Chris O’Donnell Wife: Who is Caroline Fentress?

Caroline Fentress is an elementary school teacher wife of American actor Chris O’Donnell. They got married in April 1997 in Washington, D.C., and have five children.

Caroline Fentress and Chris O’Donnell met at Boston College through her brother Andrew who was either Chris’ college roommate or just lived in his building.

When asked in his Redbook interview why he got married so young, he laid it out straight.

“I was being offered these huge films that would have taken my career to a different level, and I decided to put on the brakes,” he said. “I knew if I continued on that track, I probably wouldn’t have gotten married…I was in the right place earlier than I thought. I would think to myself, ‘Could I imagine not marrying her?’ And there was just no way.”

Caroline Fentress has dabbled in acting and has taken on other roles in the entertainment industry.

She made her television debut in the 2002 film Sunday, playing a minor role as a woman looking for her son. Years later, she appeared on an episode of NCIS: Los Angeles, in which her husband plays Special Agent G. Callen. Caroline portrayed Laura in the fourth episode of Season 7, “Command & Control.”
