Howard Stern has spent decades redefining radio and pop culture. Now 71, the self-proclaimed “King of All Media” became a household name through his wildly popular—and often controversial—Howard Stern Show, which moved to SiriusXM in a landmark deal that changed the future of satellite radio. Along the way, he authored bestsellers like Private Parts and Miss America, starred in a film adaptation of his life, and brought his sharp commentary to primetime as a judge on America’s Got Talent. But as his contract nears its end, reports suggest The Howard Stern Show may soon be coming to a close.
Still, Stern’s biggest legacy may be at home. He shares three daughters—Emily Beth, Deborah Jennifer, and Ashley Jade—with his first wife, Alison Berns. The couple married in 1978 and welcomed their daughters in 1983, 1986, and 1993. His youngest, Ashley, reportedly married her fiancé Adam in June 2023.

Emily Beth Stern was born on May 7, 1983, in Long Island, New York and definitely takes after her father’s creative personality as she is a singer, actress and artist. After completing her Theatre degree at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, Emily appeared in several stage productions. However, there was a bit of a scandal when she was cast in an off-Broadway production called Kabbalah, where the cast was asked to do scenes in the nude. When the show got mixed reviews, the director allegedly used Emily’s family name and released an unauthorized video of her almost nude to promote the production, according to The Things. With the help of her father’s lawyers, she was able to break out of the contract.
Afterwards, she began to focus on Jewish faith and enrolled at the Drisha Institute to become a Torah Scholar, studying scriptures of the Old Testament. She also has had galleries of her photography. And in 2012, Emily released an album of original songs call Birth Day, which includes “Remembering Love” and “Love the Child Who Cries.”
Born May 9, 1986, Deborah tried her hand in the Hollywood game for a brief moment, as she appeared on the sitcom Parker Lewis Can’t Lose. After a few bit roles in B-movies, Deborah turned her attention to education. She acquired a degree in humanitarian services, a Ph.D. as an ‘Independent Education Consultant’ and a Ph.D in Reading, Writing, and Literacy from the University of Pennsylvania, according to Spock and Christine. She is also the founding partner of Deborah Stern Partners, a brand consultancy firm.
On October 8, 2016, Deborah walked down the aisle with her long-time boyfriend Colin Christy, who is the founder of Hapa Inada Designs. AS they keep a relatively low profile, it is unknown if the couple share any children.
