Many current WWE Superstars are in a relationship with their co-workers. Some of these real-life couples are now inactive for different reasons. While Corey Graves continues to perform his commentary duties, his wife, Carmella, is currently on maternity leave. Charlotte Flair is also out of action, while her husband, Andrade, competes on SmackDown.

Meanwhile, other couples are currently active on the main roster. Although most of them do not work together on television, they compete on the same brand. Only one active real-life couple is now split between Monday Night RAW and SmackDown.

Here's a look at five real-life couples currently active on the WWE main roster:

#5. Karrion Kross and Scarlett

The former NXT Champion and The Smoke Show first met on the independent circuit. After dating for a few years, the couple announced their engagement in September 2021. Seven months later, Karrion Kross and Scarlett tied the knot.

The 39-year-old and his wife currently work together on Monday Night RAW. The couple is part of The Final Testament, alongside The Authors of Pain and Paul Ellering. The Miz recently aligned with the group as they entered a feud with the Wyatt Sicks. The two factions are set to collide next Monday on the red brand in an eight-man tag team match.


#4. Bianca Belair and Montez Ford

Bianca Belair is one of the top female superstars in WWE. She is currently one-half of the Women's Tag Team Champions. Her husband, Montez Ford, is also a multi-time tag team champion. Although they do not work together, they perform on the SmackDown brand.

Belair and Ford have been in a relationship since their time in NXT. The one-half of the Street Profits and the 35-year-old tied the knot in June 2018.

The EST of WWE recently revealed in an interview with the No-Contest Wrestling podcast that the former SmackDown Tag Team Champion had to ask permission from her father and WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry to date her.

"So, yeah, he went and had that, like, my husband had to have two talks, one with Mark Henry and one with my daddy for approval," she said.

#3. Ms. Money in the Bank Tiffany Stratton and Ludwig Kaiser

Another active real-life couple in WWE is reigning Ms. Money in the Bank Tiffany Stratton and Imperium's Ludwig Kaiser. They have reportedly been dating since 2022. Unlike all other couples on the main roster, the former NXT Women's Champion and her boyfriend compete on different brands. While The Buff Barbie performs on SmackDown, Kaiser is on Monday Night RAW.

In a recent interview with Daily Mail, Stratton addressed potentially working with her real-life partner on screen. The 25-year-old disclosed that she would be open to it:

"We are not in a rush to be together on screen; we are on separate brands, but if the time comes, I am down," she said. [H/T: Daily Mail]

Meanwhile, Tiffany revealed that she only saw her boyfriend two days a week because they were on different brands. However, she pointed out that they made their time together count.


#2. Jimmy Uso and Naomi

In January 2014, Jimmy Uso and Naomi tied the knot. The real-life couple celebrated their 10th anniversary earlier this year, as they are currently on the SmackDown roster.

Despite being on the same brand, Jimmy and the former SmackDown Women's Champion do not work together on-screen. While Big Jim is involved in The Bloodline storyline, his wife has pursued gold over the past few months. She recently lost to Nia Jax in a WWE Women's Championship match on SmackDown. This Friday, she will lock horns with Tiffany Stratton and Elektra Lopez in a Triple Threat Match in the first round of the Women's United States Championship Tournament.

Naomi and her husband competed in the Men's and Women's WarGames Matches, respectively, last Saturday. They both emerged victorious with their respective teams.


#1. Johnny Gargano and the current WWE Women's Speed Champion, Candice LeRae

Like Karrion Kross and Scarlett, Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae first met on the independent circuit. They even had their first date at a Subway. The couple married in September 2016, eight months after announcing their engagement. The SmackDown stars were blessed with their first child, Quill Gargano, in February 2022.

In an interview with Busted Open Radio last year, the former NXT Champion stated that he and LeRae were living their dream while on the road together.

"It is amazing now to be able to travel together and share these experiences with my wife, Candice. And we're both living our dream. We're both traveling town to town, picking up the rental cars, going and staying in the hotels, and it definitely makes life a whole lot easier when you're traveling with your significant other," he said.

While Gargano was absent from WWE Survivor Series: WarGames, his wife competed in the Women's WarGames Match as part of the heel team. However, Candice and her teammates failed to emerge victorious against Rhea Ripley and Co.
