Although LaMarcus maintains a successful career, the same cannot be said regarding his personal life. He has been a participant in a failed relationship in the past. The NBA star was romantically linked with Chelsy McDaniel. In late 2008, Chelsy became pregnant with LaMarcus’ first child.

The player left a playoff match and flew to San Antonio to see his son's birth. Jaylen Lea Aldridge was born on the 23rd of April 2009.
