Sadly, Kay lost her mother, Celestine, in 2009 following a battle with colon cancer.

Apart from Karl, Kay’s brother-in-law was also in the line for an autograph and she asked him about Karl. Her sister, Sharon, having noticed she had an interest in the player, shared her photo with Karl afterward.

Soon after, Karl and Kay started talking and subsequently met, fell in love, and started dating. In the following year, precisely on 24th December 1990 which was on Christmas Eve, they tied the knot at Malone’s home in Salt Lake City. Today, their marriage has lasted for 53 years and still counting.

Kay Has Four Biological Children and Three Stepchildren

That is to say that Kay Kinsey has four children; three daughters and a son from her marriage to the famous former NBA star.

The couple had their first child, Kadee, on 8th November 1991, one year into their marriage. Kade, who is now 32 years old, runs a staples business, dealing in homemade vape juices, hemp oils, and Dominican cigarettes.

Kay Kinsey was Previously a Model and is Now a  Businesswoman.

The wife of Karl is also notable in her own right, besides being a celebrity wife. The mother of four worked as a model in her younger years and in 1988 won the Miss Idaho USA title. However, she quit her modeling career just after her marriage and focused on business.

Since 1999, she has been running the Wolfe Krest Bed and Breakfast located in Salt Lake City. More significantly, Kay Kinsey, alongside her husband, founded and runs the Teriyaki Grill restaurant in Ruston, Louisiana. She also actively takes part in managing her husband’s Arby’s franchises in the same area.

Some of these businesses are Eskimoe’s Ice Cream, Arby’s in Ruston, and a car dealership. Apart from that, Malone also owns two other car dealerships in a city in Utah in addition to three Jiffy Lube franchises, one Burger King store in Utah and another one in Idaho. To say the least, Kay has taken gross responsibility for running these businesses.

She puts a lot of her time into them and is recording decent success. Although her net worth is estimated at $75,000, the report is not verified as it is quite certain that she is worth more than that. We only believe most part of the business proceeds are being awarded to her husband, who currently has a gigantic net worth of $75 million.
