Who is Randy Quaid's wife Evi? All we know

Randy Quaid, the famous actor from National Lampoon's Vacation and Independence Day, is again hitting the headlines after some silence. The actor went trending again after posting an adult-mature video, and his wife, Evi Quaid, left netizens stunned. Though the video has captured people's attention, it raises enough questions as to the life that Randy Quaid and Evi lived, mainly coming out of Hollywood in a puzzling manner.

Evi Quaid is a former model, director, and artist, and rose to add to her notoriety along with her spouse due to their bizarre escapades and legal issues. The couple married in 1989 and are now inseparable, often the talk of the town due to their eccentricities.

Evi initially worked behind the scenes in Hollywood, contributing to projects like the 1987 film The Running Man and producing independent documentaries. However, her career took a backseat as the couple's personal and legal issues began to dominate their lives.

The couple tied the knot in October 1989 at the picturesque San Ysidro Ranch in California. Together, they share two daughters, Charlotte and Kaki Quaid. Over the years, the duo has garnered significant media attention due to their numerous legal issues, including arrests and court cases.

Why did Randy Quaid and his wife disappear from Hollywood?

The Quaids' disappearance from Hollywood wasn't without controversy. The couple faced multiple arrests and legal disputes, including accusations of squatting in a California home they once owned and defrauding innkeepers by failing to pay hotel bills. They claimed they were targeted by "Hollywood star-whackers," an alleged shadowy group they accused of conspiring to harm high-profile actors.

In 2010, Randy Quaid and Evi fled to Canada, seeking asylum and citing persecution. While Randy’s claim was denied, Evi, who holds Canadian citizenship through her father, was granted residency. The couple has since lived an isolated life, occasionally emerging to share their thoughts or creative works on social media.

The Quaids faced accusations of causing over $5,000 in damages to a former property of theirs in Santa Barbara. Claiming their lives were in danger in the U.S., they sought asylum in Canada, citing protections under the Canadian Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.

While Evi Quaid was granted residency through her Canadian lineage, Randy’s application was denied. Despite this, he stayed in Canada without proper documentation until his arrest in 2013, prompting Canadian authorities to initiate deportation proceedings.

In 2015, just days before Randy's scheduled deportation, the couple crossed into Vermont, where U.S. Customs officials detained them, as per reports by The U.S. Sun. On October 15, 2015, they were released and allowed to remain in Vermont without charges. However, they are still wanted in California, where arrest warrants remain active against them, according to state officials.
