At present, Joy is neither married nor dating a boyfriend, at least not in the public domain. In the past some years, Joy hasn’t talked much about her personal life, especially about her relationships.
Further, posts on her social media handles also don’t give a clue about her current love life. As a result, we like to conclude that the Fox Star host is currently single.
Joy Taylor Was Previously Married To Ex-Husband Richard Giannotti
On 13 February 2016, Joy tied the knot with Richard Giannotti, a professional baseball player for the LA Angels in a lavish wedding ceremony in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The couple first met at some business event and fell in love with each other. Before marriage, they dated for a year and eventually got married.

But, unfortunately, their marriage lasted just for a year, and by 2017, the duo got divorced. As of today, the former flames haven’t revealed the reason behind their separation.
Joy’s Relationship After Her Divorce: She Was Engaged To Earl Watson
Shortly after Joy separated from her ex-spouse, she started dating Earl Watson, an American professional basketball coach, and former player. The couple got engaged on Sunday, September 2018, and soon Joy took her Instagram to share the good news.

Posting her cozy picture together with Watson, she captioned, “My Forever,” and also show-off her dazzling diamond ring. But a year later in November 2019, the duo called off their wedding without specifying the reasons at the then time.
Did Taylor Suffer Domestic Abuse In A Relationship?
Yes, Taylor battled domestic violence in a relationship but not in a romantic one which means none of her partners abused her as claimed by some online sources.
Based on her revelation in the 2nd Wind podcast, she actually grew up with her parents who had substance abuse problems. So, it’s her childhood that suffered abuse, not her love life. Due to her past bad experiences, she now actively speaks for the survivor of Domestic violence, either male or female. Back on July 15, 2021, she voiced against violence against males on her Twitter and tweeted,
Domestic Abuse is not limited to women. Keep the same energy when it’s a man who is a victim. It can be extremely difficult for men to talk about physical, emotional, mental, financial and/or sexual abuse because they are met with jokes and judgement. Abusers are wrong, period.
She actively advocates for those survivors who went through some tough times in their lives.
