Marty Raney and his family may be reality stars thanks to Discovery’s Homestead Rescue. But outside of the show, the family truly prefers to keep details about them off the grid. One of his children, Matt Raney, appears on the show, but there’s very little known about his personal life. It begs many to ask if Matt is married and who his wife is. It takes but a glimpse at his social media to recognize Matt Raney’s wife, Katie Raney. And their brood is getting bigger! To help you keep up with the Raneys, we reveal more on Katie Raney here.
Katie Raney’s Family
Born Katie Bird, she is the only girl of three children born to Michael “Mike” Bird and Nancy Schumpert Bird. Her parents were based in Pahoa, Hawaii.
Katie’s father, Mike Bird, worked for the Alaska Division of Emergency Services, HUD Office of Native Programs, and Costal Villages Regional Fund.
