Personal Life
In 1979, Worthington divorced his wife of 37 years, Barbara, and married Susan Henning. That marriage ended badly seven years later. In 1995, he married Bonnie Reese, a 35-year-old radio personality. That marriage ended in 2002. In April 2011 Cal married Los Angeles-based Icelandic jazz singer Anna Mjöll Ólafsdóttir. In December 2011, it was reported that Anna Mjöll filed for divorce from Worthington.
In addition to automobile dealerships, Worthington owns ten ranches. Among these are his Northern California headquarters in Orland, California and the PX ranch in Nevada, which was once owned by The Salt Lake Tribune owner Thomas Kearns and later by Bing Crosby.
In May 2010, Worthington appeared in a political advertisement for California State Assembly candidate Larry Miles. The commercial, a throwback to the "My dog Spot" days, featured Worthington and "Spot" with Miles.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“There cannot be a personal God without a pessimistic religion. As soon as there is a personal God he is a disappointing God.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“At this very moment,... the most frightful horrors are taking place in every corner of the world. People are being crushed, slashed, disembowelled, mangled; their dead bodies rot and their eyes decay with the rest. Screams of pain and fear go pulsing through the air at the rate of eleven hundred feet per second. After travelling for three seconds they are perfectly inaudible. These are distressing facts; but do we enjoy life any the less because of them? Most certainly we do not.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
