Inside the Life of Paul Stanleys Wife
Erin Sutton is the wife of Paul Stanley, the legendary musician and Kiss rock band frontman. The couple tied the knot in Pasadena, California on November 19, 2005 after several years of dating, they have three children together.
In the 70s, Stanley was your atypical rock star, but he happily traded in his groupie days when he began dating Erin Sutton. They subsequently tied the knot in 2005 and remain together nearly two decades later.
Their marriage has been blessed with multiple kids, and they regularly make joint red carpet appearances. Sutton is quite a private fellow, but her husband never forgoes any opportunity to tell the world the wonderful love story that they share.
Despite being the wife of one of the most famous musicians in the world, Erin Sutton leads a very private life. She has no significant social media presence, and her Instagram account is set to private. This makes it difficult to piece together information about her family background or birthplace.
Details of her early life are also hard to come by, but we know that she was born around the year 1975 in the United States of America. Her nationality is American, while her ethnicity is Caucasian. Erin Sutton most likely had a normal and happy childhood which accounts for the fact that she has grown into a well-rounded individual as an adult.
Erin Sutton is a lawyer by professional training. To qualify as such, she first completed her high school diploma around 1992/93 before acquiring a bachelor’s degree at San Diego State University around the mid-90s. Afterward, she enrolled at the Pepperdine University School of Law for further studies before taking the bar exams and qualifying as an attorney.
Erin Sutton qualified as an attorney and was admitted to the California bar on the 9th of June 1999. She spent parts of the 2000s intermittently practicing and inactive. Sutton’s law license has been inactive since January 2009, meaning that she has not practiced law since then.
Of course, her marriage to a celebrity likely necessitated her to stop working for pay. The lady now majorly focuses on supporting her family and husband. She will also be involved in several worthy charitable pursuits.
Erin Sutton first met Paul Stanley at a restaurant around 2002. She was a busy, upwardly mobile professional at that time while he was already a famous superstar with his band. He also happened to be reeling from the pain of his divorce from his first wife, but they nevertheless got talking and took a shine to each other. They subsequently started dating.
After about three years of dating, Erin Sutton and Paul Stanley tied the knot on the 19th of November 2005 in a beautiful ceremony held in Pasadena, California. All their loved ones were in attendance as they exchanged their vows.
Several celebrity guests also attended, but there was one noticeable absentee: Stanley’s bandmate, Gene Simmons. Simmons was notorious for his anti-marriage sentiments, and Stanley decided that he didn’t want someone who insulted the tenets of marriage at his wedding.

Erin Sutton and Paul Stanley have been married for 18 years now, and their union is going strong. Though the couple does not splash their marriage for public attention, there is no doubt that their love has stood the test of time. They have walked the red carpet together at several award ceremonies and industry events. They have also been pictured together backstage at many concerts and are now an enviable example in an industry rife with divorce.
Erin Sutton and her husband are yet to dish on the secret behind their longevity as a couple, but one thing that certainly helps is the fact that they are so expressive. For instance, on the 10th anniversary of their marriage, Stanley took to Twitter to reveal that they had conducted a vow renewal ceremony. He also declared that he was blessed and a lucky guy.
On their 14th wedding anniversary in 2019, Paul Stanley shared a beautiful picture of Erin and declared that nothing is more meaningful than love. As he put it, Erin was the key to a life filled with gifts, and his love for her grows deeper with each day. Erin did not return such effusive feelings, at least not publicly. Her social media accounts are set to private, but we are sure that she loves her husband as much as he loves her and lets him know all the time.
Erin Sutton has three children with her husband, Paul Stanley. The first is a son named Colin Michael Stanley, who was born on the 6th of September 2006. Their second child, a daughter named Sarah Brianna, followed on the 28th of January 2009, while their third child, a daughter named Emily Grace Stanley, was born on the 9th of August 2011.

Erin Sutton also has a stepson named Evan Shane (b. June 1994) from her husband’s previous marriage to actress Pamela Bowen. She has a great relationship with him, and he was there with the rest of the kids during their vow renewal ceremony in 2015. Meanwhile, Sutton and her family previously made their home in a massive Beverly Hills mansion for several years. However, in April 2021, she and her husband decided to demolish and rebuild a bigger and more elegant one.
The construction is bound to be a hectic one, and they may have to seek other temporary accommodation so as not to unsettle their kids. For instance, their first child, Colin Michael, is about 17 years of age and is still in high school. Brianna Sarah is about 14 years and is still in middle school, while Emily Grace is about 12 years and may still be in elementary school.
