Kimberlee Autry Is Alan Autry’s Wife Who Once Dabbled in Acting
Kimberlee Autry and Alan Autry were both divorcees when their romance began, and had children from their previous marriages. Although they kept their relationship relatively private, online records show that their union nearly ended in divorce.
Kimberlee Autry has been married to Alan Autry since 1994. The couple are parents to a son, Austin Autry, born in 1996, and are a blended family of five with Alan's daughter, Lauren Brown, and Kimberlee's daughter, Heather Autry.
Kimberlee has cultivated a loving relationship with all their children, though her marriage with Alan was seemingly on the rocks at some point. Although acting hasn't been her primary focus career-wise, it was a family affair on a few occasions.

Kimberlee Autry's Acting Stints and Career Focuses
Kimberlee's first onscreen credit dates back to 2002, in the western "The Legend of Jake Kincaid." She played Emma alongside her husband, who portrayed the eponymous Jake. Lauren also appeared in the film as Becky, while young Austin played a Townsperson.
Kimberlee and Lauren then reprised their roles in the sequel, "Forgiven," in 2011. A few years later, Kimberlee shared a few throwback pictures from the movie set on Facebook. "Forgiven" and "The Legend of Jake Kincaid" are currently the only two films she is known to have starred in.
Outside of entertainment, she works in business and politics. It's unknown when or with which degree, but she graduated from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. Per her online resume, she has been the CEO of Green Propert Development since 1996.
Kimberlee has also been the Field Coordinator and Liaison for US Congressmen in Fresno, California, since 2011. Additionally, she has served as the liaison officer for the Fresno Grizzlies since 2012.

A Look Inside Kimberlee Autry and Alan Autry's Marriage
In October 2018, online court records show Kimberlee filed for divorce from Alan in Fresno County Superior Courts. The reason for her petition is unknown, but it was dismissed the following year in November.
The couple never publicized the matter, as they have guarded their privacy since the beginning of their relationship. And although Alan last appeared on Kimberlee's Facebook page in 2017, their children remain supportive of one another.
Kimberlee Autry and Alan Autry's Kids
Kimberlee's husband is widely known as Alan Autry; however, he was born Carlos Brown, which explains his daughter Lauren's last name. The former NFL star's first marriage was to Lauren's mother, Vicky Autry.
Lauren graduated from DeVry University in 2017. Kimberlee congratulated her on the milestone, writing, "Congratulations, Lauren Lee! Graduate from DeVry University!" alongside a picture of Lauren in her grad attire, surrounded by loved ones.
Three years later, Lauren tied the knot with her husband, Sean. Heather was over the moon for her step-sister, as she gushed, "Sis. I love you so much and so proud of you. I'm so happy to see you happy. Your wedding was a covid wedding, but you still were the most beautiful bride. (sic)"
Heather has shown the same love to her stepbrother, Austin. In September 2023, she raved about her pride for his upcoming film, "Dark Harvest." Austin will star alongside Luke Kirby and Jeremy Davies in the fantasy horror.
The 20-something-year-old is following in his dad's acting footsteps, though Alan has explored other avenues in his career. Like Lauren and Heather, he, too, has been the subject of heartwarming posts by Kimberlee, including an old photo of him and his dad in his first movie set.
