Who Is Kevin O'Leary's Wife? All About Linda O'Leary

Kevin O'Leary and his wife, Linda O’Leary, married in 1990

Kevin O’Leary found his own Mrs. Wonderful in his wife, Linda O’Leary.

While the Shark Tank investor stars on the ABC business reality TV series, his wife of over 30 years is dedicated to their joint ventures behind the scenes.

In particular, Linda is the vice president of marketing at O'Leary Wines and said on Instagram in 2021 that she's "proud" of how far it's come since it's inception.

Despite their busy schedules, Kevin once explained that no matter where he is traveling for work, the couple stay connected.

“We’ve been married a long time and I always tell people it’s not a destination, marriage is a journey — and I think you have to have a lot of respect for your spouse or your significant other, no question,” Kevin told Closer Weekly in 2019.

So who is Kevin O’Leary’s wife? Here’s everything to know about Linda O’Leary and her relationship with the entrepreneur.

She is a businesswoman

Ahead of the launch of O’Leary Wines in 2016, Kevin spoke highly of his wife’s credibility to serve as vice president of marketing for the brand.

“My wife Linda has a remarkable palate for wine. I am always amazed how she can distinguish one region from another, new world wines from old just from the look, nose and taste. I hide the bottles and she beats me every time,” he shared in an article he penned for HuffPost in 2015. “A marriage based on a good wine cellar can last forever!”

Kevin continued, “I took Linda with me to California and we began working with the Vintage Wine Estate winemakers. I made the decision early on that any wine I put my name on has to be spectacular, so we worked really hard on achieving that goal.”

She and Kevin married in 1990

Kevin and Linda married on March 17, 1990.

During a January 2018 interview with CNBC Make It, he gave insight into their low-key wedding, which took place at their home.

“I said to my wife, ‘Why go in debt?’ Let’s invite our friends over, let’s buy a few cases of beer and I’ll order some pizza,” Kevin said. “We saved a fortune. I was able to put it in my business to start growing it.”

The year prior, in February 2017,  Kevin honored Linda on X (formerly Twitter) alongside a photo of them. “Happy Valentine's Day Linda. When I met you I had nothing, and I'd still be in the same boat without you by my side,” he wrote. “I'm a lucky man.”

Throughout their three-decade marriage, they have experienced challenges, even living apart for several years, according to an interview Kevin gave with the local Canadian news outlet, the Guelph Mercury Tribune in 2014. However, Kevin and Linda "reunited and kept the family together," he told the outlet.

In honor of their 34th wedding anniversary, Linda gave a sweet nod to Kevin. “Young love, reunited love, everlasting love,” she penned. “Happy anniversary my love ❤️.”

She and Kevin share two children

Kevin and Linda welcomed their first child, a daughter named Savannah, on Feb. 18, 1993. Three years later, their son, Trevor, was born on Sept. 22, 1996.

After being raised in Toronto, Savannah is now based in New York City, where she is a “director with a penchant for quirk, whimsy and charm,” according to her bio on her website.

Trevor, meanwhile, studied at McGill University and is an engineer and music maker based in San Francisco.

Linda supports the arts

Whether it’s attending a ballet gala in Canada alongside her husband, or taking in the sights at the Philip Mould Gallery in London, Linda’s Instagram is filled with beautiful photos from her adventures supporting the arts.

In May 2023, she and her daughter took a trip to the Tate Modern Museum, with Linda sharing a series of photos afterward.

Kevin also shares Linda's love of the arts. The couple are part of The National Ballet of Canada’s Impresario Circle, having donated to the Endowment Foundation, according to the company's website.

On her X (formerly Twitter) profile, Linda states that she is a board member of The National Ballet of Canada as well.

Her love for the arts appears to stem back to her father’s work in music. In May 2024, Linda announced the death of her dad in a moving obituary on Instagram.

“I will never forget the sound of his beautiful tenor voice resonating through our childhood home and the many concert halls where he performed,” she shared. “I am so proud of him and everything he achieved. He was an accomplished tenor, choir director, and teacher of music. He was honoured many times, with the Order of Canada being a highlight.”

She enjoys traveling

Whether Linda is golfing or surfing, she shares her travels and adventures on social media.

In October 2023, Linda visited Japan and posted sights from her trip.

“Beautiful Kyoto, with the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, Golden Temple, galleries, Geisha, Matcha Everything, Sushi…. and all its splendour!” she captioned a carousel of photos on Instagram.

A few months later, Kevin shared a biking adventure with his wife in January 2024.

“On on the Wonder Bikes with the Mrs. ! #miamibeach @smithwollensky,” the investor wrote alongside a picture of Linda smiling on a bicycle in Miami.

She is dedicated to giving back

As well as supporting the arts, Kevin and Linda are also involved with charities.

During a 2010 Nuvo interview, the Shark Tank investor revealed that he and Linda choose seven charities to devote time and money to in a five-year period.

“We focus on those charities and we try to make a difference,” he explained. “That’s how people should do it. They should decide what percentage of their income they’re going to give away and then instead of scattering it, get focused. Pick a few institutions that matter to you and give all your money to them.”
