Who Is Jacy Nittolo's Ex-husband? Before Ray Liotta She Was Married to Film Producer Joseph Nittolo

Joseph Nittolo is Jacy Nittolo's ex-husband, with whom she welcomed four children. Following their separation, Jacy found love again with famous actor Ray Liotta. However, their love story ended when the actor unexpectedly died.

After many years of marriage, Jacy filed for divorce from her first husband, and it was finalized six months later, in 2017. By 2020, Jacy's late fiancé took to Instagram to announce their engagement.

Ray's sudden passing shocked many, as he had established himself as a beloved actor renowned for his roles in blockbusters such as "Goodfellas," "No Escape," and "Unlawful Entry." Since Ray's passing, Jacy has turned to Instagram to express her grief and has formed a bond with his daughter, finding solace in their shared loss.

Jacy Nittolo and Her Ex-husband Joseph Have Four Children

Before their divorce, Jacy and Joseph welcomed their kids, Dax, Chazzy, Jade, and Joey, ages 11 to 24. And while Jacy had moved on with the late famous actor, a romance blossomed between Joseph and a mystery woman.

Although the identity of Joseph's partner remains unknown, he often shares about their son, Lukas, whom they welcomed later on. In February 2021, Joseph posted one of the earliest pictures of his fifth child, capturing a snapshot of his youngest while peacefully sleeping.

In August 2022, Joseph celebrated Mother's Day by honoring his "Queen" and sharing a photo of her and their son splashing around in a pool. In part of his caption, Joseph expressed, "A mother & her child, and the beauty of creation. Together, we will share this day of Mother's Day with this beautiful product of God that we will cultivate together."

In August of that same year, the film producer delighted fans by sharing glimpses of his family's outdoor adventures, capturing precious moments of the trio's experiences. Joseph's children with Jacy also frequently appear on his page.

In November 2021, Joseph posed for the camera with all five children and his partner as they gathered to celebrate Lukas' birthday. The picture's caption read, "No words can properly express the feeling in my heart today!! Pure LOVE."

That same day, the film producer shared another photo that featured all his children and more family. In April 2022, Joseph and three of his sons, including Lukas, soaked up the sun as he posted a snap of them at the beach.

Jacy's children are regulars on her Instagram account as well. In November 2017, the family radiated happiness as they posed for a picture during Jacy's birthday celebration. "I am blessed and then some! Grateful everyday," the caption read in part.

That same year, the family of five celebrated Christmas together in matching pajamas and surrounded by gifts. In 2019, a year before her engagement to Ray, Jacy celebrated Mother's Day with her children and revealed, "They complete me."

After meeting Ray and they got engaged, the late actor turned to Instagram to share the news of their engagement on December 29, 2020. He posted a picture of him and Jacy that captured their beaming smiles as she rested her left hand on his chest, flaunting her sparkling diamond ring. "Christmas wishes do come true. I asked the love of my life to marry me, and thank God she said yes!!!" he captioned the post.

Jacy Nittolo Has a Tragic Life Story

Jacy lost her fiancé in 2022 after he unexpectedly died in his sleep while filming the movie "Dangerous Waters" in the Dominican Republic, his publicist said. Following his passing, it was revealed that Ray's cause of death had been respiratory insufficiency and acute heart failure.

Ray is survived by his fiancée and his daughter, whom he welcomed with his ex-wife. Martin Scorsese, who directed one of Ray's most well-known films, said:

"I'm absolutely shocked and devastated by the sudden, unexpected death of Ray Liotta. He was so uniquely gifted, so adventurous, so courageous as an actor."

Sadly, Ray Liotta's passing was not the only tragedy Jacy Nittolo had experienced. In 2014, her father, Stewart Woodman, passed away in jail after he was found guilty of murder and conspiracy in 1990. Jacy's uncle, Neil Woodman, was also later convicted of the same crimes.
