On December 10, 2019, Un-PC co-host Britt McHenry accused Tyrus of sexual harassment after the former professional wrestler and Fox News presenter allegedly sent her a string of obscene text messages.
Fox News initially reported that the matter had been duly investigated and settled. However, McHenry still went ahead and filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against both the retired wrestler and the television network. She eventually dismissed the suit in July 2021 and left the Fox channel in what many believe was part of a legal settlement.
The internet went on overdrive shortly after the sexual harassment claims came to the limelight, with most search queries related to Tyrus’ love life and marital status. But is the former wrestler married?
The short answer is yes, and this article takes a closer look at his wife.
Who Is Tyrus?
George Murdoch, better known by his ring name Tyrus, is an American former professional wrestler who now works as a cable news personality and actor.
Tyrus pursued his wrestling career primarily under the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) federation. He’s a former NWA World Heavyweight Champion.
After retiring from pro wrestling, George Murdoch ventured into cable news presenting and acting. He appears regularly on Fox News and Fox Nation, either as a co-host of the late-night talk show ‘Gutfeld!’ or as a contributor to the network’s other programs.
Who Is Tyrus Married To?
Tyrus is married to a woman named Ingrid Rinck.
Rinck is a famous fitness enthusiast, trainer, and entrepreneur. She’s the founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of Sensible Meals.
However, little was known about Rinck before she met and eventually married Tyrus. The fitness trainer cum entrepreneur only began to hit the headlines after she became romantically associated with the former wrestler.
Ingrid Rinck’s Early Life and Education Background
Ingrid Rinck was born on April 24, 1981, to Gary F. Rinck and Jane Boisdore Rinck. She’s 42 years old as of 2023, eight years younger than her husband who was born on February 21, 1973.
There’s little information about the current whereabouts of Rinck’s parents. However, many outlets report that her father was an astute businessman who ran a chain of fast-food restaurants across the United States. Her mother is a registered nurse who graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from the New Orleans-based Loyola University.
Ingrid has two known siblings – brother Christian Eric Rinck and sister Kirsten Elizabeth Rinck. Little is known concerning her education background as she’s yet to share such details with the public.
Ingrid Rinck’s Career Information
Ingrid Rinck discovered her passion for fitness at the age of fifteen years. She began attending a fitness class to nurture her ambitions.
Within only a year of training, Rinck had honed her skills so much that she became a fitness instructor in her very own class. She has since pursued a successful fitness career and has numerous accolades to show for it.
Rinck’s training programs revolve around exercise and diet. She’s credited for helping dozens shed extra pounds through robust workout plans and healthy dieting.
Ingrid originally owned a gym where she undertook most of her fitness training programs. However, she closed the gym to focus her full attention on Sensible Meals, a meal prep company that her father helped her to establish in 2014.
Rinck’s decision to engage fully in the affairs of Sensible Meals was inspired by the fact that her son Rhett had been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.
While preparing diabetic-friendly meals for Rhett, Ingrid occasionally incorporated those foods into the family’s regular diet. She discovered she had lost a considerable amount of weight and decided to establish the company to share her weight loss tips with the rest of the world.
Besides Sensible Meals, Ingrid Rinck is the founder of the non-profit organization Leading Ladies League and a subscription-based online workout class called The Rinck Routine (TRR) website.
