Last month I shared the exciting news that actor John Schneider had found love in Indiana. Little did I know the stress, anxiety, and drama that this actor's love life would cause little ole me.

I feel like you need the backstory about this craziness because it is one of those 'Liberty' ordeals that I cannot make up.

Actor John Schneider Visits Indiana - April 2024

John Schneider shared several really cool social media posts from his travels in Southern Indiana. From celebrating his birthday during the eclipse in New Harmony, Indiana to scouting filming locations in Santa Claus, Indiana, I was excited to see where he would go next.

Actor John Schneider Visits Evansville, Indiana - May 10, 2024

Then it finally happened. John Schneider shared a great review of the Gerst Haus – He was literally a few miles away. I had been a fan of John Schneider my whole life. The thought of meeting Jonathan Kent from Smallville was so exciting to me. I called my friend Matt Grisham and we went on the 'JS Scavenger Hunt'.

We met John Schneider at the West side BMV. My first logical question was 'Why are you at the BMV? Are you moving to Indiana'? His answer was 'Yes'. So, of course, I asked where in Indiana, and he told me Madison, Indiana!

When John was here in Evansville, I also met the reason for his new lease on life. Her name is Dee Dee Sorvino. She was married to legendary actor Paul Sorvino until he died in 2022. Dee Dee is originally from Southern Indiana, and she has been traveling with him to some of the most beautiful spots in Indiana like New Harmony, and Evansville.

Now, I had this information for over a month before I shared it publicly. John and Dee Dee were in Evansville at the beginning of May 2024. This is important to the timeline of my personal hell (Pardon the language).

Actor John Schneider Finds New Love: The Woman Who Stole His Heart is a Hoosier

During a podcast posted on May 29, 2024, John Schneider discusses a new love. When I heard him mention Dee Dee by name, I wrote an article about my experience meeting them in Evansville, Indiana. That article was published on June 3, 2024.

Chaos Ensues

This is where my experience with John Schneider and his now-wife Dee Dee Sorvino took a weird turn. Now, for the record, everything that I wrote on June 3 is still unchanged. The exception would be that the Mourning Show Podcast with Schneider and Sorvino is no longer a working link.

I received this message from Dee Dee Sorvino in reference to my article. She did not give me any indication as to what information I had wrong. This was sent to me past my bedtime, so I answered her the next morning. Aside from a friend request, this is the only correspondence that I had with her.

The Stress Continues

Anytime there is a situation where I think that I have upset someone or that I could get in trouble at work, I get physically sick. So, this was really freaking me out. The situation escalated when I started getting texts from unknown numbers like this.

Excuse me? Then Matt Grisham shared with me that Dee Dee had sent multiple messages to him, urging him to get me to take my article off of the internet. Again, this message is from June 3, 2024.

I Now Pronounce You...

As Mr. Wonderful says, this whole situation has been dead to me...Until July 24, 2024. That's when every story that popped into my newsfeed was all about JOHN SCHNEIDER MARRYING DEE DEE SORVINO.

I feel like I need to apologize to everyone who has heard me rant and stress about this whole incident for the past month and a half. Just remember, sometimes things are exactly what they seem. Don't let people bully you if you know that your information is accurate. 

Big news big news everybody! DeeDee and I got hitched last night in Vegas! Those of you who’ve been riding shotgun with me this last year and a half or so can understand that I never dreamed that happiness would be possible again. I’m here to tell you that you are stronger than you think! And those folks who have “gone on ahead” are absolutely not only watching from above… but giving us the necessary small nudge… and the occasional kick in the butt to do the right things! I honestly never thought I would ever laugh again… and now I laugh all the time! I sure do love that crazy dame at the end of the bar! Thanks DeeDee! Thanks, Paul!! Thanks, Alicia!!!
