From 1980 to 1985, he was married to actress Ella Jolly, with whom he had a daughter named Amanda. In 1988, he met Evi Motolanez on the set of Bloodhounds of Broadway, where she was working as a production assistant. They married in 1989 and later adopted two children,
Charlotte and Kaki.
In recent years the Quaids have been the subject of negative publicity on several occasions. They have been arrested for failure to pay sizable hotel bills and for felony burglary charges; in 2010 they sought asylum in Canada, claiming their lives were at risk. Their tales of a celebrity-murdering group of "Hollywood star whackers" brought them an additional degree of attention but failed to clear them of existing legal charges.
