The start of Russell and Britney's romance followed the end of his marriage to Danielle Spencer. The former couple were married from April 2003 until April 2018, when their divorce was finalised. They had announced their separation in October 2012. Together they share two sons, Charles, 18, and 15-year-old Tennyson.

In July 2020, Russell made rare comments about his sons in an interview with Australia's Sunrise. He joked that Charles and Tennyson had decided to quarantine with their mother because food delivery services would reach her house.

"When I asked the boys, they said they will choose Uber Eats over my paternal care. I wasn't too impressed about that," he joked. "My boys live with their mom and they're pretty well settled there."

Danielle and Russell remain on good terms and she sent a public message to her ex in April in honour of his birthday – just eight days after the death of his beloved father, John.
