Here’s the latest available on Sean Payton and his wife, based on public reporting.
- Sean Payton and his wife Beth Payton filed for divorce in 2012 after a long marriage; they were cited as separating due to personal discord, with custody considerations for their two children. This was the most recent widely reported divorce-related development in the 2010s; there hasn’t been a widely confirmed update to that status in major outlets since then.[6]
- Separately, Payton later remarried Skylene Montgomery, a former Miss West Virginia 2008, in June 2021 in a destination ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, following a long relationship and a surprise proposal arranged with support from Saints owner Gayle Benson.[3]
- Most later coverage has focused on Payton’s coaching career (Saints, Broncos) and Meghan Payton’s public family moments, with occasional mentions of his marital history but limited new information about ongoing status with Montgomery or Beth since the 2012 divorce, aside from family-news items about their children.[2][4][5]
