Chris Kiffin went to Tampa’s Sickles High School before attending Colorado State University to play defensive lineman.
He married Angela Timmns after graduating from college with a degree in sociology in 2005, and they have four children. Their son Christian Monte Kiffin was born in 2013 after facing serious prenatal health issues, including hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
The family’s courage and faith were crucial to Christian’s recovery, and they remain a defining aspect of their story. On the other hand, Heidi Kiffin’s personal life seems to be a mystery as she has maintained a comparatively low profile.
