Joe Rogan is a man of many talents. The former “Fear Factor” host is a podcaster, stand-up comedian, and also UFC commentator. Other than that, he is also a loving father and husband to his wife, Jessica Ditzel.
In a recent episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast, he welcomed a couple of his old friends and fellow comedians, Matt McCusker and Shane Gillis. Among the topics discussed on the show, was Matt McCusker’s marriage where Shane Gillis was the best man. Further, it is revealed that it was McCusker’s second marriage, which then lead to the topic of divorce.
Speaking about himself, in the event of a divorce, Rogan says, “Bro if my wife ever leaves, I’m buying a ranch and inviting everybody to live there … I’ll buy a giant chunk of land and I’ll build everybody a house.” Interestingly, Rogan was also able to shoe in an MMA reference here. I’ve seen guys get ‘HIT’ in divorce, ‘HIT’. Just like Leon Edwards in the head. Boom, get stiffened up,”
For those unfamiliar, Rogan is referring to Leon Edward’s head-kick KO of Kamaru Usman at UFC 278. After dominating the fight for large spells, Usman was caught off guard by the head kick in the last round. Thus, just like a divorce, the former welterweight champion lost his belt and everything else in the blink of an eye.
Who is Joe Rogan’s wife, Jessica Ditzel?
As mentioned previously, Joe Rogan is the husband of Jessica Ditzel. Notably, Jessica is the daughter of the late comedian Robert Schimmel and one of seven siblings. Born in Sugar Land, Texas, Jessica went to California State University and pursued a Bachelor’s in Arts and Technical Theater. According to sources, Ditzel also attended the University of Arizona pursuing Psychology and Cellular Biology
Prior to meeting Rogan, Ditzel was dating R&B group “H-Town,” star Keven ‘Dino’ Connor. As such, they even had a daughter together in 1996 by the name of Kayja Rose. In 2000, Jessica and Keven split ways before Keven passed away in a car accident with his girlfriend Teshya Rae Weisent. It was after this that Joe and Jessica crossed paths.
Reportedly, just like Rogan, Jessica is also a jack of all trades. As such Jessica was reportedly a model and also worked as a waitress, which was how she met Joe Rogan. Currently, Jessica is rumored to be a TV producer and a model for various agencies. However, despite her excellence in her field Rogan has decided to keep his relationship with his wife and family life private.
After getting married in 2009, the couple had two daughters, Rosy Rogan, born in 2008, and Lola Rogan born in 2010. Similar to his wife, he also likes to keep his daughters away from the limelight. Although fans have theorized about it often, Joe seems to be a responsible father and husband and likely has sound reasoning for it as well.
