From the Wrestling Ring to Family Life: All About Tyrus’ Wife Ingrid Murdoch
For fans of professional wrestling, political commentary, and family‑centric stories alike, the life of George “Tyrus” Murdoch is as fascinating outside the ring as it was inside it. But beyond Tyrus’s muscular frame, booming voice, and outspoken media persona lies a quieter — yet equally powerful — figure: his wife, Ingrid Murdoch. A fitness entrepreneur, devoted mother, and partner in life’s many adventures, Ingrid plays a central role in the story of one of wrestling’s most intriguing families.
Who Is Ingrid Murdoch? Early Life and Background
Ingrid Murdoch (née Rinck) is an entrepreneur and fitness professional whose life story is one of transformation and drive. While public details about her early childhood and education are not broadly published, her later life reflects a deep commitment to health, family, and self‑improvement.
Inspired by her own journey of health transformation — including losing a significant amount of weight through conscious diet and exercise — Ingrid built a career in fitness that spanned over two decades. Her experiences not only shaped her outlook but also helped her build a brand and business that reflected her values: whole‑person wellness, discipline, and empowerment through healthy living.
From Personal Trainer to Entrepreneur
Ingrid’s journey into the world of fitness and health began with personal training. Over 20 years, she honed her expertise, helped others transform their lives, and earned a reputation for dedication and authenticity. Inspired in part by her son’s health needs — her son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes during childhood — Ingrid began creating carefully portioned meals to manage his dietary needs.
Friends soon took notice, and requests began rolling in for Ingrid’s meal plans. What started as a mother’s love turned into something much bigger — the foundation of a business.
This led to the creation of Sensible Meals, a meal‑prep company designed to help people make healthy, portion‑controlled food choices as part of a sustainable lifestyle. As her entrepreneurial instincts strengthened, Ingrid went on to found The Rinck Routine, a brand focused on holistic health and fitness — including workouts, balanced nutrition, and routines for everyday living.
In 2024, she even made the bold decision to rebrand her work, distancing her business identity from her birth name and embracing a new chapter in her professional journey — a testament to her personal growth and commitment to authenticity.
George Murdoch, better known in the wrestling world (and beyond) as Tyrus, made his name as a professional wrestler before transitioning into television commentary, acting, and media. While Tyrus’s public persona — fierce in the ring, confident and outspoken on screen — might give the impression of a hard shell, his personal life tells a story of depth, vulnerability, and devotion.
Ingrid and Tyrus first crossed paths more than a decade ago. Their relationship blossomed into a deep romantic and personal bond that has endured many chapters of life and career. Over the years, the couple became inseparable — partners in both adventure and everyday life.
In April 2020, after years together and raising a child, Tyrus surprised Ingrid with a heartfelt proposal featuring an emerald and diamond engagement ring — a symbolic gesture with deep personal meaning. He wrote on social media at the time:
“Married for years but officially gave her a real proposal. It’s never too late to make things right! This woman is my everything and she deserves the world and it’s my honor she chose me.”
Despite referring to each other as husband and wife casually for years, the pair made it official when they obtained a marriage license on January 6, 2024. The union was celebrated privately with close friends and family, marking a new chapter in their long‑standing relationship.
A Blended Family: Children, Love, and Life Together
One of the defining aspects of Tyrus and Ingrid’s family life is the blended nature of their household. Together they navigate the beautiful complexity of raising children from previous relationships as well as their shared daughter.
In May 2014 — nearly a decade before their marriage — Ingrid and Tyrus welcomed their daughter, Georgie Rose Murdoch. Georgie has become a central figure in their family life, often featured in social media posts and family stories.
As she grows up, Georgie has shown a passion for horses and an affinity for animals — interests her parents have nurtured, especially after the family relocated to a more rural setting.
Children from Previous Relationships
In addition to Georgie, both Ingrid and Tyrus bring children from past partnerships into the family mix — creating a blended home full of energy, love, and often chaos.
Ingrid has two sons from a previous relationship: Rhett and Rock.
Tyrus has three older children from earlier relationships.
Together, the family works to create unity and support, sharing responsibilities, celebrating traditions, and building new memories.
Life on the Farm: A Shift in Pace
After years of city life — primarily in Louisiana — Tyrus and Ingrid made a dramatic lifestyle change in spring 2024, purchasing a farm in northern New Jersey. This move represented more than a change of address; it was a shift toward peace, nature, and family‑centered living.
Their farm life is far from ordinary. The household includes a wide variety of animals — from horses that Georgie adores to exotic reptiles such as turtles, snakes, chameleons, and more — lovingly referred to by Tyrus as the “Tyrus‑zilla Zoo.”
While Ingrid initially admitted she wasn’t a natural animal lover, she took over managing the family’s collection of critters with humor and efficiency:
“If I’m taking charge of something, it’s going to be done right,” she joked — proving that leadership comes in many forms, whether it’s in business or on the farm.
The couple also spends time with horses, which has opened new worlds for Georgie’s equestrian interests and added elements of serenity and purpose to family life.
Supporting Each Other Through Challenges
Like all couples who share both public and private lives, Tyrus and Ingrid have faced challenges together.
One of the most public‑facing was the 2019 sexual harassment lawsuit against Tyrus by his former co‑host, Britt McHenry. The case was dismissed in 2021 with an undisclosed settlement, but the emotional toll was significant. Throughout that period, Ingrid stood beside her husband — not only in public but emotionally — helping navigate the strain of such scrutiny.
In a December 2022 TikTok post, she shared how she, Georgie, and family sought healing and recalibration after a difficult stretch — emphasizing the importance of love, rest, and family connection during hard times.
Ingrid’s Career: Wellness, Resilience, and Reinvention
While much attention gravitates toward Tyrus’s multi‑faceted career — which spans pro wrestling, Fox News commentary, books, and comedy — Ingrid’s story is equally compelling and worthy of its own spotlight.
