Gary Dell’Abate’s Wife’s Age and Family Background
Apart from the fact that she is an American of European descent, nothing is known about Mary Dell’Abate’s family background and upbringing. Even her age which according to several reports is 63, cannot be authenticated. These reports have it that she was born on the 14th of March 1961. This is Gary Dell’Abate’s date of birth and not that of his wife. But based on Mary’s looks and the age of her husband, it might not be too wrong to suggest that she is in her late 40s or early 50s as of this writing.
Mary’s surname before she got married to Gary was Caracciolo. This is an Italian surname and it suggests that the family she came from has an Italian heritage, just like her husband’s. Gary was born in Brooklyn, New York City, but raised in Uniondale, also in New York. He was born into an Italian-American family; to Salvatore who was an ice-cream salesman and Ellen (née Cotroneo).
Mary Dell’Abate’s Height—How Tall Is Gary Dell’Abate’s Wife?
As it is with her age, Mary Dell’Abate’s height is not known, but it is as clear as crystal that she is a very tall woman. As a matter of fact, that’s why people have been curious to know exactly how tall she is. Mary stands taller than her husband in pictures and whenever they are seen together. Now, Gary Dell’Abate’s height is 5 feet 9 inches (1.7 m/175 cm) and his wife is taller than that.
Based on the above, some platforms have reported that Mary Dell’Abate is an inch taller than her husband. It is claimed that she stands at 5 feet 10 inches (1.78 m/178 cm). This may not be exactly how tall she is but it is an intelligent guess of her height. One thing that is certain is that she is taller than most American women and indeed most women across the globe.
Though she doesn’t have much of a career in showbiz, she is taller than most men and women thereof, including the likes of Ahmarie Holmes and Oona O’Brien.
What Is Her Net Worth?
Among other things, Mary Dell’Abate’s net worth is one of the often asked questions about her. We don’t know why this is so, but it is not unusual for people to be inquisitive about the wealth of the spouse of a famous celebrity. Details of what Mary does for a living are best known to her. We can only tell that she appeared in at least five episodes of the TV series, Howard Stern on Demand; this was between 2006 and 2007.
Based on the fact that her career engagements are not privy to the public, it is hard to tell what she’s worth. Any figure that has been quoted as her net worth is nothing but a wild guess. However, it is guess-estimated by several platforms that her husband Gary Dell’Abate is worth at least $14 million.
Gary accumulated most of his wealth through his career as a radio producer. He is the executive producer of one of the most popular American radio shows, The Howard Stern Show. Gary has been executing the production of the show since 1984. He has also made good money through his autobiography titled They Call Me Baba Booey. Reports have it that he signed a mid-6 figure deal for the book released in 2010.
Gary and Mary Dell’Abate Have Been Married Since 1992 and Are Parents to Two Sons
The couple’s love story, if all that has been reported about them is factual, began in 1990 when they met for the first time on the Howard Stern Show. Details of the circumstances surrounding this meeting are not known, just as it is hard to tell how they fell in love and eventually started dating.
From what we gathered, they took to each other and became friends after they met and it soon bloomed into a romantic relationship. If Gary and Mary Dell’Abate truly met in 1990, then they dated for roughly two years before they got married. They got married on the 3rd of July 1992 and have remained together ever since.
Apart from some unfounded speculations that Gary cheated on his wife, their marriage has been devoid of any drama. It wouldn’t be out of place to assert that they have been happily married for nearly three decades. Their union has been blessed with two sons named Lucas and Jackson Dell’Abate.
Mary Is a Proud Mother of Two
Jackson is the first child Mary Dell’Abate had with her famous husband. He was born about two years into the marriage, precisely on the 27th of October 1994. This means he is 30 years old at the moment.

Her first son Jackson is a graduate of Syracuse University, he graduated from the institution in 2016.
