Who is Lisa Thorner?

Lisa Thorner is an American retired model and actress, however, she’s probably best known to the world as the ex-wife of the American star actor and comedian Damon Wayans.

Lisa Thorner Wiki: Age, Childhood, and Education

Lisa Thorner was born in 1974 in the USA. Despite her popularity, Lisa, has successfully hidden most of her personal information, including her exact date and place of birth. Moreover, she hasn’t revealed the names of her parents and any siblings. Of African-American ancestry, her education also remains a mystery.

Popularity Through Marriage

Lisa and Damon met at the career beginning of the Primetime Emmy Award-nominated actor and comedian, on a set of a film on which they worked together, and soon after started dating. The couple married on 24 April 1984, the same year when Damon made his acting debut with a small role in the comedy film “Beverly Hills Cop”. Damon’s career was quickly developing, and he was turning into a star alongside his siblings, which also affected Lisa. Everybody wanted to know about Damon’s mysterious wife, but she found a way to disconnect herself from all the glitz and glamour that the entertainment industry offers.

She focused on being a stay-at-home-mom and raising their four children, who are now all successful in their own right.

Divorce and Later Life

Unfortunately, after years of apparent happiness, problems started brewing in the Wayans-Thorner household, and in 1999 Damon filed for divorce. The process was finalized the following year, with Lisa receiving a hefty settlement.

Since the divorce, Lisa has continued to live a life away from the media buzz, but sometimes features in her children’s social media posts. Lisa currently lives in Beverly Hills, in a house she received as part of the divorce settlement. She hasn’t talked about her love life after divorcing Damon, but it’s believed that Lisa is single.

Lisa Thorner’s Ex-Husband, Damon Wayans Short Bio

Born Damon Kyle Wayans on 4 September 1960, in New York City, USA, he’s one of ten children born to Howel Stouten Wayans, a supermarket manager, and his wife Elvira Alethia, a homemaker, singer and social worker. He has four brothers, Keenen, Shawn, Dwayne and Marlon, and five sisters, Elvira, Nadia, Kim, Vonnie and Diedra.

He went to Murry Bergtraum High School, then started pursuing a career in stand-up comedy in the early ‘80s. Damon made his acting debut in 1984, in the action-packed comedy film “Beverly Hills Cop”, with Eddie Murphy in the lead role. He was a part of the “Saturday Night’s Live” cast as a featured performer from 1985 to 1986, however, he was fired for improvising during a live sketch – instead of playing a straight cop, he was a rather flamboyant gay cop, which created rage with the producer and director.

Since making his debut, Damon’s appeared in 40 film and TV titles, and some of his most popular roles include as Jimmy Dix in the film “The Last Boy Scout” (1991), then various characters he played in the comedy sketch show “In Living Color”, which he wrote with his brother Keenen; as Michael Kyle in the TV series “My Wife and Kids” (2000-2005), and recently as Roger Murtaugh in the TV series “Lethal Weapon” (2016-2019).

According to sources, Damon Wayans’s net worth has been estimated to be around $35 million as of late 2021, earned largely through his successful career as an actor.

Following his divorce from Lisa, Damon has continued with his love life, and since 2003 has been in a relationship with Charity Duplechan.

Damon is the only Wayans brother not to appear in the “Scary Movie” franchise.
