Marriage to Carly Fiorina

Related Biography: Todd Chrisley

Frank met Carly while both were working at AT&T. At the time, Frank held a superior position within the company. Recalling an early moment in their relationship, Frank has said that on their third date, he told Carly she would one day lead the company. The couple married in 1985 in a private ceremony held at a friend’s home in Maryland. The intimate event had only six attendees, including the caterer and Frank’s two daughters from his previous marriage.

Retirement and Support of Carly’s Career

Frank retired from his corporate career at the age of 48 to support his wife and assist in family matters. Although some friends questioned his decision, Frank remained committed to standing by Carly, both personally and professionally. He informally served as her bodyguard during her tenure as CEO of Hewlett-Packard and during her 2010 U.S. Senate campaign. In 2000, Frank obtained a legal permit to carry a firearm, which he carried for security purposes during his wife’s high-profile corporate and political engagements.

The couple has been transparent about their financial background, revealing a combined estimated net worth of $59 million, attributed largely to Carly's corporate career and board memberships.

Personal Challenges and Resilience

In 2009, Frank and Carly faced a year marked by personal difficulty. The death of Frank’s daughter, Lori Ann, and Carly’s diagnosis with breast cancer placed significant emotional strain on the family. Carly underwent a successful double mastectomy and made a full recovery. Throughout this period, Frank stood steadfastly by Carly, and the couple drew strength from their marital commitment, remaining united through both adversity and recovery.
