Beckett has been linked to such celebrities as model/sportcaster Leeann Tweeden and country singer Danielle Peck.
On October 18, 2007, Peck was invited by the Cleveland Indians to sing the National Anthem prior to Game 5 of the American League Championship Series between the Red Sox and Indians.
Beckett was the starting pitcher in that game, and some Red Sox fans theorized that her invitation was an attempt by the Indians organization to distract Beckett.
The Indians denied this claim.
It did not seem to affect Beckett, as he beat the Indians with eight innings pitched, five hits, one walk, one earned run, and eleven strikeouts.
In a postgame interview with Beckett, when asked if he was affected by Peck's presence, Beckett replied, "I don't get paid to make those decisions.
She's a friend of mine.
It doesn't bother me at all.
Thanks for flyin' one of my friends to the game so she could watch it for free."
On January 22, 2011, he married Holly Fisher, an aeronautics engineer and former high school classmate.
Josh and Holly have three daughters, Ryann, Sage, and Madison.

Beckett is an avid deer hunter and has been since childhood.
He was the 2002 winner of the Muy Grande Deer Contest for bringing down the largest buck during the Texas deer hunting season.
He owns Herradura Ranch, a 7,000 acres (28 km²) deer-hunting ranch outside of Cotulla, Texas.

He was featured in a Kevin Fowler music video alongside his teammates John Lackey, Tim Wakefield, Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz.

On November 11, 2017, Beckett was arrested for public intoxication as a result of charging at a country band at a local bar in Texas.
The singer received a torn rotator cuff and dislocated shoulder.
