On the podium (video), Killen thanked his co-stars, the show’s creator, his mother and his manager. He ended by saying, “And of course to my beautiful wife, Jez, thank you for sharing your life with me and giving me two amazing children, Kinsey Sioux and Wilder Wolfe. Wilder Wolf, I love you very, very much.” Jez wiped tears in the audience.
Then Kieren suddenly said: “Also, Jez, I want more (children).” Sitting in the audience, Jiezi shyly covered her face with her hands, laughing so hard that the whole audience shouted Huge cheers. Killen continued: “If I win the award, you said, ‘Maybe!’ I really love you.” The audience burst into warm applause and whistles.
Backstage at the ceremony, Killen explained to Deadline: “I’d been asking her for months, and my wife Jez said, ‘Maybe if you win an Emmy.’ Ha.” Ha ha.”
“I didn’t mention it for months, and then I won the Globe and I said, ‘Do you remember what you said?’ and she said, ‘What? No, I don’t remember.’ I reminded her. , so we went back to it and she was nervous all week.”
Killen and Jez met in 2012 and got married on June 22, 2013 in Iowa. The eldest daughter Kinsey was born in September 2019, and the youngest son Wilder was born in August 2021.
After Killen didn’t win the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor in 2020, Jez posted a photo of Killen holding the trophy in his empty hand on IG (click here) and joked that she mightn’t give him a consolation prize. She said: “I am a three-time Ballon d’Or loser. I was pregnant the last time he lost. This time I have no consolation prize to give…”
