Adam Carolla's ex-wife, Lynette Paradise, is a renowned actress and prominent entrepreneur. Her business career has taken her to new height of success.
She gained popularity for her performance as Mighty Carson, Art Player, on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. Lynette, on the other hand, became well-known after she wed Adam Carolla.
Childhood And Wiki
On August 15, 1969, Lynette Helen Paradise, the former wife of actor Adam Carolla, was born to a fashion designer mother and a Korean war veteran father who later turned into an advertising director. She is László Görög's step-granddaughter-in-law.
Lynette is descended from a wealthy family. Richard Alan Paradise (the father) and Helen Stella Paradise (the mother), who parted in 1989 but remained close friends, had only one child, Lynette. Since Lynette is the only child of her parents, she doesn't have any siblings.
In southern California, her father worked as the advertising director for a television stadium after serving in the Korean War.
Her mother; however, worked as both a self-defense trainer and a fashion designer. She won the Ohio Women's Taekwondo Championship, which is interesting.
Career History
The entrepreneur from Ohio started her performing career when she was just seven years old as she developed a passion for becoming successful at an early age.
She joined SAG/AFTRA before acting in TV roles and advertisements, including Mighty Carson Art Player on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson.
Lynette eventually grew tired of her acting job. She then changed her attention to the television industry on the advice of her father.
Later, she made the transition to show business and had appearances on Third Rock from The Sun, Roseanne, and That 70's Show.
After working as an affiliate sales for major corporations like New World Entertainment and the Carsey Werner Company, her career took a different direction.
She quickly became well-known for running her own parenting podcast, Crying Out Loud. The program she co-created with Stephanie Wilder-Taylor is one of the top 5 family podcasts on iTunes.
The 49-year-old is currently Carolla Drinks' co-founder, CEO, and brand ambassador. The business makes and distributes "Endless Wrath IPA."
Married Life With Adam Carolla
The actress-turned-entrepreneur met Adam while they were both working at New World Entertainment. Adam was a rising comic at the time who became well-known thanks to the Loveline podcast.
Adam Carolla and Lynette Paradise easily clicked after the meeting. The two might have developed feelings for one another while employed by the same company. Then on September 28, 2002, the couple finally exchanged wedding vows after six years of dating.
Natalia Carolla and Santino "Sonny" Carolla, who were born on June 7, 2006, are twins that Lynette Paradise and Adam Carolla welcomed during the course of their almost 20-year marriage.
The family eventually got a dog, which they have given the name Phill. The family of four was living happily until Adam and Lynette decided to part ways.
Divorce With Adam Carolla
Lynette Paradise got divorced from her husband after 19 years of marriage. Adam opened up about his separation on his podcast, The Adam Carolla Show, just two days before Mother's Day in 2021.
He started off the show with the 'sad personal news' regarding their split. He said,
"We're going to start the show with some sad personal news: Lynette and I are getting divorced. It's not something that I wanted to get or to do, I'm a product of divorce, Lynette's a product of divorce… No one ever signs up to get divorced."
He said that they had been separated for a few months and are keeping their kids as their priority. He further revealed that the reason for their divorce is the differences that they had as two different individuals with different sets of philosophies.
The couple, who had been together for 25-long years, parted amicably and are now co-parenting their children.
Around 18 months after announcing the separation, Adam was found in a new relationship. He began dating stand-up comedian Crystal Marie Denha.
According to a source, the couple had been together for a few months when their dating news came to light.
Unlike him, there is no information on Lynette Paradise's new relationship or boyfriend.
