Billy Gunn's wife, Paula Heaney-Sopp, is an asset to her husband and her stepsons in that she highlights their accomplishments online. The fur mama has a knack for creating entertaining content.
Paula Heaney-Sopp is the second wife of retired wrestler Billy Gunn. She devotes her growing online platforms to promoting her spouse's and his children's careers. She rarely gives out information about her life beyond her fondness for animals.

After a Medical Crisis, Paula Heaney-Sopp Apologized for Her Lack of Content
Wrestling in the WWE, WWF, and AEW is as much a sport as it is a soap opera with a set of characters with complex storylines. Many wrestlers' significant others become part of that story ― if only outside the ring.
For Ricochet, it is ring announcer Samantha Irvin; Hulk Hogan has Sky Daily; and The Big Show demonstrates another side of his larger-than-life persona with his wife, Bess Katramados. Paula and Billy have authentically shared their lives on social media.
On Twitter, she identifies as "Just a girl and her pups, supporting @AEWonTBS @realbillygunn @theaustingunn @coltengunn @gunn_club." Her feed comprises tweets and retweets related to her "boys."
While she has occasionally appeared on her hubby's Instagram grid, her platform of choice is TikTok. After Paula had an emergency gallbladder removal, she was apologetic for the decline in TikToks in a post in August 2021.
Paula expanded their family on December 23, 2021.
In the update hashtagged "#nofilters #byebyegallbladder #realproblems," the brunette also explained from her bed how busy "the boys" have been and asked fans to keep sharing suggestions for TikToks, promising that she is still watching.
A Brief Look Into Billy Gunn's Relationship With His Wife, Paula Heaney-Sopp
With her husband's retirement, Paula, who still holds an undisclosed job, has joked about how her spouse lies about her workplace and needs something to keep him busy.
The wrestler, in turn, has grumbled how all the animals in the house, including their pet iguana, have turned to her. In a video where she kisses the reptile on her shoulder as she sits in front of a computer, she exclaims, "Us girls stick together."
In a 2023 interview, Billy demonstrated how invested his wife is in his wellbeing when talking about how she "gets mad" at him because he "does not do anything" besides work and working out when in the UK. She is likewise supportive of his sobriety.
The Gunn Children
Paula expanded their family on December 23, 2021, when she gifted him a Morkie named Roman. A few days later, she shared an exasperated tok with her husband, carrying the dog around like a newborn on his chest. He exclaims:
"He's a baby; what do you want me to do?"
After his divorce from Tina Sopp, the primary residential responsibility of their two children was awarded to her. The children have posted tributes to their mother on her birthday and Mother's Day.
