What We Know About Pawn Stars' Rick Harrison's Kids & Their Moms
Multiple media outlets have reported the passing of Adam Harrison, the son of "Pawn Stars" lead Rick Harrison, at the age of 39. Rick expressed his love for his late son on Instagram, as did Adam's older brother, "Pawn Stars" veteran Corey Harrison. Longtime viewers of the History series may not have been too familiar with Adam. Unlike his brother Corey, he chose to stay far away from the "Pawn Stars" empire.
The Harrison clan has helped put the pawnshop industry on the map thanks to their highly popular and long-running History series. With Rick Harrison leading the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas, the family continues to lure in customers and viewers alike. However, even the most loyal "Pawn Stars" fans may not realize just how big the Harrison family is.
Corey and Adam Harrison were Rick's first children. According to his book, "License to Pawn," Rick's relationship with his first wife, Kim Harrison, endured an early tragedy. The couple's first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. They married soon after in 1982 and welcomed Corey in 1983 and Adam a year later. However, they divorced in 1985. Nearly a year later, Rick met his second wife, Tracy, while on a blind date. The couple were married for 25 years, and according to Rick, Tracy worked alongside him at the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. "She was a great employee," he wrote in 2011, praising her extremely calm manner. However, Tracy left the store in 2003 after giving birth to a son.
Rick Harrison has been married multiple times
Rick Harrison and Tracy welcomed their son, Jake, in 2003. However, in 2011, the couple divorced. Ten years later, "Pawn Stars" fans became a little familiar with Harrison's third son after he made his first appearance on the show. In 2022, Harrison wrote on social media that Jake graduated from high school and was gearing up for college.
In 2013, Harrison married his third wife, Deanna Burditt, the mother of three daughters. They divorced seven years later. However, according to TMZ, it looked as if Harrison still viewed the daughters as his own; when explaining that the decision to split was mutual, Harrison also noted that in his third marriage, he "got three great daughters out of it." As recently as December 2023, Harrison still appeared to be spending time with them, posting photos of them with his other children while celebrating the holidays.
At the time of writing, Harrison is married to his fourth wife, Amanda Palmer, whom he tied the knot with in 2021.
