Jennifer Montana is an American. While there are no accessible facts about her origins or the kind of family she was born into, we know that she was born on July 7th, 1958. Her name at birth was Jennifer Sharon Wallace.
She Had A Career As A Model and Actress
It is widely noted that before Jennifer Montana gave into life as a wife and mother, she was a model and actress. She reportedly walked the runway a few times and famously appeared in a Sports Illustrated issue. As an actress, her IMDb page noted that she appeared in projects like Adventures with Kanga Roddy (1998), Home & Family (2012), Hollywood Health Report (2013).
Outside of modeling and acting, Jennifer is known to have dabbled into business. She owns Jennifer Montana Designs – a jewelry-making outfit that commenced operations in 2013. Before that, she had done some painting and crafts work.
Jennifer Married Joe Montanna In 1985
Sometime in the early 1980s, Jennifer Montana, who was at the time working as a model, was contacted for a commercial for Schick Razor. Legendary NFL quarterback Joe Montana was also called for the same commercial. The model reportedly had zero knowledge of who Joe was until they started working together. She subsequently fell for him and they began dating.
While on one of the several dates they went on, Joe asked Jennifer for her hand in marriage. This caught the model off guard as they had only dated for about six months at the time. Because of this, Jen opted to hold out. Not discouraged by the negative response he got, Joe tried again sometime later. This time, he took things up a notch by asking for Jen’s hand in marriage with a plane flying over with a banner. This time, Jennifer could not decline so she said “Yes” to becoming Mrs. Montana.
On an undisclosed date in 1985, Jennifer and Joe Montana made things official by becoming man and wife.
She Is The Third Woman To Marry The NFL Player
While Jennifer Montana’s marriage to Joe was her first, it was the third one for her husband. Joe’s first union was to a woman named Kim Moses in 1974. Kim and Joe come from the same hometown – New Eagle, Pennsylvania. The pair fell in love at a very young age and got married during Joe’s second semester at Notre Dame; he was just 18 years old at the time. The marriage ended up lasting for only three years, ending in 1977
After Kim, Joe Montana got married to Cass Castillo in 1981. Like his first union, this one also lasted for three years before packing up in 1984. It was a year after Joe’s divorce from Cass that he married Jennifer and the union is going strong.
The Couple Are Parents To Four Children
Jennifer and Joe Montana have four children together. Their first child is a daughter named Alexandra Whitney. She was born the year her parents got married in 1985. She has since made a living as a lawyer while living a life away from the limelight.
The couple’s second child is another daughter named Elizabeth Jean. She was born a year after her older sibling. Liz has followed in her mother’s footsteps to become a model. Nathaniel, Jen and Joe’s third child and first son, was born in 1989. He followed in his father’s footsteps to play American football but was unable to make it as a pro. The last child of the family, son Nicholas, was born in 1992. Like his father and brother, he also tried to have a sporting career. He played the game at the college level but was unable to get a professional contract when he graduated, thus ending his dream of carrying on the Montana legacy.
