If you’re a fan of sports talk shows, you already know Joy Taylor isn’t just a broadcaster—she’s a force of nature. With her razor-sharp insights and quick wit, she’s become a staple on FS1 and Fox Sports Radio, captivating audiences on shows like Undisputed and The Herd. But while she’s crushing it in her career, fans are itching to know what’s happening off the field. Who’s Joy Taylor dating post-divorce from Richard Giannotti?

At 37, Joy’s love life has been just as interesting as her career. Her high-profile relationships have always been the talk of the town. One of them would be her short-lived marriage to the former baseball player Richard Giannotti. She’s been in the buzz with NBA stars as well. As of now, Taylor remains unmarried, but her past relationships continue to spark her curiosity. With her career moving ahead strongly, it’s clear that Joy Taylor’s story is far from getting over.

Richard Giannotti isn’t just known as Joy Taylor’s ex—he’s a man of many hats (and helmets). A former pro baseball player, Richard spent nine years swinging bats for teams like the LA Angels and St. Louis Cardinals before deciding his future wasn’t in the dugout. Trading cleats for calculators, he dove into finance, helping athletes keep their fortunes intact—because who better to manage money than someone who knows what it’s like to hit life’s curveballs? Oh, and if that wasn’t enough, he co-founded Bubucheek Clothing, proving he’s got an eye for style as well as stats. With a net worth sitting around $20 million, it’s safe to say Richard’s post-baseball career has been a home run.

Richard and Joy were married in 2016 and were regarded as one of the high-profile couples in the sports and entertainment industry. However, the couple drifted apart in 2017. Although we don’t know the reason for their divorce, we do know Richard found love again and married Kristen Giannotti in 2021.

As Richard continues to focus on his career and personal life, Joy has also moved forward with her career and relationships. This transition to separate lives has sparked curiosity about Joy’s own journey after the marriage, especially in terms of how she’s navigating her life post-divorce.

How is Joy Taylor settling down in her life after parting ways with Richard Giannoti?

As of 2025, Joy is not married and has kept her personal life private. After her divorce, she dated NBA coach Earl Watson. She was even engaged in September 2018, but for some reason, that didn’t work out. After that incident, she was apparently in a relationship with Colin Cowherd, her former co-host on The Herd. But the duo denied the rumors, confirming they were just ‘good friends‘. Joy’s relationships may have been a literal roller coaster over the years, but she’s shown that her personal life doesn’t define her.
