Trauma and Trouble
In a few interviews Lana has revealed that she had experienced some sort of trauma that altered the course of her life.

After dropping out of school, Lana found acceptance with a group of kids, whom she calls ‘hippie criminals’. She said they like to commit robberies and hanging out with them was a bad influence as it landed her in prison. She was sentenced to 5 years but only served 1 year.

She revealed that her home life was not great and to escape, she would immerse herself in the tv series, ‘The Girls Next Door’.

She said in an interview that it was really difficult for him to deal with her being in porn. People would send him videos, make comments and he would look her up on sites and it was hard for him to see his wife in those situations. After a tumultuous relationship, they have divorced.
