Brian Dietzen is putting family first with a heartfelt social media post celebrating his wife, Kelly Dietzen (née Scoby). The NCIS star, 47, has been married to Kelly since 2004, and together they share two children, daughter Clover and son Satchel, who they keep out of the spotlight.
In honor of Kelly’s birthday, Brian paused production on NCIS season 23 to share a glowing photo of his wife, writing:
“Happy birthday to the best thing that’s ever happened to me. This powerful, caring, giving, beautiful woman inspires me to be a better human, and makes me smile every day just by being herself… Love you always, Kel. Here’s to many many more together.”
Fans quickly flooded the comments with love, calling the couple “adorable” and wishing Kelly a wonderful year ahead.
This isn’t the first time Brian has publicly gushed about his wife. Last year, for their 20th wedding anniversary, he wrote: “I’m so glad you’re my person, and we get to do life together. Thanks for the smiles, for our family, for saying yes. Happy anniversary, my love.”
Kelly has been Brian’s rock through life’s highs and lows, including his 2020 stroke and subsequent cardiac surgery. He has credited her quick action and constant support during that frightening time, later telling Variety: “I was really blessed that I’d stayed healthy – and that Kelly was there when I needed her most.”
Two decades later, Brian still calls himself “fortunate” to have Kelly by his side – proof that their love story is stronger than ever.
