She has often been erroneously thought to be related to Christian Slater, a myth fueled not only by their surnames, though Slater is not the original surname of either of them, but also by their portrayal of sister and brother in The Legend of Billie Jean.
She wed Robert Watzke in 1990. The couple has one child, Hannah Nika, born on August 28, 1995.
In 2004, Slater became a recording artist, revealing her long time efforts as a songwriter, with her release of the CD One of these Days, followed in 2005 by Crossword.
