Ty married her sweetheart, John Bell, after meeting him while he was attending University of Texas. He went into a drugstore to buy popcorn, met

They have been blessed with three children – Kristin, Matt, and Leanne. Just as John and Ty had three children, they each followed in their footsteps and also have three children.
