- Gretchen Rossi (2009-Present) – Slade and TV personality and actress Gretchen Rossi met one another before Gretchen joined the cast of the reality TV show, The Real Housewives of Orange County. It was Slade who recommended her for an interview with the producers in 2008 as he had been a part of the show since 2006, and Gretchen joined after she received encouragement from her then-fiancé Jeff. However, she later broke off her engagement with Jeff and she began dating Slade in 2009. Slade and Gretchen got engaged in 2013, after 4 years of being together. In 2015, Gretchen enrolled in an IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation) program, and on December 17, 2018, the couple announced they managed to conceive through the treatment, and that they were expecting a child on July 10, 2019. Gretchen added that their child was a fighter right from the get-go, because she “self-corrected herself in the embryonic state, going from 2 to 5 cells, which is not genetically sound, but then went back to 4.” Slade and Gretchen also organized a very lavish gender reveal party in February 2019, where they revealed their kid is a daughter. Following the party, the couple announced their daughter would be named Skylar Gray, in honor of Slade’s own son Grayson who was diagnosed with a brain tumor back in 2006 and was undergoing chemotherapy at that time.
