm Beach Post interview, “in that if you’ve never done it before, I can’t really describe it to you accurately.…There’s no way I could tell you how much you would love your child.”

Unsurprisingly, both Ditzel and Rogan welcomed their second child together, Rosy, in 2010. Somehow, given Rogan’s history, the wild man, though, appears to have tamed himself slightly, although he still dabbles in controversy. “You know what? Porn and strip clubs seem so different to me now. They’re not out. But they just don’t seem the same. Having kids just ruined it.”
