Missy Rothstein Met Her Ex-Husband Since High School
Bam Margera whose real name is Brandon Cole started off as Missy’s friend while they were both in high school. The duo attended West Chester High School. At the time, they were just good friends before their relationship turned romantic in 2003, years after they graduated.
Before Bam became famous for being a stuntman, he would shoot videos of himself and his friends skateboarding while doing crazy stunts. His videos became popular in the CKY series, and shortly after he started his own realty stunt show on MTV titled Jackass. From there everything just went uphill for the skateboarder.
After the duo reconnected in 2003 and started dating, the relationship spiraled and in 2006, Bam proposed to Missy in front of a Cartier store. He revealed that he saw a diamond ring that fits perfectly on her finger, which he thought was a good sign.
They officially got married on February 3, 2007, at the Loews Hotel, in downtown Philadelphia, which aired on MTV’s Bam Unholy Union. The duo went on to get matching tattoos after they signed their marriage license. They remained married for 3 years until their relationship started to spiral downward in 2010.
Missy Got Divorced From The American Stuntman in 2012
In 2010, Missy’s marriage to Bam started experiencing challenges which led to the deterioration of their marriage. The major reason for their problem was Bam’s late-night partying in the house and his excessive drinking.
His attitude continued for a while and Missy was always at the end of the bargain because she would always have to clean up the house the mornings after his parties before going to work. The stress began to cause a rift in their marriage.
One time the reality TV star had to call 911 for help after Bam had been drinking for 4 days in a row. Eventually, the skateboarder asked her to move out of the house because of the constant fights and disagreements. They eventually got divorced in 2012.
After the divorce was finalized, Missy celebrated and tweeted that she was finally free, and asked her fans to join her in the celebration.

Nikki requested that she gets full custody of their son, who was 5 years old at the time. In addition to her terms, she requested that Bam pays her spousal support and cover her legal fees. Her lawyer accused Bam of leaving his client high and dry.
Asides from Nikki, the stuntman has also been in other relationships, including one with Jenn Rivell. The relationship led to an engagement. However, it did not get t the altar as the couple broke up in 2005. The breakup was so messy that Bam requested a restraining order against Rivell.
