Kimberlin Brown, the beloved daytime star famous for her long-running role as the unforgettable Sheila Carter on The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful, has always balanced her high-profile career with a deep commitment to family. Married to Gary Pelzer since May 11, 1991, the couple built a life together that includes small-business ownership—they run a family avocado farm in California. Their greatest joys are their two children: daughter Alexes Marie Pelzer and son Nicholas James Pelzer. The family often shares warm moments together at red-carpet events, anniversaries, and quiet time on the farm. Here’s a closer look at Kimberlin’s kids.
Alexes Marie Pelzer
Born on January 31, 1994, Alexes Marie Pelzer is Kimberlin Brown’s eldest child and only daughter. A striking model with her mother’s charisma and confidence, Alexes has stepped into the spotlight in her own right. In 2022, she guest-starred on The Bold and the Beautiful (playing a character referred to as “Blonde” at Il Giardino), creating a special on-screen moment with her mom that fans adored. She has since returned for additional appearances, delighting viewers with her natural presence.
Alexes and Kimberlin share an incredibly close bond, frequently attending events together such as the Daytime Emmy Awards and the 50th anniversary of The Young and the Restless. On social media, Kimberlin regularly celebrates her daughter with heartfelt posts, calling her “beautiful inside and out,” witty, funny, and full of energy. In early 2025, Alexes welcomed a son named Colt Nicholas Pelzer, making Kimberlin a proud grandmother once again. The mother-daughter duo continues to support each other in family life and business ventures, often capturing joyful moments on Instagram.
Nicholas James Pelzer
Born on February 24, 1998, Nicholas James Pelzer is Kimberlin Brown’s son and the younger of her two children. While he keeps a lower public profile than his mother and sister, Nicholas remains an important part of the close-knit family. In 2020, Kimberlin joyfully announced his engagement to his now-wife, Kaila, and the couple married around 2021 in a beautiful celebration surrounded by loved ones. Kimberlin shared touching photos from the wedding day, highlighting the family’s happiness.
Nicholas has embraced fatherhood as well, and the family welcomed grandchildren starting in 2024, bringing even more love and excitement. He stays connected to the family’s entrepreneurial roots through the avocado farm and other ventures, enjoying a grounded lifestyle alongside his parents and sister. Kimberlin often speaks with pride about her son’s milestones, describing family gatherings filled with laughter and support.
Whether walking red carpets, filming together, or working on the family farm, Kimberlin Brown’s children—Alexes and Nicholas—represent the loving, stable heart of her world. In a career full of drama, her real-life role as a proud mom (and now grandmother) is clearly her favorite. The Pelzer-Brown family continues to grow and thrive, proving that behind every iconic villain is a devoted mother who cherishes her kids above all.
