In addition to comedy and music, Rodney has also appeared on television as a member of the cast of the sitcom Rodney and in the 2008 film Beer for My Horses.
He and ex-wife Terri Carrington first met in college, started dating soon after, and married in 1993. They were married 18 years and have three sons, Zac, Sam and youngest George. The couple separated in 2010 and by 2012 they were officially divorced. The reason for the divorce isn’t known, but many speculate that it may have been Rodney’s long work hours and absences from home that strained the marriage. The speculation went on to say that Terri eventually got tired of being alone in the marriage and decided to leave.
divorce
The initial breakup hit Rodney hard because he always did his best as a family man and was a great father to his three sons. Once, while he was still working on his sitcom Rodney, the comedian left the show because he didn’t want to be away from his family. The two appear to have maintained a friendly relationship for the sake of their children. They also have equal custody of their children.
There has been no news on the couple’s dating life since their divorce. Rodney Carrington once mentioned to the media that he had tried dating some girls younger than himself, but found that the age difference and “New Age” demeanor resulted in a bad connection between him and the women . The comedian also struggled with his weight and post-divorce depression.
Even after many years of divorce, the comedian doesn’t seem to want to enter another relationship and is currently enjoying life as a single man. He said he enjoys not answering anyone, being able to do what he wants, go where he wants and spend his money how he wants. Rodney has also stated that he no longer wants to date anyone but a sweet nubile woman who has already found her life and is drama free. He concentrates most of his time on his children and his work. For her part, Terri is still single.
Wealth (income and earnings)
Terri Carrington is rumored to be worth around $1 million. However, this information is still under investigation as information about their income, expenses, assets and liabilities is difficult to obtain. Her ex-husband’s net worth is estimated at around $6 million. Suffice it to say that she has no financial problems at the moment because her ex-husband paid money for alimony and child support during the divorce proceedings.
