John Finlay told The Sun in May 2021 that his wedding to Joe Exotic — which was seen on season one of the show — was fake. He said, "The fake [wedding] was basically a publicity stunt so Joe could get his own reality TV series." He married a woman named Stormey in 2020 and told The Sun that he had "never felt this way about anyone before." The two still appear to be together and happy based on Finlay's Facebook.
