Morty Coyle has spent much of his adult life working in entertainment, but unlike his former wife Jodie Sweetin, his career has largely unfolded away from mainstream television fame.
A DJ, singer-songwriter, actor and composer, Coyle has worked across Los Angeles nightlife, independent music and film. He is perhaps best known to the wider public for his marriage to the Full House and Fuller House actress.
Yet music has remained the central part of his professional identity, with Coyle performing as a DJ and fronting the Los Angeles rock band All Day Sucker.
From Las Vegas to Los Angeles
Coyle was born on 7 December 1968 in Las Vegas, Nevada, and developed a career in entertainment that eventually took him to Hollywood.
His professional work began in the 1990s, when he became involved in club performances, private events and music projects.
Over the years, his work expanded beyond DJing. He became involved in songwriting, acting and music composition while also working within the entertainment industry as a member of SAG-AFTRA.
His career has therefore covered several sides of the business, from live performances and recording to screen appearances and commercial music.
All Day Sucker Became a Major Part of His Music Career
One of Coyle’s longest-running creative projects has been All Day Sucker, a Los Angeles power-pop band he co-founded with Jordan Summers.
The group was originally known as The iMPOSTERS and developed a following through performances at venues including the Viper Room, Opium Den and Sunset Social Club.
Coyle serves as the band’s lead vocalist and songwriter, while Summers has handled keyboards.
The group also became associated with Canter’s Kibitz Room, where its regular performances helped establish a recurring Tuesday-night music scene.
The Band Released Music Across Two Decades
All Day Sucker’s catalogue includes releases dating back to the late 1990s.
Coyle’s songwriting and vocal work can be heard on projects including November Bombs from 1999, Get High from 2004, Home from 2008 and Denim Days from 2015.
The band also contributed to compilation and tribute projects, including a 50th-anniversary tribute connected to Paul and Linda McCartney’s Ram.
When his personal life became a subject of public interest following his split from Sweetin, Coyle chose to direct attention back toward his music.
In comments reported by Us Weekly, he wished Sweetin well and pointed people toward All Day Sucker’s Denim Days rather than discussing their private relationship in detail.
Coyle Has Also Built a Name as a DJ
Away from his band work, Coyle has maintained a long-running career as a professional DJ.
Performing under the name DJ Morty Coyle, he has worked at Hollywood clubs, private parties and celebrity events.
His reported bookings have included events involving celebrities such as Carmen Electra, Dave Navarro, Kirsten Dunst, Paris Hilton, Marilyn Manson, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.
The DJ work has allowed Coyle to remain active within Los Angeles’ entertainment and nightlife scene while maintaining a career separate from his former wife’s acting profile.
Acting Became Another Part of His Creative Career
Coyle has also taken on acting and composing roles.
His screen credits include appearances connected to projects such as Impostor, Macabre Theatre and Sutures.
His work as a composer has similarly allowed him to combine his musical background with film and commercial projects.
Rather than concentrating on one discipline, Coyle has continued to move between music, DJing, acting and composition throughout his career.
His Relationship With Jodie Sweetin Led to a Daughter
Coyle’s private life became considerably more visible through his relationship with Jodie Sweetin.
The couple welcomed their daughter, Beatrix Carlin Sweetin-Coyle, on 31 August 2010.
Coyle proposed to Sweetin at her birthday celebration in January 2011, and the pair married on 15 March 2012 in Beverly Hills.
They initially kept their marriage relatively private and did not publicly announce it until after their first anniversary.
At the time of their engagement, Sweetin spoke warmly about Coyle and described their relationship in highly positive terms.
The Marriage Ended After a Year of Legal Separation
The relationship eventually came to an end, with Sweetin filing for legal separation in June 2013.
Court records cited irreconcilable differences.
The divorce was ultimately finalised in September 2016, ending a marriage that had lasted roughly four years.
Despite the separation, the former couple continued to share responsibility for their daughter.
Coyle and Sweetin Share Custody of Beatrix
Court documents established joint legal and physical custody of Beatrix.
The custody arrangement included provisions concerning the child’s safety, including requirements relating to driving and sobriety.
No child support was ordered when the divorce was finalised in 2016. However, the financial arrangements later changed.
In December 2017, following a petition from Coyle, a judge ordered Sweetin to pay him $2,800 per month in child support, with the decision taking into account her increased earnings from Fuller House.
Sweetin later sought a reduction in the payments after the series ended and her income changed.
Beatrix Has Developed Her Own Interest in Performing
Coyle’s relationship with Beatrix has remained an important part of his life after the divorce.
He has shared aspects of their bond through the social-media account @BeaAndDaddyCarTunes, where the pair have appeared singing together in the car.
Music appears to be a natural connection between father and daughter.
Sweetin has also spoken positively about Beatrix’s talents, describing her as an excellent singer and saying that her younger daughter had developed a strong interest in performing.
Beatrix attends a performing arts school and appears to have inherited some of the family’s creative interests.
Beatrix’s Name Has a Musical Connection
Coyle and Sweetin gave their daughter the name Beatrix Carlin Sweetin-Coyle.
Her middle name, Carlin, was reportedly chosen in honour of comedian George Carlin, while the family has also connected her name to Coyle’s appreciation for The Beatles.
The connection between music and Beatrix’s upbringing has remained visible through Coyle’s social-media posts featuring their singing sessions together.
Coyle Has Kept Working Since the Divorce
While Sweetin continued her acting career following their divorce, Coyle remained focused largely on music and live entertainment.
He has continued performing as a DJ and working with musical projects while maintaining a comparatively low public profile.
His social-media activity has periodically included promotion of DJ events and music performances in Hollywood.
That approach has allowed him to remain active professionally without becoming a constant presence in celebrity news.
Jodie Sweetin’s Family Has Continued to Grow
Sweetin has another daughter, Zoie Herpin, from her earlier marriage to Cody Herpin.
She and Coyle’s daughter Beatrix therefore grew up as half-sisters.
Sweetin has spoken about the changing relationship between her daughters as they have grown older, noting that the two have become closer after moving beyond their middle-school years.
Zoie reached another milestone in 2026 when Sweetin celebrated her high school graduation.
Morty Coyle’s Life Today
Coyle’s public profile today is largely defined by music, DJ work and fatherhood rather than his former marriage.
He continues to be associated with the Los Angeles entertainment scene and has maintained his involvement with music projects.
His relationship with Beatrix is also one of the clearest parts of his public life, particularly through their music-focused social-media content.
For someone who spent years operating around Hollywood’s entertainment industry, Coyle has managed to maintain a career that exists largely on his own terms.
His Net Worth Remains an Estimate
Various entertainment websites have estimated Coyle’s net worth at between $400,000 and $500,000.
There is no publicly verified figure establishing his exact wealth, and the estimates should therefore be treated cautiously.
His reported sources of income include DJ performances, music releases, songwriting, acting, composing and other entertainment work.
A Career That Extends Beyond His Famous Marriage
Morty Coyle may have entered the public conversation primarily because of his marriage to Jodie Sweetin, but his career predates their relationship and has continued long after their divorce.
From fronting All Day Sucker and performing as a DJ to working in acting and composition, Coyle has spent decades developing a diverse creative career.
Today, his story is as much about music and co-parenting as it is about Hollywood connections — with his professional life continuing beyond the four-year marriage that first brought him wider public attention.
