She’s best known in the wrestling world as Peaches, a memorable persona she portrayed during her time with Extreme Championship Wrestling. As a former wrestling manager, she made quite a name for herself on the ECW scene, especially during the 1990s. Her real identity became closely tied to the ring, where she managed several notable wrestlers—among them, Tommy Cairo and, most famously, her real-life husband, The Sandman. Speaking of The Sandman, his real name is Jim Fullington, and their relationship wasn’t just part of the show—they actually got married and built a life together off-camera.

Over the years, Peaches became more than just a character—she became a fan favorite.
Off the mat, she and Jim Fullington, a.k.a. The Sandman, raised a family together. They’re proud parents to three children: Kelly, Tyler, and Oliver. Life after wrestling has kept her grounded, but her legacy as Peaches still resonates with fans who remember that bold era of ECW. Whether you call her by her stage name or recognize her behind-the-scenes role, one thing’s clear—Peaches left a lasting mark.
She’s best known by her ring name, which actually draws inspiration from the classic Pat Ballard song “Mr. Sandman.” You know, the one with that memorable line—“like peaches and cream”?

Over time, fans have come to associate her not just with the music, but with the sweet, smooth imagery the lyric evokes. Her ring name really does carry that same kind of charm.
