Stratigeas is of Greek and Polish descent and is the eldest daughter of John and Alice Stratigeas. Her sisters are named Christie and Melissa. Stratigeas married her high school sweetheart and boyfriend of fourteen years, Ron Fisico, on September 30, 2006. Several WWE Divas were in attendance at the wedding, and her bridal gown was featured on a cover of "Today's Bride" magazine. Shortly after the wedding, Stratus got the call to be a part of "Armed & Famous", so she filmed the show instead of going on her honeymoon.
