Personal life

For six years, she had had a real-life relationship with Matt Hardy, until he broke up with her in late February 2005. The split occurred because Lita had sexual relations with fellow WWE wrestler Edge. The fallout of the affair led to Matt Hardy's release. On April 18, 2005, Lita's appearance in Madison Square Garden was met with jeers and calls for Matt Hardy by a significant section of the audience. Similar chants were directed at her the following week during her backstage interview, but since the show was pre-taped in front of a British audience the chants were edited out in the American broadcast.

 

In May 2005 Lita was aligned with Copeland onscreen. She was rumored to have expressed slight discontent with this storyline as she still claimed to have "feelings" for Matt. In addition, the storyline was seen as tasteless by Hardy himself along with many smarks.
