Do couples that play together stay together in the biz.
AVN ran this feature a few years ago and as far as I remember every shining example the gave are now divorced. Nina and Dave Hartley, Evan Stone and Jessica Drake, Jill Kelly and Julian, Michael Raven and Sydney Steele … the list is long.
Butt when I think of it there are precious few examples of couples who can survive biz of performing in this biz, the sex, the drugs, the craziness.
So I look at couples who have been together at least 5 years, take Tera and Evan, absolutely NOBODY thought this would last, but it has and that’s a credit to them.
Tim Case and Felicia Fox survived it and are probably the shining example of how it can be done, the keys said Case are “sanity and patience”.
Indeed his advice of avoid the drugs, avoid getting “caught up in it all” and don’t get a big head seem to cover the basics. From there learn to get a handle on the jealousy, search inside yourself to find out why it’s there and what it is, which is simply your own insecurity. If you can deal with that its half the battle.
The rest is staying away from drugs and communicate with each other, jealousy is much easier to deal with when you know the lady is coming home to you…Not because she is trapped but because she wants to.
I forgot to add Steve Lane and Serenity who have outlasted EVERYONE, amybe Wiccans know something we don’t.

Gina Lynn and Travis Knight have seemed to make it work, too.
I think they’ve been married for eight years!
Yes Gina and Travis seem very happy also..
I would like to add that it may not be the business that breaks couples up. I have heard a phrase several time in the few years Ive been in this game .. “If there is anything wrong with your relationship before you go into porn together , it will be magnified ten fold” After experiencing it for myself, I believe that to be true.
Also do you think there is something to be said about porn couples breaking up and remaining good friends? It seems to happen a lot.
Cheyne Collins and Chenin Blanc.
Michael Raven and Julia Ann.
Gina Lynn and Travis Knight.
Nicole Sheridan and Voodoo.
Eric Masterson and Maya Devine.
Lexi Lamour and Ethan Cage.
John Stagliano and Tricia Devereaux.
Stormy and Moz.
I’m sure there are plenty more that we’re not thinking of. A career in porn doesn’t have to destroy an already good relationship, no matter what everyone seems to think.
