Johnathan Hillstrand is a married man who has walked down the aisle twice in the past. There is no information regarding his first marriage as he maintained a rather private life. The union was long before his coming by fame and fortune and produced two sons.

The second woman to become his wife is Heather Hamilton. The two dated long enough before deciding to tie the knot. It was reported that they first met in church before they started dating and after a long time they got married in 2017.

In 2017, tragedy struck when a member of hisCrew, while working on the ship (Time Bandit), lost his right hand and forearm due to the explosion of a firecracker in the launcher he was handling. Because of the tragedy that ended his fishing career, he sued Johnathan and his brother, who were then forced to pay him $1.4 million.
