Meet Tania Kratt, Chris Kratt’s Wife
Tania Kratt married the love of her life, Chris Kratt, on September 23, 2000, in Botswana, South Africa. That’s right, these Americans traveled all the way to the corner of South Africa to exchange their vows surrounded by Elephants. This can only mean that Tania shares her husband’s passion for adventure.
However, you should know that Chris was not Tania’s first husband. She was reportedly previously married to Craig Armstrong (now deceased) and had two children with him — Aidan and Nolan Armstrong.
The kids also care about animals and often volunteer with their stepdad. Here is a photo of the two angels celebrating Aidan’s birthday (August 29, 2013).
Tania’s husband, Chris Kratt, grew up in suburban New Jersey with his brother Martin watching nature shows on television. However, there were no wildlife shows specifically for children at the time. And it was then that they decided to create a show that would share “adventures with kids and introduce them to all these amazing animals” and perhaps also have an impact on saving endangered species.
So after Chris graduated from Carleton College with a degree in biology, the brothers set out to develop a wildlife television show. However, they initially received little interest, with many executives at television networks even dismissing their work as “cute” or “frivolous.”
But in 1993, Leo Eaton, then vice president of production at Maryland Public Television, asked to meet with them after he got tired of hearing his son say how great the demo the brothers sent in was. And voila! The brothers then started their first show, Kratts’ Creatures.
