The Undertaker has been regarded as the greatest professional wrestler of all time by many. With an extremely dark persona, his character is loved by many fans across the globe. This often leads fans to wonder how the WWE Hall Of Famer is behind the lens.
The Undertaker took his retirement from regular in-ring action in 2020. Since then, he has seldom been spotted on various shows, either with WWE personalities or his wife, Michelle McCool. His wife also opens up the doors of rumors to his first wife, Jodi Lynn, to whom Taker was married for a decade.
Jodi Lynn and Mark Calaway, aka The Undertaker, got married in 1989, when Calaway was merely 24 years old. Being a private person, not much is revealed about his wife. Almost a decade later, in 1999, the two got divorced for unknown reasons. A little less than 25 years have passed since their separation. However, the two stay away from making any public claims about each other.

The only statement regarding the split between The Undertaker and Jodi Lynn came from Kevin Nash. On an episode of Kliq This podcast, he revealed that The DeadMan received his divorce papers moments before his match against Diesel at WrestleMania 12.
It would have been devastating for anyone to go through such a heartbreaking move before an important match. Taker told Diesel that his mind was occupied with his personal matters. However, despite much disturbance, he managed to secure the win in the match. It appears that the couple had an extremely close bond, even though they decided to part ways.
Did Jodi Lynn and The Undertaker have any kids?
Yes, The Undertaker and Jodi Lynn became parents to a son in 1993, whom they named Gunner Vincent Calaway. Being the first ever kid for The Undertaker, Gunner received much fame from the WWE Universe. An artist by profession, he has over 4000 followers on Instagram alone. He revealed to The Sun that he has no interest in stepping into his father’s profession.

It appears that Gunner is quite close to his mother, Jodi. In May 2021, he broke the streak of his artwork and wished his mother on Mother’s Day with a heartfelt post. Revealing some of the fun-filled shots from his phone memory, Gunner addressed his mother as his “ride-or-die,” his best friend and “#1 Mom worldwide.” On the other hand, Jodi’s Instagram account stays away from the eyes of the public.
