Early life and education

Stacie Zabka only came to the limelight after getting married to William Zabka in 2008. Nothing had ever been heard of her in the public domain before that time. That, coupled with the fact that she is a very private person, has contributed to the unavailability of any information about her childhood and early life on the internet.

The much that is known is that she was born in May 1974 in Missouri, US, where she had her early childhood. Asides from this, there is no available information about Stacie’s early life or educational background at the time of writing this article. Multiple sources say she was an active student in high school and engaged in many curricular and extracurricular activities organised within the school.

Career

Stacie is a successful businesswoman who is worth between $100,000 and $200,000. There is no information about her line of business and/or its practice at the moment.

Personal life and family

Stacie Lynn Doss met William Zabka in the early 2000s. It was at the time when his career was booming. The two dated each other for a couple of years before eventually saying their vows and giving their union a legal status in a private ceremony in 2008. The year 2021 makes it 13 years since they have been married.

The couple took their time to establish stability before they began procreation. Though it is unclear when they welcomed their first son, some sources referred to him as a ‘nine-year-old’ in 2021. There is no information about the second child and when the couple had him/her. Their second child, however, seems to be significantly younger than the first.
