Ian Ziering seems to be moving on from his wife, Erin Kristine Ludwig. The Beverly Hills, 90210 stars, is dating again after years of growing apart and a difficult divorce. And, although we’d want to get our hopes up, he’s only made himself accessible on the celebrity dating app Raya. Sources told US Magazine in 2020 that Ziering had joined the socialite-only dating app, Raya. It had been seven months after his long-awaited divorce from his then-wife, Ludwig. What transpired after that is a complete mystery. There has been no additional word about who he is dating. The performer himself seemed to prefer that it does not.

Second wife, children, and a tumultuous divorce
Ziering had been alone for years until he met Ludwig on Labor Day 2009, soon after moving to Los Angeles. On February 3, 2010, three months after their first meeting, he proposed. Ludwig and Ziering were over heals for one other as they went down the aisle on May 29, 2010, in Newport Beach, California. The couple’s daughters, Mia and Penna, joined the family in 2011 and 2013, respectively. A few months after Penna was born, the actor was crowned ‘Daddy of the Year’ by DaddyScrubs.com. The honor reminded the actor of his father and background, and he’s simply trying to “pay it forward.”
He also confessed that failing to develop a wonderful relationship and raise their daughters was not an option for him and Ludwig. Instead, he emphasized the importance of passion and devotion. Mia and Penna had a significant effect on Ziering’s life, and he once said that becoming a father was “the finest part” he’d ever played, even more than Steve Sanders. However, as wonderful as this family seemed to be, their marriage was going to fail. Ziering and Ludwig’s marriage came to an end in October 2019 when the actor filed for divorce. He is alleged to have persuaded her to depart as well.
In a now-deleted Instagram post, Ziering said that their hectic work schedules were the primary cause for their split as they grew apart over time. Regardless, he considered Ludwig to be their girls’ finest mother. According to reports, the Swamp Thing star has requested shared legal and physical custody of Mia and Penna, as well as child visitation for both parents. Appropriate spousal maintenance was also on the table for a brief time. Furthermore, he urged that his ex-wife become self-sufficient. Ludwig pointed out that she was still generating money from her site Elevated By Erin months after filing for divorce. And although she earns a good living from it, she also works as a consultant for several public relations businesses.
Ziering’s First Wife Nikki Schieler
The actor is most remembered for his portrayal of Steve Sanders in the 1990s cult film Beverly Hills, 90210. During the show’s ten-year production, he met Playmate Nikki Schieler. In 1997, they were officially referred to as husband and wife. However, their love didn’t survive long, and their marriage ended in divorce before the end of 2002. Tumultuous media remarks followed this. Schieler had said that she did not receive any monthly assistance after the divorce and had depleted all of her money. She also said that she had to put up with people wrongly accusing her of marrying the star for money. Ziering responded to these charges with formal comments stating that he had, in fact, rewarded her far and over his fair share.
