Bert and LeeAnn's first real connection sparked at a bowling alley in Los Angeles. Both were there with their friends, and Bert was immediately smitten by LeeAnn. In an attempt to impress her, he tried to bowl a strike but ended up sending the ball to the wrong lane. On his second attempt, he hit the gutter. And on the third try, he threw the ball so hard that it flew over the pins and hit the wall behind them.
LeeAnn wasn't too impressed by Bert's bowling skills, but she found his antics amusing. She decided to give him a chance and strike up a conversation. In her words,
"He was very loud, very obnoxious, very funny... He asked me for my phone number that night, which I gave him because I thought he was funny—not because I thought he was cute or anything like that—just because I thought he was funny. And then we went out on our first date like three days later."
She Has Better Senses, And A Sense Of Style Too:
On their first date, Bert asked LeeAnn to marry him, which she thought was a joke. But it turned out to be a prophecy, as they fell in love and got engaged within six months.
“He was so different than anybody I had ever dated before. He was so open and honest and vulnerable and sweet and kind—all these things that you don't really see when you first meet him because he's so loud," she recounts.

Both Bert and LeeAnn have been candid about their family life and parenting challenges, embracing their differences.

"We’re very different parents. She’s very strict. I’m very loose. She’s very organized. I’m very chaotic. She’s very thoughtful. I’m very impulsive ... We don’t always agree on everything but we always try to find a middle ground... Sometimes we argue in front of the kids but we always make sure to apologize and hug it out afterwards... We always try to show them that we love each other no matter what."

Bert Kreischer’s family is the comedian’s first priority, as stated in one of his interviews.

The Machine is a 2023 action comedy movie starring Bert Kreischer as himself and Mark Hamill as his father. "The Machine" is a 2023 comedy film with Bert Kreischer and Mark Hamill. It's inspired by Bert's true story of getting mixed up with the Russian mafia during college in 1995. Most importantly, LeeAnn herself has given her two cents on her depiction in The Machine:
"I’m happy for Bert and I think the movie is funny, but I don’t like how they made me look like a bitch. I mean, I’m not a saint, but I’m not that bad. And I wish they had consulted me more on the script and the casting. I mean, no offense to Stephanie, but she doesn’t look anything like me."
There you have it; The Machine might have been a number-one hit on Netflix, but the strained relationships between Bert, LeeAnn and their children were definitely fabricated. LeeAnn Kreischer is more than just Bert Kreischer’s wife; she is his partner in life! Even though their road hasn't always been easy, LeeAnn and Bert stay steadfast together for 20 years, raising two beautiful daughters, Georgia and Ila.
