Rodney Carrington was born on October 19, 1968. He is an actor, comedian, writer, and singer. He is well known for his work under Capitol Records. Rodney may be best known for his nine major record label comedy albums he recorded, which sold millions of copies around the world. In addition to his recordings he also starred in the movie ‘Beer for my Horses’ and in the sitcom, ‘Rodney’. His first album was released in 1998 and according to Pollstar, Rodney has been one of the top ten highest grossing touring comedians for the last ten years, and among the top 4 or 5 the last several years.
Growing up Rodney was shy as a child but always dreamt of his voice being heard by as many people as possible. Working towards his dreams Rodney started his career in Texas venues through stage shows and radio. Being a comedian, he is seldom heard or seen in a serious mood. He is the type of person who has undeniable charisma while on stage.
In 2012 he divorced his wife of 18 years. After his separation, he started making a lot of divorce jokes on his show. He said that he tried his best to make the relationship work, but his former wife was stubborn and set on leaving him. He said that the two of them never talk to each other, but they are very involved in their children’s life.
As for his kids, he seems to be a great, loving, and affectionate father who is always there for them. According to Rodney his children are “the funniest people on earth.” No one knew about his marital life until he told the media that he had quit trying. Terri also never had spoken about her former husband as to what went wrong and other details.
The separation settlement was smooth and did not attract much attention from the media. There were no rumors about any secret affairs which could have caused the relationship to end. Rodney was not seen with any other women during the time of the separation. We may not be certain about the exact reasoning behind the separation, but we do know for sure that there wasn’t a third party involved. It would have been nearly impossible to hide an affair due to his notoriety and popularity with the media.
