MiniBio

She’s the talented actress best known for playing Bernie’s wife, Wanda, on the beloved comedy series The Bernie Mac Show—a role that really put her on the map. Over the years, she continued to build an impressive resume, including a standout performance as the first Lady Katherine Johnson on the sitcom The First Family back in 2012. Then, in 2014, she took on a new challenge by joining the cast of the Syfy series Z Nation, where she brought the character Warren to life with depth and charisma.

Before all the fame and spotlight, her journey began with a small but meaningful appearance on Living Color, which marked her first step into acting. Growing up, she split her time between Chicago, Illinois—where she was actually born—and Oakland, California, where she was primarily raised. It was in these communities that she first discovered her passion for performance, participating in local theater productions that helped shape her craft.

Throughout her career, she’s remained grounded, letting her work speak for itself. Whether it’s comedy or drama, she brings authenticity to every role. And while her name might not always be the first mentioned in Hollywood conversations, her impact is undeniable. She’s proven time and again that talent, perseverance, and heart can carry a career far.

Actress Film Television

A young Canadian actress named Kacey Rohl appeared to burst onto the entertainment scene almost out of nowhere in 2010, making her mark with appearances in no fewer than six different television productions that year. Among these, she had supporting roles in two Lifetime television movies—*"The Client List"* and *"Bond of Silence"*—while also showing up in episodes of four separate sci-fi or fantasy series. Of those, one of the more well-known was the dramatic series *"Caprica,"* a spin-off of *"Battlestar Galactica,"* and the popular show *"Fringe,"* in which she portrayed the sister of a man struggling with extraordinary mental abilities. The year following, Kacey Rohl made her debut on the big screen with a supporting role in the dark and emotionally charged fairy tale *"Red Riding Hood,"* which starred Amanda Seyfried, Virginia Madsen, and Gary Oldman. Then, after a guest spot on the youth-targeted horror anthology *"R.L. Stine's The Haunting Hour,"* she landed a recurring role in the acclaimed mystery drama *"The Killing"* as Sterling Fitch. This particular opportunity was especially convenient for Rohl, given that part of the filming took place near her hometown of Vancouver. Clearly, Rohl wasn’t one to take a break, even with her packed schedule. In addition to all of this, she also appeared in Canadian productions such as *"Sunflower Hour,"* a comedic satire poking fun at children's television, and the lighthearted series *"Sisters & Brothers."*

Country Singer

The country singer, known for her authentic storytelling and heartfelt lyrics, made a big splash in the music scene after finishing 7th on *Nashville Star* back in 2007. Though she didn’t win the competition, it was just the beginning for her. Fast forward to 2013, and she released her critically acclaimed debut album, *Same Trailer Different Park*, which went on to win a Grammy—proving that her talent was undeniable. That same year, the country music world took even greater notice when she was honored as New Artist of the Year at the CMA Awards. Her success continued into 2014 when “Follow Your Arrow,” a song she co-wrote with Shane McAnally and Brandy Clark, took home the Song of the Year award at the CMAs. The track became an anthem for individuality and solidified her reputation as a bold, honest voice in country music. Before all the awards and spotlight, though, she was already hard at work. She independently released three albums prior to her appearance on *Nashville Star*, showcasing early dedication to her craft. Songs like “Apologize” and “See You Again” helped build her foundation and connect with fans long before mainstream fame found her. Born in the small town of Alba, Texas, she grew up with strong roots and a close-knit family, including a younger sister who’s been part of her journey behind the scenes. In December 2016, she got engaged to musician Ruston Kelly—a moment that delighted fans. They tied the knot in October 2017, but unfortunately, the couple announced their separation in 2020, with both sharing heartfelt messages about mutual respect and growth. Later on, she found love again with poet and writer Cole Schafer. The two reportedly met at a crowded restaurant, sparking what seemed like a quiet but meaningful connection. However, by early 2024, news emerged that they had gone their separate ways. Through every chapter—music milestones, personal highs, and public heartbreaks—she’s remained a resilient and influential figure in modern country music.
