This article was last updated by on

Troy Aikman, a former NFL player, is currently single after having been married twice in the past. His most recent divorce was from his ex-wife, Catherine Mooty, in 2023.

Troy once played with the Dallas Cowboys and was even inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2006.

The footballer was once named Dallas’s most eligible bachelor by Texas Monthly and dated several popular artists of that era.

After splitting from his first wife, Rhonda Worthey, in 2011, Troy remarried six years later, tying the knot with Catherine Mooty.

Aikman shares two daughters with his first wife, Rhonda, but he had no children after his second marriage to Catherine.

Troy Aikman Was Married For Over A Decade With His First Wife, Rhonda Worthey!

Troy Aikman married his first ex-wife, Rhonda Worthey, on April 8, 2000, in Plano, Texas, after dating for about two years.

Rhonda herself was a pretty successful television host and publicist for the Dallas Cowboys and that was the time, when she met Troy.

The couple even welcomed two daughters: Jordan Ashley in 2001 and Alexa Marie in 2002.

They appeared as a perfect family of five, including Aikman’s two daughters from his marriage to Worthey and another child from a previous relationship, who stays out of the public eye.

During their time together as a married couple, they appeared to be the picture of a perfect couple.

The couple frequently attended public events together, including numerous red carpets and charity gatherings.

However, after 11 years of marriage, the couple parted ways and announced their separation on January 24, 2011, saying:

This has been a difficult decision for Rhonda and me, but after 10 years of marriage we have decided to separate

In an interview with TMZ, Troy Aikman further shared that he and his ex-wife committed to co-parenting their children, saying:

We remain deeply committed to our children and respectfully ask that you honor our family’s privacy during this period of adjustment.

To this day, Troy Aikman remains a devoted father to his daughters and frequently shares pictures with them online.

Later, Troy Aikman Found His Home In Catherine Mooty and Married for the Second Time in 2017!

After his divorce from his first wife, Troy Aikman entered into a relationship with fashion retailer Catherine Mooty.

The couple began dating in February 2016 and went public with their relationship soon after as they shared many pictures of their outings online.

The couple announced their engagement on June 2, 2017, and later tied the knot in September 2017 in Santa Barbara, California.

In addition to his two daughters from his previous marriage, Catherine Mooty also had two sons from her previous marriage.

They spent happy years in marriage for almost 6 years before their relationship went sour.

The couple divorced, and two months later, they made the news public after photographers captured photos of Aikman with a new girlfriend in Italy.

When the pair revealed their official separation in July 2023, Troy shared with The Athletic how he hit rock bottom after the failure of his second marriage.

A failure. That was my rock bottom

Although he struggled to maintain a successful marriage for a second time, Aikman went public with his new relationship shortly after the split.

Troy Aikman spent time with his rumored girlfriend, Haley Clark, in June 2023, and reports confirm they remain together in 2024.
