Charlotte Flair – real name Ashley Elizabeth Fliehr – is one of the most talked-about professional wrestlers signed to WWE performing on SmackDown. It’s not simply because she is the daughter of professional wrestler Ric Flair, aka Richard Morgan Fliehr — she seems to have earned fame for matters of her own.
As it turns out, the 38-year-old stunning second-generation professional wrestler got into the limelight after an alleged fistfight between her father and her former lover. But while the two were caught up in the brawl, the turn of events further took a turn downhill when Flair ended up being the one shot with a taser.
Charlotte Flair got shot with a Taser after Ric Flair’s fistfight with her lover
Being regarded as the greatest professional wrestler of all time by many peers and journalists,Ric Flairhas hardly ever hesitated to deliver perfectly in the ring. But there was a time when the Nature Boy’s passion for fighting seemed to have made its way out of the ring and into personal matters, soon after his WWE retirement.
This dates back to late 2008, whenWRAL Newsreported that the now-75-year-old wrestler got into it with a romantic partner of his daughter, Charlotte Flair. Per reports, the neighbors called the police on them reporting about a fight, though by the time the cops got there, the brawl was over, with officers following a trail of blood to Charlotte’s apartment.

When this happened, Ric was found on a bed in the back room while his daughter’s lover was in another part of the apartment. Charlotte, on the other hand, told the police that “the men had fought,but it was over, and things were fine.” Flair admitted to fighting with the boyfriend as well, though no charges were pressed against either.
But before the matter could cool down,The Sportsterhas it that Charlotte Flair reportedly assaulted one of the officers when they arrived, leading to her being shot with a Taser. This had her being sentenced to 45 days in jail, though honestly pleading guilty had her put on supervised probation and a $200 fine.
Charlotte Flair is rather famous for her love life as well
While she is famous for her performance in the ring,Charlotte Flairhas also earned significant limelight for her love life as well. Over the years, she has tied the knot three times, though it appears that none of her romantic relationships panned out the way she expected for even her latest marriage has reportedly ended in a divorce.
Her first marriage was to Riki Paul Johnson, which lasted from 2010 to 2013. This she more or less detailed in her autobiographySecond Nature, which she co-wrote with her father. Talking about the same withESPN, she said, “Riki was the hardest to write about.If you would have talked to me six months ago, I probably wouldn’t have gotten through the interview without crying.“

Johnson, however, denied all these claims of inflicting physical or psychological abuse on Charlotte and claimed there was no truth to her story about him being fired from multiple jobs due to problems with drug abuse. Instead, he launched a $5 million lawsuit against her, Ric Flair, co-author Brian Shields, and WWE for defamatory comments (viaFightful).
Then, after signing onto WWE’s developmental program and being assigned to FCW – which became the NXT brand helmed by Triple H in 2012 – she met her second husband: Kenneth Cameron, a British competitor. The pair tied the knot in 2013 but had to adapt to a long-distance relationship after Cameron was released from NXT in November 2012 due to legal troubles.
This marriage, too, couldn’t last for long, as it ended in 2015 when the two were performing for different companies. Unfortunately for Charlotte, Cameron was slapped with two felony charges of domestic abuse on a woman who claimed to be his girlfriend, with the pair’s marriage coming to an end the same month when the charges against him were dropped (perPatch).
Finally, in 2019, Charlotte Flair met the Mexican professional wrestler Manuel Alfonso Andrade Oropeza, with the pair eventually tying the knot in 2022. Talking about him withPEOPLE, she even said, “Before I met him, I did not know anything except my job.When I met him, he opened my eyes to travel and life and love and a different culture.“
Unfortunately, though, even Charlotte’s third marriage couldn’t be sustained as the pair is now being reported to have been divorced. Per the court records obtained byTMZ, she filed to separate from her wrestler hubby in Florida back in June 2024, with a judge appearing to sign off on the divorce in October 2024, so that’s that as well.
