Private Life
Stagliano was in a relationship with pornographic actress Krysti Lynn (aka Shawna Yager) during 1993. She was driving Stagliano's Acura Legend when she died on December 7, 1995, in an accident in Calabasas.
In 1997, Stagliano tested positive for HIV. To date, medication has kept the virus in check. He continues to produce adult films and still acts in non-sexual roles.
He married former porn star Tricia Devereaux, who is also HIV positive, on November 26, 2008. They had previously been common-law married since 1999, and they have a daughter Isabella Joi, who was born March 3, 2001. She is HIV negative. Stagliano espouses a libertarian political philosophy, and has been a significant financial contributor to the Cato Institute and the Reason Foundation, both libertarian think tanks.

Famous quotes containing the words private and/or life:
“Remember that you are an actor in a drama, of such a part as it may please the master to assign you, for a long time or for a little as he may choose. And if he will you to take the part of a poor man, or a cripple, or a ruler, or a private citizen, then may you act that part with grace! For to act well the part that is allotted to us, that indeed is ours to do, but to choose it is another’s.”
—Epictetus (c. 55–135 B.C.)
“Shut out from the world with its blare and glare, life in an institution moves softly. The ears become attuned to gentle notes and a subdued tone.”
—Mary B. Harris (1874–1957)
