Didn't talk as a toddler, so her father enrolled her into a theater
program, where she came out of her shell.
Though their characters had a love-hate relationship on Family Matters (1989), in real life she and Jaleel White were good friends during
the taping of the show.
Ate lunch with her co-star Jaleel White every day, and they shared an on-set tutor.
In July 2012, she gave birth to son John Ervin Jackson.
Kellie has moved back to Washington, DC, where she has
just launched a new fine-arts program for youth at Howard University's
Children's Theater. (November 2006)
In June 2010 she gave birth to daughter Hannah Belle Jackson.
When Family Matters (1989) was on hiatus and Kellie went back to her hometown, all her friends would ask questions about Jaleel White such as, "Is that boy really a nerd?" She was upset about it at first but later got used to it.
She has a younger sister, Marti, and a younger brother, Donte.
Born on exactly the same date as Reese Witherspoon.
