The age difference between Howard Stern and his second wife, Beth Ostrosky, is notable. The 18 years between them have sparked much criticism, even from Stern’s eldest daughter Emily who was initially unhappy with her father dating the model after divorcing her mom, Alison Berns. Stern being Beth’s senior by 18 years has also caused conflict between them, most notably her refusal to be buried alongside him. But it’s also sparked some hilarious segments on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show. Including a conversation about why Stern and Beth never had kids together.
In this article, we will reveal why Beth Stern laughed in her husband’s face when he claimed that he still would’ve married her if she already had kids or wanted more. Following that, we will delve into the relationship Beth Stern has with Howard Stern’s three daughters.
Howard Stern’s staffers berated him on air when he revealed that he and his longtime girlfriend Beth Ostrosky had gotten engaged back in 2007. Prior to this, Stern had made several public declarations of never wanting to get married following his divorce from his Boston University sweetheart, Alison Berns. Both during and after Stern shed his shock jock image, the man made an absolute fortune by exposing details about his personal life, including his vicious on-air fights with his first wife that contributed to their divorce.
Audience members, and even Stern’s staff, seemed to be invested in his relationship with his much younger girlfriend, who he had met in 2000. But no one thought he’d buckle and get married again.
While Stern relented and gave in to Beth’s marriage desires, he never wanted to have more kids. That includes both having children with Beth or becoming a stepdad to existing ones. Beth herself knew and still knows this well, which is why she laughed in Stern’s face when he claimed he still would’ve dated her had she already had kids.
