Hallmark Star Steve Byers Wife Jennifer Steede Is An Actress

Steve and Jennifer got married in 2001 after a few years of dating.

One of their mutual friends played cupid and set them up one night. Consequently, it turned out that they had a kind of mutual attraction.

Steve used to be a shy guy back then. According to him, he would never have approached her otherwise. 

Moreover, Byers was the one who proposed for the first time. He wore a garage sale tux gifted by his mom. The actor then waited for Jennifer to return from work and find a bow which he left in a jar of jewelry polish.

When Steede asked Steve about the surprise, he stepped out in all ruffled glory and proposed to her.
