At the root of the VH1 show, despite having "single" in the title, was the fact that Baio was in a long-term relationship with Renee Sloan—whom he met at one of his then-favorite haunts the Playboy Mansion in the '90s and reconnected with some time later—and he knew he had to move forward with her or move on. They steered clear of each other for eight weeks during filming while he sorted himself out, per his life coach's orders, and he ended up proposing at the end. Their L.A. wedding was featured on the second season, Scott Baio Is 46…and Pregnant, in reference to Sloan's expectant status.
Sloan, who is also mom to a now 28-year-old daughter, was pregnant with twins and sadly they lost one at around 12 weeks. They welcomed their daughter, Bailey, five weeks early in 2007, but she was home in time to be the guest of honor at her parents' wedding. When she was first born, however, the doctor told Scott and Renee that Bailey had tested positive for a rare and possibly fatal metabolic disorder, but further testing was needed to know for sure.
When Bailey was 10 weeks old, her relieved parents found out she was actually fine—but stricken by what they went through not knowing, the Baios started the Bailey Baio Angel Foundation to raise awareness and funds for children with metabolic disorders and their families.
