Kimberly is married to country music star Brad Paisley, and as it turns he first became besotted with her after watching her in Father of the Bride.
He recalled that he saw the film with his then-girlfriend and had a huge crush on Kimberly, and years later asked her to feature in one of his music videos with the pair dating soon after. Sneaky!

In 2023, Kimberly experienced an issue with her voice, telling Today: “I open my mouth to welcome everybody and nothing came out. I had just nothing. My throat was completely clenched.”
The issue behind her vocal loss was a mystery for 18 months until doctors discovered she had paralysis in one of her vocal cords. She’s since had a permanent implant installed into her vocal cord that has thankfully corrected the issue.
