Though Deanna wasn’t one for the spotlight, she attended some industry events with Rick.

She, however, drew the line at appearing in episodes of his TV series, firmly staying away from it. Despite her aversion to the spotlight, she and Rick got along quite well, and it wasn’t quite long before the pawn shop owner popped the big question. Rick Harrison proposed to Deanna Burditt on Valentine’s Day, 2013.

For the proposal, he took her to the Aureole Restaurant, where they had their first date, and presented her with a two-and-a-half-carat diamond ring, and she said yes to him. The engagement made the news. Harrison described himself as the happiest guy alive and added that he was living the dream.

The couple became a fan favorite, and many thought that they would go the long haul. This was, however, not to be as Deanna Burditt and Rick Harrison got divorced in 2020. The news of the couple’s divorce only filtered out a year later, and many were quite shocked to hear of it.

Reports by TMZ show that it was Harrison that filed for divorce on the 1st of July 2020 in Nevada. The primary reason was irreconcilable differences. His filing also stated that he and Burditt’s tastes, mental dispositions, views, likes, and dislikes had grown so divergent that they had become incompatible with marriage.

The divorce was shaping up to be a contentious one when Burditt initially claimed alimony, but she and Harrison were able to reach an amicable settlement, and the divorce became final in September 2020. The exact amount the legal secretary got is not known, but it could be in the 7-figure region.
