Personal life
Before entering the world of wrestling, Terri ran the make-up department at CNN and dated her accountant Derek Kuipers. From there, she dated Brian Pillman in 1990 while they were both in WCW. She was born Terri Ann Boatwright, but took the name of first husband Virgil Runnels III, with whom she has a daughter, Dakota, who was born on February 14, 1994. The couple divorced several years later, but retain an amicable relationship. She was briefly married again in April 2002 to Life Coach David Essel in a beach wedding where WWF legend Big Boss Man gave her away, but she divorced her new husband soon after. She turned down offers to pose for Playboy in the 1990s, citing the potential effects on her daughter.
