Patti Scialfa - Personal Life

Personal Life

Scialfa first met Springsteen at the Stone Pony, a New Jersey bar, in the early 1980s.

Although initially reluctant, Scialfa joined the 1988 Tunnel of Love Tour postponing the recording of a solo record. In the spring of 1988, Springsteen separated from his then wife, Julianne Phillips, and Scialfa and Springsteen started living together shortly afterwards. Springsteen and Phillips's divorce was finalized in March 1989.

Scialfa and Springsteen first lived in New Jersey and later in New York for a short time, before moving to Los Angeles where they started a family. On July 25, 1990 Scialfa gave birth to the couple's first child, Evan James Springsteen. The couple married on June 8, 1991 at their Los Angeles home in a ceremony only attended by family and close friends. Their second child, Jessica Rae Springsteen, was born on December 30, 1991; and a third child, Samuel Ryan Springsteen, was born on January 5, 1994. The family returned to New Jersey in the early 1990s and now lives on a horse farm in Colts Neck, New Jersey. They also own homes in Wellington, Florida near West Palm Beach, Los Angeles and Rumson, New Jersey.

Famous quotes related to personal life:

    He hadn’t known me fifteen minutes, and yet he was ... ready to talk ... I was still to learn that Munshin, like many people from the capital, could talk openly about his personal life while remaining a dream of espionage in his business operations.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
