One of the iconic couples from the ABC series Wife Swap, Steven and Jodi Spolansky, have quietly divorced earlier this year after years of separation. The couple, who gained fame as multimillionaires on the show in 2004, finalized their split in January 2023. Steven, 58, filed for a contested divorce in August 2023, with court documents confirming the agreement reached between the two.
The Spolanskys shared three children at the time of their Wife Swap episode, with two more sons added to their family since then. The couple’s son, Lawson, now 18, recently made headlines with a TikTok video expressing how the show “ruined” their family’s life.
After their Wife Swap episode aired, the Spolanskys made a few TV talk show appearances before fading out of the spotlight. The show ran on ABC from 2004 to 2013 before being revived by Paramount for two seasons in 2019, including celebrity editions from 2012 to 2015.
Lawson’s TikTok video has shed light on the impact the reality show had on their family, prompting conversation about the long-lasting effects of appearing on programs like Wife Swap. With Steven living primarily in Miami and Jodi in the Seattle area during their separation, the divorce marks a new chapter for the couple who have now gone their separate ways.
