Corey Taylor’s wife, Alicia, responded to rumors about them remarrying after sharing new wedding photos on Instagram.
A fan asked in the comments, “Did you guys marry again??” to which Alicia replied, “No, we originally wanted these photographers when we married back in 2019. We finally got to shoot with them last summer.”
Corey announced his engagement to Alicia on April 7, 2019, via Instagram, and they tied the knot on October 6, 2019. In a 2022 interview with Loudwire, Alicia shared the story of how they first met. She recalled, “He snubbed me one day backstage, and I think the situation was a little odd at first, but I went to shake his hand, and I said, ‘Thank you so much; it’s so nice to meet you,’ and he looked at me and just turned around and walked away.”
Alicia went on, “I was like, ‘Oh my God,’ and then, and at the time, I was like, ‘Wow, Corey Taylor’s really weird,’ and moving on from that, I met him again on another show, right? I said hi to him again across, and then he was nice to me that time. I posted on Instagram and said I met Corey Taylor again; this time around, he was nice to me, and I showed him that. I give him hell for it all the time, so there’s just been a lot of little mini interactions over, you know, seven years.”
“By the time we toured together, he had asked me to go out on a date, and I had said no. I didn’t want to date a band guy, that’s what they all say, and I didn’t want to. I was, ‘Nope, not about it, don’t trust you, not into it,’ and you know I wanted to be professional, so he said, ‘Let me talk; just hear me out,'” Alicia added.
She continued, “I was like, fine, I’ll listen. I’m just going to collect data, and he was trying and trying and trying, and then eventually he said, ‘Listen, can I take you on a date after this tour?’ I said, ‘After the tour is over, after the last show we’re done working, you can take me on a date,’ and then the rest is history.”
Corey had been married twice before Alicia and has two daughters and a son from his previous marriages.
