Before his relationship with Deanna, Rick had already been married twice. His first marriage to Kim Harrison lasted from 1982 to 1987, and they had two sons. However, their relationship occurred long before he made a name for himself, so little is known about Kim or why they ended their union.

Less than a year later, he met his second wife, Tracy Harrison. The former couple welcomed a son and were married for 25 years before calling it quits in 2011. Little is known about Deanna's previous relationships; however, she is a mother to three daughters. Rick said:

"It's perfect symmetry. I've got three boys. She's got three girls. We're basically the 'Brady Bunch.'"

Deanna Burditt's Ex-husband Cited Irreconcilable Differences as the Cause of Their Divorce

In July 2020, Deanna's ex-husband filed for divorce and cited "irreconcilable differences" as the cause. Rick Harrison added that the former couple's "tastes, mental dispositions, views, likes, and dislikes" were no longer aligned, causing them to become "incompatible in marriage." However, their decision to part ways was mutual, and Rick shared:

"I got three great daughters out of it."

Deanna, a paralegal, initially sought alimony following her divorce from Rick, but the ex-couple, who did not welcome any kids together, reached a settlement agreement in September 2020.
