The pair wed in 2005, four years after they first started dating, and are parents to three children
Paul Stanley and Erin Sutton have nearly two decades down and “forever” to go!
The KISS frontman, 72, shared a special message to his wife on X (formerly known as Twitter) alongside a throwback photo from their wedding, as they celebrated their 19-year marriage anniversary.
In the snap he shared, the pair could be seen smiling widely as they posed for the camera after saying “I do.” Stanley’s arm could be seen wrapped around Sutton’s — with his new wedding band in focus — as she held her wedding bouquet.
“HAPPY ANNIVERSARY BABY!,” he captioned a photo. “Married 19 years today and I know one lifetime will never be enough.”
The pair wed in November 2005, four years after they first started dating. Since then, they have welcomed three children: Colin Michael, Sarah Brianna and Emily Grace. Sutton is also stepmom to Stanley’s adult son, musician Evan Shane, from the singer’s previous marriage to Pamela Bowen. Stanley and Bowen wed in 1992 and divorced in 2001.
Over the years, the “Detroit Rock City” singer has penned tributes to her whenever they celebrate a new milestone in their relationship. For their tenth wedding anniversary he explained how he viewed their marriage, saying, “Some people say marriage is confining like jail. Mine was my ticket to freedom.”
For their 14-year anniversary, he wrote a sentimental tribute noting how far the pair have come in their relationship. “… I married Erin and found my key to a life filled with gifts I never imagined,” he wrote on Facebook. “My love for her only grows deeper. Find that person you love and who loves you regardless of anyone else’s concept, intolerance or prejudice. Nothing is more meaningful.”
