You may often see Pepper Schwartz sharing her experiences with couples on Married at First Sight, but how much do you know about her married life with husband Fred Kaseburg. Does she practice what she preaches and who is her husband?
Read on Fred Kaseburg Biography to find out.
Meet Fred Kaseburg, Pepper Schwartz’s Husband
Fred Kaseburg and Pepper Schwartz began their love story in 2006. By 2014, the couple was engaged but decided to live apart. Why? Not because the couple didn’t want to live together, but because figuring out how to live together if they moved in together proved “difficult.”
At the time, Pepper was living with an assistant who helped her organize her life, while Fred was unfamiliar and uncomfortable with having an unrelated person in the household. Plus, throw in Pepper’s three large dogs—”we started to think we should leave them alone; maybe indefinitely,” the MAFS expert said.
The two eventually tied the knot on July 17, 2018, and began a new chapter. Reflecting on their wedding, Pepper shared that they had dinner at Ascend (her favorite restaurant with a view in Seattle) and then went to see Men in Black. “Just the kind of silly fun I was looking for. It was a very satisfying evening,” she added.
Before Fred, Pepper was married to her first husband, Arthur M. Skolnik. And after they split up, while Pepper continued to look for Fred, Arthur married Susanne Loven in 2003.
Sadly, Arthur passed away on February 5, 2020.

Fred Kaseburg’s age
Fred Kaseburg was born on February 21, 1945. That means he is 77 years old in 2022.
He is one year younger than his wife Pepper.
Fred Kaseburg’s work
Fred Kaseburg is now retired. In his younger years, Fred was a lawyer, specializing in Intellectual Property. He reportedly joined Intellectual Ventures as a patent attorney in 2004 and Merchant & Gould in 2001.
On August 25, 2021, Fred was even invited to be honored as one of 60 WSBA members to reach 50 years of practicing law. Celebrations were also held for members who joined the Bar in 1971 as well as in 1970.
Looking back at the cases he won, the most notable was certainly his fight with the government to turn a public park into a private park. Although he was not awarded ownership of the shoreline of Lake Washington, he and Keith Holmquist (who each owned a property on either side of the lot) were paid $800,000 by the city of Seattle.
Fred and Keith reportedly claimed the land in 2012 and put up signs in 2015 stating that it was private property. Under a law that went into effect in 1932, the beach actually belongs to them, but for years it was considered public — where many neighborhood kids learned to swim.
Also, as a young man, Fred was an avid skier.
For those interested, a lawyer in Seattle, WA makes about $100k a year. So that’s probably what Fred was making back then.
