Ice T and Austin met while on the set of a music video in 2001, and the two got married a year later in Las Vegas. In a 2021 interview with InTouch Weekly, Ice T talked about the reason why he thinks their marriage is still so strong today. 

"We address problems quickly. She doesn’t say, 'I’m mad at you from last month.' How am I supposed to fix something if I didn’t know it was broken?" he explained to the outlet. "And we compromise. If you want to win every argument and do whatever you want to do, there’s a name for that — it’s called being single!"
