Though the two have been married for decades, they have had a fair share of rough patches in the past. This includes a divorce in 1990, about 14 years after getting married. The split was, however, short-lived, and they ended up reconciling.

A year after the divorce, Sheindlin, and Jerry remarried and have remained together ever since. Speaking about this, Sheindlin reportedly once said that she missed Jerry during their separation and admitted that she liked the idea of being partnered up.
