How Old is Chris Potoski?
Chris Potoski is now 52 years old as he was born in 1972, although the actual date of his birth is not known. Of American nationality and White ethnicity, he was brought up in the United States. He spent a good part of his life at a facility known as Eagle Village, which belonged to the state of Michigan. This suggests that he might have been a troubled kid.
Details regarding his childhood, family members, and elementary education, have all remained elusive from the media. Some sources have it that he went to Walled Lake Western High School, but he revealed in an interview that he attended Reed City High School.
From there, he moved to obtain degrees in physiology and kinesiology from Central Michigan University. He was at the college from 1990 to 1994, and it was during this period that he obtained the two bachelor of science degrees he has. By this time, he was released from Eagle Village to start taking care of himself.
Following his education, he stepped into the corporate world and took regular jobs which he did for some time. He took a job with Curative Health Services the same year he graduated from college and rose to the rank of director of business development before he left in the late 1990s. In 2000, he joined National Healing Corporation, which is now Healogics, Inc. Chris started out as a phone-based salesperson and rose to become the corporation’s vice president of business development until 2005 when he called it quits.
How He Became Brandi Love’s Husband
At the time Potoski and Brandi Love tied the knot, the adult star was still Tracey Lynn Livermore as she had not yet changed her name or joined the adult business. Chris and Tracy met for the first time while they were still in college in the early 190s. They dated for some time and then a few days before Valentine’s Day, precisely on February 10, 1994, they got married. The couple left Potoski’s graduation ceremony and moved to Florida and then Mexico where they got married.
What was more interesting in their marriage was the fact that at the time, Brandi was only 19 years old while Potoski was 20. Brandi was born on March 29, 1973, and is currently 51 years old. Although it was in Dearborn, Michigan, that she was born, it was in Plymouth, Michigan, that she was raised. The actress went to Central Michigan University and it was while there that she met and got married to Chris.
The couple has been married for 30 years thus far, and according to Chris Potiski’s wife, one of the things she appreciates about her husband and which might have helped their marriage to last long is the support he always gives to her. More so, they ensure that their work does not interfere with their family life.
Chris and Brandi Love Are Blessed With Kids
The marriage between Chris and Brandi has not only lasted more than two decades but it is also blessed with amazing kids. Although it has been reported that they have just a daughter, Brandi said they have more than a child.
Their only known daughter was born in 2000, which means she is now 24 years old. Her exact date of birth and other personal details about her are unknown, but according to AmoMama, the name of Chris Potoski’s daughter is Tracey Lynn Livermore, which will mean that she was named after her mother.
The couple revealed that after they had their daughter, Love’s parents who were both religious and conservative, wanted the little child to be taken away from the parents because of their lifestyle which they felt was not healthy for their daughter.
Nonetheless, Chris Potoski and his wife have always maintained that they put their kids first in whatever they do. They spend so much time with their children since their birth, and even as they continue to grow. Brandi revealed in an interview that whenever she is not there with the kids, her husband is there every morning as well as when the kids are back from school.
Even with the nature of their work, Chris and his wife have put much effort into making sure that their kids have a very normal lifestyle. It is because of this that they also attend events with the kids and take advantage of the flexibility of their jobs for the benefit of their kids.
