Biographie

Loring married her childhood sweetheart, Farrell Foumberg, and had a daughter at the age of 16. Her second husband was actor Doug Stevenson, who was a contract performer on another CBS/Procter and Gamble soap opera Search for Tomorrow, with whom she had a second daughter.

In 1987, Loring married pornographic actor Jerry Butler. They met on the set of the 1987 adult film, Traci's Big Trick, on which Loring worked as a make-up artist. In the ensuing years of their marriage, she voiced her dissatisfaction with Butler's continued involvement in pornography, and eventually Butler began secretly participating in porn shoots without her knowledge. In an interview with Dateline NBC in the 1990s, Butler described himself as "addicted to the lifestyle", ashamed of his clandestine behavior and its effect on his marriage. The couple later appeared on the Sally Jesse Raphael Show, again discussing the damage Butler's porn career was causing to their marriage. Butler and Loring divorced in 1992, which was also the year he began to drop out of the hardcore industry, and evidently by choice virtually disappeared from the public eye for many years.

Loring had a heroin addiction in her thirties, recovering in 1992. She returned to acting in 2011.
