Hayne's current wife, Margaret Hayne, joined Urban Outfitters in August 1982. He and his wife have been criticized for donating about $13,000 to then-senator Rick Santorum until 2006, when Santorum lost his seat to Bob Casey, Jr. They also were criticized after Urban Outfitters hastily retracted a shirt advocating support for same-sex marriage in the wake of the passage of California's Prop 8 in 2008. The company later partnered with the National Center for Lesbian Rights to release a different shirt expressing support for same-sex marriage in 2009. He has avoided stating his own views on homosexuality. The company also partnered with gay YouTuber Connor Franta to sell a limited clothing line at their eight largest stores to raise money for GLSEN. The Haynes have five children, David, Jonathan, Sarah, Annesley ’12, and Judson. They reside in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, where they operate the Doe Run Dairy farm.
