WWE Hall of Famer and former 16-time world champion Ric Flair issued a brief statement on his Twitter account earlier today announcing that he and his wife, Wendy Barlow, have decided to end their marriage and go their own way go.
The Nature Boy writes: “After taking a break, Wendy and I decided to go our separate ways. Please respect our privacy and our families during this time! I will forever love and cherish all our memories together, and I will forever be grateful for all she has done to make my life better! ”
Flair and Barlow initially met in the 1990s and began dating shortly after Flair’s fourth marriage ended in divorce. The two were engaged in 2016 and married in 2018. He thanked Barlow on numerous occasions for being by his side during his serious medical problems, including multiple surgeries that many assumed the former champion would not get through.

After taking some time apart, Wendy and I decided to go our separate ways. Please respect our privacy and our families during this time! I will forever love and cherish all our memories together, and I will be forever grateful for all she has done to make my life better!
