Tanya Harding’s Ex-Husband Marries Portland Beautician

The former Jeff Gillooly has a new wife.

Tonya Harding’s ex-husband, who changed his name to Jeff Stone while imprisoned for conspiring to attack figure skater Nancy Kerrigan, married Nancy Nicole Sharkey on Aug. 17. The ceremony was in the garden at the Columbia Gorge Hotel.

“I couldn’t be happier,” said Nancy Stone this week. “With everything that’s happened and Jeff’s notoriety, good and bad, for the first time it finally feels like it’s over.”

The couple met when she did his nails in 1991.

Romance evolved about three years later after a lapse in their relationship and “after everything happened,” she said.

She waited through his seven-month sentence at a prison boot camp, visiting him every weekend.

“I don’t hold it against him,” she said of the attack. “I think everybody makes mistakes.

“My family knows I’m a good judge of character,” she said.

The pair runs Nancy Nicole’s Tanning and Beauty salon in Portland.

They are the parents of 6-month-old Haley Nicole.
