Who is Josh's wife?
He's single now, but Josh and Brody Dalle were married for 14 years and had three kids together. The former couple, who married in 2005 and split back in 2019, had quite a rocky last few years together. According to TMZ, Brody had a restraining order filed against Josh, claiming he showed up at her house drunk and head-butted her.
The rock star claimed in return that Brody would intentionally show up at his gigs in order to trigger a violation of that order and land him in legal trouble. In the same documents shared by TMZ, Josh hit back at his ex even more so, claiming that throughout the course of their marriage, she punched him in the face roughly seven times, threw an iron at him, and bragged to her friends and relatives about it.
Brody has never publicly confirmed or denied these allegations.

Orrin claims that Josh grabbed his private parts during an altercation, that he drinks alcohol while driving the kids around, and that he is generally physically abusive towards him. The instances of abuse the young boy detailed included flicking his ears, hitting his head, poking his chest, throwing things at him, and calling him fat. Furthermore, Orrin claims that Josh has made threats about murdering Brody's new boyfriend.
Wolf has also made similar claims against his father. For his part of the alleged restraining order, the 5-year-old echoed his older brother by saying that Josh drinks and drives with them in the car and grabs his neck and ears during altercations. He also says that he is "scared" to go to his father's house to visit.
The two boys are reportedly seeking to have an order instated that would keep Josh 100 yards away from them and the family dog at all times.
