Was Frank Fritz Married? 

Though Frank Fritz may not have been married, he was previously in a relationship with his now ex-girlfriend, Diann. Well, per our findings, his relationship with Diann may have ended in 2019 because, apparently, the long-term relationship his fans felt he had that was going to lead to marriage unfortunately didnʼt. 

He first gave hits to his relationship with Diann in a post he made on his now-private Facebook account sometime in 2021. In December 2016, sources say, Frank shared a picture of Diann, her daughter Paige, and Paige’s daughter Eulalia. 

He had referred to his then-girlfriend’s daughter’s child as his “granddaughter.” But, when he tried to clarify the dynamics of their relationship, he was quoted as saying: 

“Diann’s family is my family. It is great being Grandpa Frank! I love my girls.” 

On a rather sad note, though, when Frank Fritz granted The Sun an interview in July of 2021, as he entered rehab, he spoke about his relationship with his then-girlfriend, Diann, and was quoted to have said in part: 

“The main problem was this girlfriend I had. I thought I was getting married, and I bought a brand new house. Then I found out that all the time while I was on the road, she had a boyfriend back here.

It hurt my feelings, my self-esteem, and my whole world. I gave it a good shot, I tried to drink her away. I never drank that much before.”

Reacting to his claims regarding the dynamics of their relationship, Diann, in an interview she granted The Sun on a later date, was quoted as saying in part: 

“It’s not true what he’s saying. If he’s trying to make me look like the bad person of course I’m going to say it’s not true, because it’s not. I don’t care to have drama or chaos in my life, I’m just trying to heal right now. It’s been two years, I’m ready to move on.” 

Per this revelation and the interview was given in 2021, it means that Diann and Frank officially broke up around 2019. And for Diann’s daughter, Paige, it may well be a child she had in a previous relationship. But, ultimately, she and Frank do not share any form of grudges, even though their relationship didn’t last ‘happily ever after.’
