Mike Vogel's Wife and Kids: Inside the Actor's Family Life with Courtney Vogel
Courtney Vogel, Mike Vogel's wife, has been by the actor's side for two decades yet maintains a low profile. Although she does not have social media, her husband does, and fans see a glimpse of Mike Vogel's children and his happy marriage.
Mike's career has seen a spike in popularity since landing the role of Cooper Connelly on Netflix's "Sex/Life," where he plays a husband whose relationship is on the rocks. However, off-screen, Mike is one half of a happy couple that celebrated twenty years of marriage.
Mike was an actor on the rise when he married Courtney—a teenager; since then, they have welcomed three children, and the actor shared that the birth of their second child was a near-death experience for his wife.

Mike Vogel Has Been Happily Married to Courtney Renee Raborg for Two Decades
Courtney and Mike tied the knot in 2003 when she was 18 and he was 24. It was the same year Mike was cast in his first movie, and in 2021, the actor took to Instagram to celebrate his and Courtney's 18th anniversary. He wrote:
"18 years ago today, this stunning woman and I walked down the aisle together when she was 18. We have lived half of her life together. That's so amazing to me.... I am honored to walk this life with her. She is my 'chai,' my 'life,' and I cherish her."
It is unclear what Courtney does in her professional life as she is a private person and does not have a social media presence. However, she has supported her husband's career over the years.

Courtney has been by Mike's side during numerous red-carpet appearances. In 2013, Mike shared a throwback of him and Courtney at the premiere of his film, "Cloverfield," and shared that he was "one lucky man."
In 2014, in honor of their 11th wedding anniversary, Courtney's husband dedicated an Instagram post to her and typed, "11 years ago today, these two crazy kids got hitched. Beyond blessed to have her as my wife and to wake up to this face every morning."
Years later, Courtney and her husband took a trip to France, and Mike documented their sightseeing on his Instagram with a black and white snap of them standing in front of the Eiffel tower. "The rain only enhances the beauty of Paris," he wrote.

Mike and Courtney Raise Three Adorable Children Together
In 2007, Courtney and her husband became parents for the first time when they welcomed their eldest daughter, Cassy Renee Vogel. In honor of her 11th birthday, Mike shared a picture of his daughter, and in the caption, he wrote:
"11 years ago today, I became a father for the first time. I delivered her in my favorite cowboy boots and hat, almost dropped her, and was instantly smitten.... She will be the greatest thing in some man's life someday..."
Years later, Courtney gave birth to their second daughter, Charlee Bea Vogel. However, it was a life-threatening experience for the actor's wife, as during a birthday tribute to Chareel, Mike shared, "Hard to believe I almost lost her and her momma during her birth."
Since then, the couple's daughters have made multiple appearances on their father's page as he shared his first daddy-daughter trip to Florida with Cassy in 2014, his Valentine's Day date with Charlee that same year, and beach trips.
In 2013, Mike introduced the couple's third child, Gabriel James Vogel, to the world via social media, and in 2017, he posted a picture of him and his children showing their support for NASCAR driver Trevor Bayne.
