Stone Cold and Jeanie Clarke met when they worked together as wrestlers in the early 1990s. He got paired with a valet, Vivacious Veronica, later joined by Lady Blossom or Jeanie Clarke. Jeanie Clarke had been in a relationship with a wrestler named Chris Adams but had separated in the early 1980s, with the couple having a daughter named Jade Adams.
When he joined the WCW, something that he talks about in his Stone Cold Steve Austin's documentary, Jeanie became his valet. Since Jeanie and Clarke had separated, the association billed Chris Adams as Clarke’s ex-wife, but the two were never actually married in real life. That happened because Austin and Chris had a feud and the branding added an extra dimension to it.
Austin and Clarke dated even when he was still married to Kathryn Burrhus. And after Austin and Kathryn annulled their marriage in August 1992, he went on to marry Clarke. Stone Cold's marriage to Clarke meant that he became Clarke’s daughter, Jade Adams.
