Dita Von Teese’s Husband:

In her long life, Dita Von Teese has been in relationships with a number of men. Marilyn Manson was her most famous and romantic connection. Manson is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actor, painter, and writer best known as the main singer of the band of the same name, “Marilyn Manson.” He had been a long-time admirer of hers and even a member of her website.

They originally met when he invited her to dance in one of his music videos, and they married on Manson’s 32nd birthday, in 2001. On March 22, 2004, almost three years after they began dating, Manson proposed to her with a 1930s 7-carat (1.4 g) European round-cut diamond engagement ring. They married a year later, on November 28, 2005, in a private, non-denominational ceremony at their house, followed by a large wedding on December 3 at Castle Gurteen De la Poer in Ireland, which was featured in Vogue.

On December 29, 2006, less than a year after their marriage, Von Teese filed for divorce from Manson, citing “irreconcilable disagreements.” Teese realized it wasn’t a smart option after 7 years together and a year married since she wasn’t supportive of his partying or his relationship with another girl.

Teese began dating graphic designer Adam Rajcevich after her divorce from Manson lasted years. They have been together since 2014. Mark Mahoney, Peter Sarsgaard, Mike Ness, Louis-Marie de Castelbajac, and Theo Hutchcraft are among her other boyfriends.
