Prior to his relationship with Alexandra, Anthony was married to actress Gia Carides for 17 years. The two share joint custody of their 15-year-old daughter Bridget. He was also previously married to Cherie Michan.

Anthony has spoken candidly about his divorce from Gia, defending their decision to part ways in 2015.

“Twenty years is a long time for any relationship and so many positive and great things came out of it — my daughter being one of them,” he told the Herald Sun.

“It’s an emotionally tough thing to go through but it happens and it’s about adjusting to the fact that people change, life changes.

“With each age bracket you hit, whether you realise it or not, you’re evolving into who you are. And sometimes in a relationship they line up and sometimes they go in opposite directions,” Anthony said of his prior relationship with Gia.
