Booker T. Huffman Jr, aka Booker T, is happily married to his spouse, Sharmell Sullivan-Huffman. They have two children and are living the life of their dream.

However, most people do not know that Sharmell is not Booker T.’s first wife. Booker T was married to his former wife, Levestia Huffman, before starting a relationship with Sharmell.

The pair were married for four years before their marriage ended in a divorce. Here is everything we know about the couple.

Who is Booker T.’s first wife?

Not much is known about Booker T.’s relationship with his first wife. When he was married to Levestia, he was up and coming into the wrestling industry.

It is reported that the two got married on May 23, 1996. He introduced her to the world the night following his WCW World Heavyweight Championship triumph at Bash at the Beach.

Levestia was also used to escalate his feud with Jeff Jarrett, who whacked her in the head with a guitar on Nitro on July 31, 2000. Soon after, Booker T. and his ex-wife parted ways.

Other than this, nothing is known about Levestia and her relationship with Booker T.
