WWE superstar “Nature Boy” Ric Flair has always played the part of the playboy, but the wrestling star has actually settled down. He had a commitment ceremony this week with his longtime girlfriend Wendy Barlow.
While originally labeled a wedding, and showing all signs that it was one Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Radio (via Wrestling Inc) said that it was a commitment ceremony.
Flair had been married four times before, with his most recent marriage ending in 2014 after five years. With that said, his new bride has been part of Flair’s life since his days in WCW in the ‘90s. Barlow portrayed the character of Fifi the Maid in Flair promos. The two originally met in 1993.
The couple reconnected six years ago.
Flair, 69, married the 58-year-old Barlow in Rosemary Beach, Florida, on Wednesday afternoon. Flair walked down the aisle to the music of Offset and Metro Boomin’s “Ric Flair Drop” wearing a white suit.
Barlow wore a white strapless dress with a sparkling silver strap across her shoulder and a thick glistening pendant on her hip.
