Jeff Hardy's Wife Beth Britt Was by His Side in Both Sorrow & Joy
Beth Britt has been a consistent and supportive presence in Jeff Hardy's life and weathered many storms with the "troubled" wrestler. Their love story began in the late '90s, followed by marriage and children in the 2010s and a love song.
Beth Britt has remained at Jeff Hardy's side for over two decades. In their time together, the couple welcomed two children, adopted several furry companions, and led a fulfilling family life. Throughout his WWE career, Jeff has rarely forgotten to credit his wife as his support structure that stood firm through thick and thin.
And the couple has indeed faced plenty of challenges, including losing their home to a fire, Jeff's substance abuse, and an alleged domestic violence incident. Despite it all, their bond grows stronger, and they both continue to celebrate their love for each other.
Beth Britt Met Jeff at a Bar
Beth, primarily recognized as Jeff Hardy's wife, was born in 1978. When she celebrated her 40th birthday in April 2018, she shared a snap of a note her husband left on their door, which read, "Lordy, Lordy, Looking HOTTT for 40! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Bestie!! Love You, Beth!" Alongside the photo, she cheekily captioned:
"My BFF is better than yours."
Little is known about Beth's background, but she met Jeff in 1999 at a bar in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Their romance ensued in the following 12 years until they tied the knot in 2011. It's unknown when they started expanding their family, but the couple welcomed two daughters Jeff affectionately calls his Hardy girls. They are Nera Quinn and Ruby Claire.
Beth has an active social media presence. On her Instagram bio, among the labels "Wife of Jeff" and "Mother of Ruby Claire & Nera Quinn," she also describes herself as a sister, a music lover, and a paranormal enthusiast. As of 2016, the family of four lived in Cameron, North Carolina — Jeff's hometown.
Beth and Jeff's House Burned Down
It happened in March 2008, as Britt's brother-in-law, Matt, revealed via his MySpace page. He detailed the events of the tragic afternoon, recalling that he was preparing to leave for a flight when he noticed smoke coming from his brother's house.
Matt initially thought Jeff was burning trash or a brush pile, but upon assessing the volume of the smoke, he decided to go and check. Alas, he found the house engulfed in flames. In a frantic panic, he rushed to break down the front door, fearing his brother and sister-in-law were burning inside.
Thankfully, they weren't home but were devastated to have lost everything and to find that their dog, Jack, had died in the fire. However, that wasn't the end of their troubles. In 2019, when Jeff was apprehended for DUI, police noticed "dried blood" on his nose.
When asked what happened, he explained it was from a fight with his wife; however, the matter wasn't investigated in detail. Regardless, Beth remained caring and protective over Jeff. She once remarked about having to take him to the hospital "so many times," given his chosen career.
In 2013, she and one of their daughters were there to cheer him on as he achieved what he felt was his most significant world title: the World Championship at Bound for Glory. But apart from a notable career in wrestling and music, Jeff felt his wife and children completed his life. He even wrote a love song called "1 or 100" in Beth's honor.
Jeff Hardy's Wife Is Happy with Where He Is Now in His Life
In 2022, Jeff was suspended by AEW following his third charge for DUI in a decade that June. The company stated he would be allowed back after completing his treatment and maintaining his sobriety. A few months later, Beth was pleased with his efforts, as Matt revealed that she was "super happy with his progress and where he’s at in life."
The year before, news broke that Jeff had been released by WWE (leaving colleagues such as Seth Rollins, Dolph Ziggler, and Brock Lesnar) after he declined to go to rehab as offered by the company. In response to the reports, Beth wrote on Twitter, assuring fans that Jeff was "good."
