While working as a makeup artist on the set of the adult film ‘Traci's Big Trick’ in 1987, Loring met adult film actor Jerry Butler. They married on August 19 that year. However, the years that followed saw Loring expressing her discontent over Butler's continuous association with pornography. This saw Butler continuing his work in pornography productions covertly, without disclosing the fact to Loring.
In the 1990s, during an interview with the weekly American TV news magazine/reality legal show ‘Dateline NBC,’ Butler mentioned that he had become "addicted to the lifestyle." He said that he was ashamed of his behavior and its effect on his marriage. Butler and Loring later discussed how Butler’s porn career was damaging their married life, when they appeared on the American syndicated tabloid talk show known as the ‘Sally Jessy Raphael Show.’ The couple ended their marriage in 1992.
In 2003, Loring married Graham Rich. They, however, separated in 2008. After 6 years of separation, Loring divorced Rich in June 2014.
The diva considered American actor John Astin, who appeared as her reel-life father, ‘Gomez Addams,’ in ‘The Addams Family’ (1964 series), her favorite acting mentor and best friend. She was highly influenced by him.
Lisa Loring died on January 28, 2023, at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, California. She was admitted to the hospital after after "a massive stroke," caused by high blood pressure four days prior. She was 64, and survibved by her daughters, Vanessa and Marianne.
