Show had a brief marriage with Melissa Ann Piavis before he met his current wife. They married each other on Valentine’s Day, 1997, and Wight made his WWE debut on his second anniversary at St. Valentine’s Day Massacre 1999.
Reports say that the on-the-road life took a toll on their marriage. Big Show put his love of wrestling over everything else, as he won the WWF title in late 1999, only to lose it in 2000.
Their divorce was finalized on February 6, 2002.
Who is Big Show’s wife, Bess Katramados?
Big Show met his second wife Bess Katramados after a strained first marriage. Katramados, a former model, was born in Illinois in 1973.
